Group Blog

    For my final task, I thought that it would be best to split from some of my past team members. I will be working with new people this time. I am choosing to work with Mila again because even after having to work with the rest of the group from home due to personal reasons, she was still able to pitch in and help get work done. I also chose to work with Maria and Hannah, who are 2 other friends of mine. I chose to work with them because they have been very responsible throughout the past. They are very productive and creative people. They have some very important qualities that I look for in teammates. Hannah and I will be acting and filming parts of our film. We have some experience in acting due to the last projects we have filmed. Hannah worked alone for the past projects, so she has witnessed many parts of the project on her own. I also have worked on music cuts, editing, and filming. I will be trying to help my group with as much as I can. Mila and Maria will switch roles of filming and editing throughout the process. In past projects, Mila has edited videos and clips with me. I think she will be a lot of help for the team. Also, Maria has a lot of experience with filming because she has taken the role of filming many clips in the past for other classes with me. My group and I chose to all contribute on filming because we want to better our filming skills. We also want to experience as many portions of the process as we can because we want to understand each aspect. Lastly, we are all very excited to work together an bring what we know to the group. We plan to make this project run as smoothly as possible!

Some of the fonts we were planning on using in our film include Alta California , IM FELL Double Pica SC, and Juniper Std. For Alta California, we would use it when we show our names. For example, when we write “Edited by: Hannah and Mila” it would be used on “Hannah and Mila.” It is a sticker-like decorative font that has a rugged look to it. It relates to the film we are creating because it is a story about a girl who has a rugged life and mentality. Also, the font has a youthful feeling attached to it which correlates to how the film is made about teenagers. It also has a scary and mysterious feeling to it, which matches the overall tone of the film. It relates to our thriller genre and emphasizes the mood that we are trying to implement.  For IM FELL Double Pica SC, we would use it for the title descriptions. For example, when we write “Edited by: Hannah and Mila” it would be used on “Edited by.” It is a serif small caps font with a rugged, traditional, and sophisticated appeal...

Music Changes

Today, we spent time picking new music. We messaged Khalid a while ago and he still hasn't seen ut. Since Khalid hasn’t answered our messages, so we didn’t to have any other artist options. My group and I didn’t think Frank Ocean would respond back or even on time. Because of that, we didn't attempt to message him. We started looking for some royalty free music. However, none of the options were good enough for our film in our opinion. We kept finding other ways that we can use so that the music would be good. Since we think music is one of the most important parts of the film. We found some potential ideas. We thought of the idea of remixing a song, so that it wouldn’t be copyrighted. We started editing the song we originally had which was "Coaster." We editing the speed and the sounds in the background to see if we can still use it. My group and I really wanted to use this song, so we are trying our best to make it work. After a lot of time, we made it possible for ...
