filming again...

Image
  We started filming the second scene over the weekend. It was hard to get my group all together at one time. Many times I had work. Trevor was out of town for a few days. While ely was free. Ayden was with his family. Other times we wanted to film when I had work and I couldn’t. Trevor and ely filmed some the parts without me. Although they didn’t finish all of them they still accomplished a lot. I then brainstormed about how I would accomplish editing the film. My ideas were pretty good in my head. My whole group is going to probably finish filming half of the film by the end of the week. Our goals haven’t always come out how we want them. But that is what makes us a team and closer together. We knew that we weren’t going to accomplish a lot due to spring break. So, we planned ahead. We scheduled out how we could finish before the deadline. This included the editing and maybe some days that we thought we could film but ended up not being able to. We then gathered all of our props and

Finally started to film

 Today was the first day we got started on filming. I had work all week so I had to plan on the days I didn't work. Ayden also had work so we all colabetrted on when we should schedule off for work. Today we worked on one scene. This was the scene where trevor was getting interviewed. This took a total of two hours because we kept messing up. We had to change a few angles and the lighting for this scene. I hope we don't mess up this many times when we are filming other scenes. We filmed this at elys house and made sure it looked like an interview. We set up Trevors costume by spraying a little water on him looking like he was sweating. We tried to get a microphone but we didn't have time to get one. By the time we finished filming it was late at night. We were tired from filming so we took a little break planning out next scene. We aren't planning on filming all the scenes in order. We planned our next time we are gonna film. This date will be on a weekend because we do

  We realized we never finished getting the rest of our props for the final scenes. We didn't  really need props in the first scenes so we never got around to it.  We had to go a few different stores to get them. We first got stuff for filming. We were going to borrow some props from Halloween stores. Then we went out to get some more props. We have to film this week when we are less busy. We also need it to be at night but since the time change, it gets darker later. We are going to finish out a schedule this weekend that is best fit for everyone. We were all really busy this week since it was the final few days before the quarter ending. We all decided it was best to film on Thursday so we could all be there.I got scheduled for work last minuted . We had to figure out how we were going to get permission to film at Trevors dads work place. I'm excited to be filling at the restaurant for our scenes. Our group is really fun to be around anyway so we don't even mind filming i

   Hello again, today my group was supposed to film again. My group met up at elys house. Trevor was supposed to plan today and what me and my group would do. But all of us forgot. Ayden had a family gathering so he couldn't make it today. But he was filled in on what we did. I started editing our script because there were some incorrect grammar. I then faced a problem with my group. It was really hard for us to cooperate. Ayden  couldn't be there today so my group filmed not as much as we would like to. He plans to just be the filmer, but my project really need more actors so we might have to use him as an actor. We actually didn't mess up as much as I though we were going to. Filming went quite smoothly and quick. Our group works well together so there wasn't any arguments or conflict. We finished in the afternoon while there was still day light. I had a good time filming and working on this first part of our film this past weekend. We are probably going to finish fil

planning when we are filming

 This weekend is when we plan to begin shooting our movie. I think we can shoot our movie in one or two days. My group bought the movie's props. Everyone of us was prepared to begin. My crew and I will be filming at trevors house on Saturday afternoon. His home will be prepared for the performances just as we require. Following that, we'll go shoot at Allison's place of employment. We hope Trevors dads workplace isn't very busy. As a result, we can record continuously. If it's still daylight, we can film at Trevors  as well. Our friend has agreed to only help us with setup and filming. We're restricting the amount of people who can help us since the last movie. But we're all still good friends and we still hang around. Everything will be well. We may also use Aydens props at his home. I'm hoping we can make use of it. It will, in my opinion, advance our movie. The videos may then be downloaded to a laptop and edited with I-Movie. I'm hoping that this

Started Planning today..

Last weekend was supposed to be our filming weekend. My organization was unable to gather everyone in time. My team had estimated that making our footage would take a few hours. I didn't want to rush it or run the risk of it failing. So my group and I made the decision to put it off till later. Despite this, we still talked about our strategy. I wanted to finish practicing our lines this week and get the timing and props ready. My crew must also make sure that the timing is accurate for our outside scenarios. Both the time and the lighting will be very important. This weekend, my friends and I will be shooting the incidents that occur at my house. My parents provided their OK for us to do that. At Trevor's father's workplace, we might be permitted to film. We don't know how busy Trevor's Dad's workplace will be this weekend, so I'm not sure if we'll film the sections there. We'll be able to stop by Trevor's Dad's workplace and see how busy it
