Production Blog: Almost Done!

 Hey everyone I hope you had a great weekend. If you have been reading all my blogs and keeping up to date, I just want to give you a big thank you. I appreciate it even though sometimes I know that it is boring. Well, probably the majority of my blogs are boring. Anyways, remember when I had mentioned in my previous blog that I was going to order a ski mask. Well change of plans, I did not order it. I know your probably saying gurl you change your mind too quickly. However, I will probably not getting at all and either wear no mask or a black material over my nose and down. Although since we are in the season of covid, I might wear a regular face mask. This way we are keeping more realistic to our time and also including worldly factors. And corona is a big factor in the world right now. Not a good one but it's here doing its thing. I am lucky and glad that up until now I have not gotten it. Although who knows maybe I did but I was just asymptomatic. Here's a little flashback. At the end of 2019 and beginning in 2020, I had gotten sick and it lasted for two months or more. My voice had sounded very different as well. I sounded like a pig struggling to snort. Anyways I think you get the point I was sick. Shortly after I had gotten better, that's when corona started to become a big thing in America. Many times when I look back and think about it, I wondered if maybe I had it but it just wasn't noticeable yet. Anyways I am fine now and I have not been sick like that ever since. So thank the Lords for that. Anyways please everyone continue to be safe and keep wearing your masks.

Genre Research: Thriller and Drama

 In the genre of a thriller, many things add to how a thriller film will come out. The angles, camera movement, Mise en scenes, etc. The most used lighting in thriller films is low-key lighting. It adds an ominous and mysterious feeling. The common angles used in a thriller are low and high. High angles make a character seem small or inferior. Low angles make a character seem big and powerful. Mise en scenes typically used in thriller movies are darker tone makeup as it sets a dark mood or props that help to build suspense. Elements often included in thrillers are suspense, anxiety, or excitement. This helps to bring viewers to the edge and draw their attention to the film more. Likewise, in the genre of drama, many things add to how the drama film will play out. The lighting, angle, and camera movements all add their spice of flavor.

Great Value Water Bottle Commercial

In doing this project I have learned a variety of new things. The first thing I learned was a way to do transitions. From watching many other commercials and clips as examples, I realized the way they did their transitions that made it more smooth and easy. In almost all of the videos, I watch they used a median to transition to the next scene. For example, making the camera pass a rock, or go into the water, or pass a cloud. In this way, they were able to transition to the next scene, in which you saw the camera coming out of the water, or finally passing the rock or cloud, and then it is like BOOM a whole new setting. This makes it look cool and pleasing and changes it up than from just using a direct jump cut. I also found out ways to crop a video without having to leave out the beginning or end. Meaning that I found a way in which I could crop out the part during the clip that I wanted to be removed without having to go from that clip and everything after or before. This was extrem...

The Process of creating my Walmart Great Value Water Bottle Commercial

On Thursday, October 29th, which was my brother's birthday, I started filming my commercial. Originally, I was supposed to be the actor and someone would have been filming me. However, my parents are at work during the day so they cannot help me. Teaching my younger brother to take the shots would also have been too much of a hassle. Therefore, I decided for me to film and my younger brother to be the actor. For the scene, he was wearing gym shorts and a shirt with a pair of sneakers. I told him what to do and showed him how to do it for some scenes. He gave me a bit of trouble to do some of the scenes but I was patient with him and we got through most of the scenes without much hassle. In the first scene, I had filmed the area of my backyard so it did not require his presence yet, so he was inside putting on his sneakers. During the second scene in which he was doing the running scene, we had to take it a couple of times. Sometimes we had to retake it because I forgot to end the s...
