Editing The Opening Sequence (production)

           Sonali and I decided to split up the editing process of our opening sequence. This means that Sonali edits one half of the opening sequence and I edit the other half. This way we both contribute to the editing process. Also, so there will not be pressure or stress which would happen if only one person is doing all the editing. I chose to edit the ending of the sequence because it consist of most of the scenes I filmed without Sonali so it was just easier for me to edit the ending. I only have five scenes to edit so far and the hardest thing is to make sure the scenes flow. I had to switch some scenes around to make it flow better and seem more realistic. I edited the lighting in most of the scenes to fit our opening sequence genre.We have not completely finished editing because we still need to film a couple more scenes. On April 11, Sonali and I will meet up and finish filming and editing scenes. We will film the scenes that consist of the titles in them. After, we will then start editing together and see if we need to change anything. By change anything I mean reorder the scenes or add/subtract more scenes if we need to.  Also, we are making sure our opening sequence stops at the appropriate time which is 1:59. Sonali and I are both using an app called iMovie to edit our opening sequence. However, Sonali is using her laptop to edit and I am using my phone to edit. To me it is easier to edit on my phone compared to my laptop. We plan on uploading our opening sequence on Youtube by April 14. This way we can embed the video on our blogs by April 15. Then, we will have enough time to check each other blogs to make sure our YouTube video is embedded properly.

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...
