Deciding Film Days


Today, my group and I were deciding what days we will be filming. This was difficult for our group to set up dates specifically for many reasons. Brianna takes martial arts classes several days throughout the week. Alejandro works at his job 6 days a week. I have dance everyday of the week and have dance competitions within the next few weekends. Macaria is one of the only teammates that can really fit our potential dates easily because she doesn't do much things afterschool. Based on this, we wrote down all the days we can not and came up with a few days. We have come up with February 18th in the afternoon until sundown. We have also thought of March 10th through 12th. We will have to work efficiently and productively to finish since we don't have that much time. Thankfully, I know Brianna and Macaria are good workers, so I can count on us to be productive. Alejandro is not as responsible, so I worry a little for how much he will contribute to the group. Based on how he works with us the next few weeks will show if he is dedicated. My group and I will be filming for sure on February 18th. With further discussion, we will most likely meet March 10th through the 12th. We may also be able to film within the next weeks depending if my dance competition makes my dances all in one day of scattered through the weekend. I have been lucky in the past and had ones that were all in one day, so we could film on the other day of the weekend. We have been trying to fit my schedule the most because we are filming at my house. With that being said, my mom wouldn’t let them come to our house without us being there. I’m hoping my group will be able to complete this during the short time we have.

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 ...
