Production Blog: Filming Day Two

 Today was the second day of filming for my upcoming film, and it was another exciting day on set. I filmed a variety of scenes, both during daylight and at night, to capture the different moods and emotions of the characters. First up was a night scene in Marty's Lair. The set was dark, and I had to use a lot of artificial lighting to create the right atmosphere. It was challenging, but my crew worked together as a team to get the shots we needed. Next, I filmed a scene in Django and Marty's criminal lair at night. This scene was intense, and I had to make sure that I captured the characters' emotions and the tension in the room. The lighting was dim, and I used a lot of shadows to create a sense of mystery. After a quick break, I moved on to a scene at the Jetson residence during the day. The set was bright and airy, and I used natural lighting to capture the warmth of the space. I wanted to contrast this scene with the darker, more sinister scenes we had filmed earlier. Back in the criminal lair, I filmed another scene during the day. This time, I used brighter lighting to show the characters in a more vulnerable state. It was interesting to see how the lighting affected the mood of the scene. One of my favorite scenes of the day was in Jessica's room. The set was beautifully decorated, and we used a lot of natural light to create a dreamy, ethereal look. It was a lovely contrast to some of the darker scenes I had filmed earlier. We also filmed a scene in the primary bedroom, which was much darker in tone. We used a lot of shadows and artificial lighting to create a sense of danger and suspense. It was challenging to film, but the end result was fantastic. Finally, I wrapped up the day with a scene in the living room. The set was cozy and inviting, and I used warm lighting to create a welcoming atmosphere. It was a nice note to end on after a day of filming some intense and emotional scenes. Overall, the second day of filming was a success. I worked hard to capture a variety of scenes with different moods and emotions, and I can't wait to see how they all come together in the final movie.

   Today was our second day of filming on October 6th, 2021. Our group was excited to finish our Adidas commercial. Jade Walrave and I changed into our costumes before heading to our filming set. The track, our filming set, was not very busy so we began finding an area with good lighting to film our final scenes. The final scenes we needed to film was the action scene where Jade and I were in a head to head match. We first began by filming a low angle of me and jade running in order to show off the adidas brand cleats. After this we filmed a few of my shoes alone in order to get the perfect shot. Between filming each scene we would go back and review the scene in order to change anything wrong in it. We ended up re-filming the first scene around 5 times before capturing the correct shot. Next we grabbed orange cones to set up the “goal” for our shot. We began practice our blocking for the scene and making sure the angles were correct. It was difficult to originally figure out ...

  Making my film takes a lot of planning and attention to detail. With a schedule of two shooting days, there is a lot of work to do to make sure everything runs smoothly. Here are some of the extra details I had to consider when planning my five-minute film. After I identified the specific locations I will be filming at, including both interior and exterior scenes I still had to work out the details. I first had to e nsure that I have permission to film at each location and was in compliance with any local regulations. Next, I must c onsider the time of day I will be shooting each scene and plan accordingly. Make sure I have all the necessary equipment, including cameras, lighting, and sound equipment. Identify all the participants in my film and make sure they are available on the scheduled shooting days. Establish health and safety protocols to keep everyone on set safe and healthy. Provide personal protective equipment, such as masks and gloves, to all cast and crew members. Se...

  For my commercial assignment, I decided to pair with Jade Walrave, Ely Silverberg, and Mya Hauser.  For this commercial, I wanted to choose some of my peers with who I knew I was comfortable working with and filming with. I met Ely and Mya last year during my general paper class and we often worked on many group projects together. We always would finish our projects on time and we worked great together as a team. `I also met Jade last year during AICE Testing and she sat in front of me. We ended up becoming friends and hanging out the whole summer. After reviewing our schedules we discovered we had AICE Media together. I knew we would work well together as we already got along with each other outside of school. Together our group will function well because each member has their own specialty and skill set. Ely is good at concepts and creating a layout and design for each scene as well as the production as a whole. Mya is better at scriptwriting and is great at relating the s...
