Planning-Film Pitch

Image
  A film pitch is a synopsis of your film with things like character mentions, location listings, relevant film ideas and why your movie should be chosen. Pitches are great because you are in the center with people who can fund or vouch for your film. Film producers engage audiences by creating characters with relatability. They also can show characters in hard situations that could further relate with the audience.  You can recognize film conventions when you see the title of the film and the company.

Final Draft of Film

Post-Production (3)

 This will be my final blog post discussing the production of the film unfortunately. For the film we have begun to add the eerie sounds we planned on adding as seen in our storyboards and scripts. We have also started to add effects like zoom in and out and fade in and out for some scene we think will leave the audience surprised. We have also added the credits and production company logo to our film so we are basically done with the film. It has been a long and great journey working on the film.

Post-Production (2)

 This week for post production we started editing on a software called iMovie. This application is on Apple devices and it has lots of resources that we can use in order to help edit our film. The device we’re using iMovie on is a MacBook because it has more desktop features. So far we have stitched all the videos we have recorded together. We will begin adding other things to our film later on in the week.

Post-Production(1)

 Post production is the work done on a film after the recording portion has already been complete. Post production is used to cut footage, put together footage, adds sound effects, and visual effects. Post production is necessary because without it basically every film is incomplete. Without editing all of these clips together most movies would end up being a shell of what it was originally thought out to be. We will be starting post production this week. The reason why I showed many examples of what post production is was to show the importance of what we will be doing this week.

Production Week (6)

 Today is the final day of production week and me and my team filmed everything we wanted to. My teammates cannot wait to publish our first draft of the film. Since it is the final day of production week, I will show you guys some cut content from our film and when you see the draft try and figure out why and what we replaced it for. This week was very successful and fun experience with my teammates.

 Today we didn't do much for production week because we filmed all of the scenes, we need so today I will show bloopers and behind the scenes footage and pictures. We are at the end of production week, and it is almost time to post our drafts. Here are the bloopers and behind the scenes scoops. In the examples I will show short clips of us getting ready and the technology we are using to film.  

Production Week (4)

 Today we did lots of outside shooting so we will have lots of footage to show. Our camera men did great jobs today. The scenes are still just rough drafts so if needed we will go back and polish some of these. Here are some of the videos we shot today!  Today we did lots of outside shooting so we will have lots of footage to show. Our camera men did great jobs today.

 Day 3 of production week was a short one because we didn't have much time to film because of the off weather. Today we mainly focused on polishing the scenes inside the home. We used a couple of extras today. We also have some behind the scenes photos to show off. 

Production Week (2)

 On the 2nd day of production week, we got two shots that were previously shown as bloopers done. We also started talking about other scenes a how we can manipulate the sets to make them look as good as possible. Below I will show you some of the newly worked on scenes. 

Production Week (1)

 Today is the first day of production week and we will finally start putting our script and storyboard to the test. We had lots of bloopers today because we had a hard time finding the perfect spot to capture these moments on film. We have setting of the park and my team member Ashtons house as our two set pieces. Below here are some bloopers from today.

A ring at the doorbell is heard and the comedian goes to get the door. The comedian gets the door, and a student is there talking about a fundraiser. "The comedian makes an insensitive joke".
