Filming- Sunny day

Filming Blog- Hard day at the field 

On Wednesday, October 5th I started filming with my groupmate Onara. She came over and we started finishing up our storyboard and planning blog. After that we hopped on my golf cart getting ready to leave for filming. First we had to load all our materials on the golf cart. After we did that we started heading over to the field. Once we got to the field, we had to throw all our stuff over the fence because it was locked. Then we had to climb over the fence and climb under the fence. We soon realized that we had forgot to get Powerade for our commercial. So then, we had to throw everything back over the fence, and jump over the fence once again. We loaded everything in the golf cart and drove to Walgreens to see if they had Powerade. Walgreens didn't end up having PowerAde either so we went to 7/11.  7/11 ended up not having Powerade either. Then we went to a mini mart which also didn't have the Powerade. Finally, we got to Publix and they had multiple Powerade choices to choose from. Once we left Publix, we got in the golf cart and drove back to the fields once again. We had to throw everything over the fence and climb over/under the fence. Once everything was situated we began filming and it only took about 10 minutes minimum. We shot every scene needed in our commercial very easily. We had it planned out to where it shouldn't have been to difficult to shoot. In the end, we got all our filming done in a timely manner.

My perspective of the editing

Image
 As we know from last project and this one, onara is the editor and camera woman while i’m the actor and idea person. With our final task coming up we have both realized that i’m going to need to learn editing. This is because the video will be longer than anyone we’ve ever done, which will make it trickier for onara to edit. Longer clips to edit, longer clips to film, transition etc. So i decided that i would be with onara while she edits this time. This is so in the future i know how to help her and i can learn by watching her. What we did is for the first part of editing which was cutting the scenes. Basically just cutting the scenes to be shorter so we didn’t take as much time in the video. This was easily done on the iPhone just by clicking edit on the camera app. Then she started putting the clips together. She put the clips together with an app called cap cut. I downloaded it myself so i can work on editing videos together in my camera roll. After that she added the sound to...

Group Blog

  I chose onara to work with for many reasons. The first reason is i see her almost everyday afterschool for volleyball. So i would be able to shoot with her after volleyball or before outside of school. Secondly, Our parents are friends. They trust that we will be both safe in either of there hands. If i had a partner whos family i didn't know, my parents wouldn't be to comfortable leaving me in their care. Another reason why i chose her is because she's good at finding the needed and correct research. If we need to find something ASAP she is able to quickly find it. She also is a good value to the project because she knows how to shoot. What i mean is she knows how to recognize angles and shoot them clearly. What i can bring to the table is resources. We have already thought about our commercial and what we were thinking i can provide the resources we need for it. Such as the props needed and the transport needed to go where we need for shooting. I also am an idea creator...
