Filming blog 2 : Music video

-

Hey guys, back with part 2 of my filming blog. Last blog I described how the scenes taken at the mall were taken. This blog will be about the other scenes, like the ones where the actors were at work, and the track. Like we put on the storyboard, when recording the scenes taken at Lotus Chinese Kitchen we started with a reverse zoom. Several clips were taken there of the actor doing different tasks. These later came in good use when editing the video together. One of them was a tracking of the actor walking towards the table with the POV of the customers. The ones taken at the track of the actor running were shot at a low angle. The dancing videos where taken standing across the dancers. These shots showed different situations where the woman were independent and didn't depend on people. The actor at the mall purchased her own meal. The dancer were an all girls group. These women were lead by a woman and they execute each routine beautifully. The other actor on the track will be seen in the Olympics one of these days. She practice by herself since making it big is up to herself. The actor seen at Lotus Chinese Kitchen was seen working. This is the type of independent women that is being seen more and more now. Women has stopped depending man to be the breadwinner of the family. That's all for today.

Au Revoir.

Genre research: All the Bright Places

-

  Welcome back to our next and final genre research movie. The movie we chose was All the Bright Places.     The first thing we noticed about the opening sequence was the location since they were on a bridge.     The viewers can automatically assume that the bridge has some meaning to one of the main characters since she was standing on it. We want our location to have importance to the opening scene. We want people to be able to guess that the location holds an importance but not exactly what’s going to happen just by seeing the location. Viewers don’t learn the true meaning of the location in the opening sequence however they do learn the meaning of it by the first 10 minutes. Since we’ll only be filming the opening scene we will show the true meaning at the end. The opening scene only was at one location. It did go by fast but however our video will need more time to make sure the point goes through properly. The Mise-en-Scene matched perfectly. The male main...

Research blog: Commercial

 Hey guys, I'm back with another blog. When I found out I had to do a commercial million of ideas came to mind. I than shortened the list to sport drinks, however, choosing which kind of sport drink was a no brainer. What better brand to do than Gatorade. Before starting my Gatorade commercial, I did some research on what other producer have done in sports drink commercials. Majority of the commercials the actors are partaking in physical activity.  The Mise-en-Scène in each commercial are very similar, the costumes consist of tennis shoes, leggings, tights, shorts, a sports bra, loose t-shirt, bathing suit or a sports teams uniform. The settings are sometime, inside of the gym, or outside on the court or field. Props are usually simple things like a ball, football, basketball etc. , a towel and the drink.  Based on the setting of the commercial, the lighting changes. The drink usually look real cold and icy. While the actor looks hot and sweaty. Some other conventio...

Genre research: Black Panther

  Welcome back to my blog. These next few blogs will be about movies my group and I chos e to research and use to build our opening scene on.   The first  movie we chose was Black Panther. The first thing that the audience  hears is a child and their parent voice.  The story turned out to be the  background  story  of where the dad is from Wakanda. Which  leads the movie to a sandbox  type  of thing that  demonstrated  and drawn out everything the dad was saying as he was saying it.  Once the story was done being told, the year and place of the Movie was displayed on the scree n, 1992  California.  During this  the audience can clearly see the relationship between the characters. Since when the king walked in the two people who were  previously in the room bowed down to him and had to hide their weapons.  The Mise-en- Scene  also made sense. The  two men  living in California wo...
