Mis-en-Scene


My group and I have been very productive throughout this project. This has helped us move faster through the process of this film. However, we decided to go back and refilm some scenes. This is because we want to make this project the best possible. We realized that Hannah and Brianna's outfits did not suit their characters' roll in this film. They originally thought about some clothing that they own, but unfortunately, they could not find where it is at the moment. Because of this, we decided to go shopping for new customes at the mall. We all agreed that our best choice was to go to the mall because we would have more options in one place. We started at H&M looking for some jeans. Surprisingly, we could not find anything appropriate and that we liked at that store. We left this store and started heading to American Eagle hoping to find other options there. We all felt hungry on our way there and unanimously decided to stop by the food court. After eating, we walked straight to American Eagle. As we were approaching the store, we realized that they had just closed for the day. We then agreed that at that point it was better to go online shopping. We went on Levy's and found some pants that we think will work best. My group and I understand that we would need to take a few steps back due to the last-minute change of plans. However, we know that this would be an important improvement in the quality of our film. Our goal is to film this coming Sunday or Monday, but we are waiting to confirm everyone's availability. We are all looking forward to continue working together throughout the rest of the filming process.

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 ...
