Props We Are Going To Use (production blog)

           I have written a list of props needed for this film to seem realistic and stay organized. Sonali and I only know the main props we are going to use. The props that are the main are missing person's flyers, duct tape, rope, phones, and a water bottle. We are not sure if we wanted to add on to our props list or keep it how it is now with just 5 props on the list. I already had most of these props on the list since most of these things I already had at home. The first prop I found is phones which of course is self explanatory. However, if it is not self explanatory to you, I have 2 phones which both can be used as a prop. The next prop I looked around my house for is duct tape which I found. I have yet to find any rope so if Sonali does not find any, we could buy some or improvise. Instead of using rope we could use zip ties because I have some at my house. The next prop is a water bottle which is one the easiest props to get since it is a necessity to have in my life. Last but not least the missing person's flyer prop. Sonali and I have yet to start printing those out for many different reasons. The first reason is that we have not started editing my sister's information on one. The second reason is that we do not know exactly how much copies we need. The third reason is that we have yet to establish who is printing it. The fourth reason is that since we are  starting to film next week, we can wait until then so we will not lose any copies if we were to print it out. Moreover, a prop we may add is a knife to make the kidnapping scene look more threatening and realistic. The knife would be the reason why the kidnapper got away with pulling the victim in his car quietly. Basically, the knife would help the audience see the one of the many reasons why the kidnapper held control and why the victim did not try to escape every chance she got.

Research : How to make a short film

Image
        This informational video helped opened my eyes to more knowledge on how to produce our own film. While watching I noticed I already knew somethings like when they were talking about the creation of films. However, "How to make a short film" video gave a lot of new tips that will help me in the production of our short film journey. The production tips and post production tips in this video were given by a expert in film. One tip that caught my attention is when the expert mentions to not do it if you can’t pull it off. Another tip is that it is key to mess with the audience's mind and emotions. The expert explains that it is either all or nothing and to not do something half or partially. This kind of reminds me of this expression, " Go big or go home". This expression implies it's all or nothing which is why the film expert explanation reminded me of it.  Adding unnecessary things to a scene because it looks like a cool element to your fi...

Comparing Le Jetree, the short, and 12 monkeys, the full length movie

Image
 PART ONE- So from the video we learned the 12 monkeys is supposed to be a remake of Le Jetee. However, nothing could ever be recreated the way Le Jetee was. We believe the elements of mis-en scene camera shots and angles were expressed in le jetee that weren't quite the same in 12 monkeys. The information that We gather from this video included the a dispassionate tone carried in Le jette from the film narrator. It added an accentuation in the audio to the rest of the film and images. The exaggerated audio such as percussion sounds and a pounding heartbeat. These tools created a more dreamlike film with the genre being a sci-fi filled film this plot included a mediation of the passage of time. They did this by using closeup shot to exaggerate images and characters faces and emotions expressed throughout the film helped create the dreamlike idea that was portrayed. It gave an outlook on war times before during and after of a war through the life of a man ( a slave) that could trave...
