Planning For Our Short Film

        Our props in the first scene would be dishes, trash, and food. The main prop in our short film is a telephone. In the last couple scenes the props would be keys, paper, and a Christmas tree. We will start filming over Christmas break because it is more convenient for the both of us. We will start filming on December 27 through 29. We are using 3 days to film the scenes that we are both in. This is because we want to have time to record scenes over when we make errors and mistakes. Also, to have enough time to film and go to the different settings for each scene. We have have about five different settings in our short film. One of the main settings is at my house (the mother and daughter lives) and it shows the kitchen, living room, and bathroom of that house. The other main setting is a different house (the friend's house) and a bedroom. The other two settings is the least important because they only last for a couple of seconds. The least important settings are the sidewalk of a neighborhood and a park called Holiday Park. We will film these in the morning the day of filming because there will be less people to interrupt our filming process. Also, we will check the weather app every day of filming to make sure it's not super cold to film.The last setting is in a moving car which is an important contribution to the film. For the costumes of the actors it is very simple and casual. The verbal abusive mother will be dressed in all black in the first scene but in the other scenes she will be wearing jean pants and a blouse. The daughter being abused will be wearing baggy clothes like an over sized hoodie and baggy mom jeans. The friend of the daughter will be wearing tights and a regular fitted shirt. The friend's mother will be wearing black pants, a blouse, glasses, and a jacket. Our back up plan is to just have me film everything on my own and use my friends as the actors while Ciaya does the editing. We will not have our masks on but will hand sanitize whenever we need to.

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...
