Blog Post 23 - Second Day of Filming - 3/11/2022

As promised previously, the second day of filming went down! We got a different change of setting as well! We went from the park to the back parking lot of our school which was a much needed change of scene. We mainly settled on this as it was much easier to film and in reality, it was practically the same thing as the original setting. 






Here portrayed are photos of us getting into the car in the parking lot of the school behind the football field of the school. It was four in the car. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it that day so I wasn't able to film. But a lot of my thoughts and ideas were present at the time! For starters, a lot of my ideas with how camera work should've been used was indeed present. Like the scene where the driver slowly starts to find out what happened to the other passengers like with the frame focused on the driver as it then slowly moves towards everyone else as he has a nervous breakdown.








Here we have more photos of us filming. The first photo shows our cameraman, Alejandro, making sure that everythings set and ready to film. Both the second and the fourth photos show us driving across the Parking Lot filming the scene of the driver and all the passengers in the car driving through the highway and going through the underpass. The third image being the driver and the rest of the passengers reviewing the footage on Alejandros phone in front of the car. Making sure if its possible that we need to retake that scene again or no. 





Here are some photos of the people entering the car being filmed as they're monologue is alos being recored as they're speaking about events that are highly related to the overall plot of the film. We were also filming everything from every angle and side of the car to specify all of the passengers entering the car and to show how many are entering.


So heres just a photo of all of the passengers after filming! Just us celebrating a good filming day after the amount of retakes that needed to be done, but thankfully we finished! We've begun to review the footage as of last week but thankfully I think we can call it a wrap for now!

Blog Post #7 - Thoughts on Shang-Chi - 11/16/2022

  Mise En Scene in Shang-Chi For my seventh blog post, I'll eventually be talking about use of the four main Mise En Scene areas in Shang-Chi. One being Setting, essentially being where the movie is set and the overall tone and mood that the location makes the viewer in the audience feel while watching the movie. Secondly, the lighting which is another important factor which also contributes towards the mood of the movie, such as how bright or dark something is. Thirdly, there's costume which is also contributes, such as how colorful or just what they wear can make someone feel something. Finally, staging, just how something is presented on a movie can also make the viewer feel a mood. Today I'll be covering how these four factors are presented in the movie and what they make the viewer feel.        For starters, the setting in this movie overall makes the viewer watching feel peaceful or tranquil. The movie is overall set within the country of China, throughout...

Blog Post #6 - Sound Project! - 10/26/2021

  So I have not blogged on here in a while! Been nearly a month now surprisingly, but I've had a bunch of stuff like school work & a bunch of stuff happening in my family and just overall, my life's been in craziness. But fairly recently, I got back into the world of media studies by working on a project for the last two weeks alongside two other students related to sound & to create a short little story from it, a foley stage project you could call it! We had all gotten together & managed to reach a consensus on what we wanted to do pretty quickly, we essentially wanted to start off with a person walking to his home with a car behind him that had two people in it, person from the car would then leave & begin to follow the person walking home & then hit them with a bat, they'd then return to their car & be congratulated for their work.  So, to begin off, we began to record by firstly recording the walking, which legit took us like a day. So how we di...

Blog Post #30 - Beginning to Edit - 3/29/2022

  So onto the editing part of our film! So for this part, me and Alejandro decided to take a step back and let Abdullah take a step in as he's the most exeprienced here when it comes to editing and actually knows how to do editing and since he was in charge of editing for our previous sound project. I do think that he's capable of creating something wonderful since a lot of his previous stuff is pretty good! Me and Alejandro helped out a lot with how to lay out the shots and the Videography of the shooting process. I also helped primarily on the tone and mood of the film along with helping with the costume designs with Abdullah helping with the sound as well. We did help Abdullah in many ways though, mainly just by giving suggestions on what he could do with the editing process and just any corrections that were overall needed to make it better and to fix any errors and just overall make it a nice good film opening! This allows us to truly let our creativity out there into the ...
