The Final Touches

Image
For us all, the editing process was a crucial part of creating our film. We spent many hours reviewing footage, piecing together the story, syncing audio and video, and color grading. It was a time-consuming process, but we knew it was necessary to create the final product we wanted. One of the challenges we faced was deciding which shots to use and in what order. We had to make sure that the story flowed well and that each shot added to the overall narrative. We also had to be mindful of pacing, tone, and mood. Another challenge was finding the right music for the film. We wanted to use music that fit the mood and tone of the scenes, but we also had to be mindful of copyright laws. We spent a lot of time searching for royalty-free music that fit our vision. Throughout the editing process, we had to stay in constant communication with each other. We had to make sure that everyone was on the same page and that we were all working towards the same goal. This meant being open to feedback ...

Specific Camera Angles

 In the past two years of this class, we have talked about filming techniques. This is because there is a large emphasis being put on them. Because of the emphasis that I have been taught, I want to put a lot of thought into how I film this project. The first thing I need to do is make sure that I have the right camera angles. In the classroom, we watched many film examples. I have chosen a handful of filming techniques that I want to use based on these film extracts. They might not be put in the final film, but they are the ones that I felt might be beneficial to add. The first is the eye-level shot. There is nothing fancy about it, but it is very common in films and because of that, I want to add it to ours. It is almost exclusively a close-up or medium close-up shot, meaning that it is taken from a relatively close distance, and leaves most of the emphasis on the actor. Because it is a relatively close shot, I want to use it in our shot focusing on the victim. The next is an ove...

Our Prop Setup

Image
As a student working on a film project with my classmates Max, Alec, and Denton we needed a prop murder weapon to use in one of our scenes.  We decided to use a knife as it was a common tool and easily available to us.  Using a knife as a prop for a murder scene was not an easy task as it posed a safety risk if not handled carefully.  Before we started filming, we made sure to practice using the knife safely.  We learned the proper techniques for holding and manipulating the knife, as well as how to keep it away from our bodies while using it.  We also ensured that the knife was blunt and had no sharp edges to prevent any accidents during filming.  Once we felt confident in our abilities to handle the prop, we incorporated it into our scene.  As the actor holding the knife, I had to make sure that my grip was firm but not too tight, to prevent any slippage or accidents.  I also had to be mindful of the angle and position of the knife to ensure tha...
