Creating the Website

I decided to create the website out of Ciaya and I. I am a very creative person so I thought it would be the best opportunity for me to create it. I have never created a website before so I was nervous. I used a website called wix.com which creates websites for people for free. This is my first time creating a website and using Wix. As I was making decisions on how to create the website I was learning something new. The beginning was more Wix doing than mines. It helped me pick a theme and tabs for the short film website. Wix asked me a whole bunch of questions and my answers created our website. I went with a more movie like and bright theme. The tabs of the website is so people can directly find what they are looking for without searching for anything. There are seven tabs for our website. The tabs are called home, about, rewards & reviews, contact, cast & crew, social media, and gallery. Any information a person is looking for there is a tab guiding them into the right direction. Everything was easy to edit for our website. Wix provided everything like the layout, theme, etc. All I had to do was enter our short film's information and website complete. When I published the website I did have an obstacle sadly. The obstacle was the website domain name contained my first and last name because I signed up on Wix with my google account. I started to panic because I thought I could not change it and had to start all over. I explored and played around with all the edit my account tabs. Finally, I found out that all I had to do was change my first and last name in Wix to dear mother. The domain name changed to our short film name after I did that and I was so relieved.

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...
