Filming at my house

 I started filming on January 29 as I planned on my schedule. The first place being filmed is at my house. I'm filming the beginning scenes of the opening sequence. I first filmed an establishing shot before doing the acting scenes. This was easy to film. I stood outside of my house using my iPhone x and filmed an establishing shot of my house. After, I began filming the first scene which takes place in the bedroom. I'm the actor in the opening sequence so, my sister is filming the shots for me while I act. The first thing I did for acting was laying on my bed and pretending to read a book. After doing the shot which took five minutes. I moved to the next one where I checked my phone because I was getting a call. I answered the call but, I had to stand still because this scene had an over-shoulder shot. After those shots were being filmed, I did a dialogue of me talking to someone on the phone. This took a couple tries to do because I kept messing up the script. This was the hardest that had to be filmed on this day because, when recording the conversation on the phone the audio wouldn't get picked up, so, I had to keep redoing it many times until I could hear the conversation on the phone. This took around 35 minutes or more to do. Next time I should have just done a voice-over when editing it to make it easier and make the audio clearer. That was all that I did for filming on this day. It took about an hour and thirty minutes to get all these shots. I started at three pm and ended at four thirty-six pm. Thank you for reading see you in the next blog bye!

Doing a film review + adding changes to it

 On March 11 I had my sister do a film review of my opening sequence. My sister reviewed it and said that she liked the beginning shot and the music chosen for the beginning of the opening sequence. However, she did make a few suggestions to change the lightning to make it have a more mysterious vibe. So, one of the first changes I made was to adjust the lighting to darker. To do this I clicked on my opening sequence went to the bottom of the options and chose "adjust". With these options, I was able to adjust my lighting to make it have a more mysterious vibe. She also suggested to increase the volume of the main character talking because she couldn't understand what she said in the opening sequence. I went into CapCut to fix these by increasing the volume on the parts where the main character is speaking. To do this I clicked on the audio of the scene where she was talking and there was an option to increase the volume so, I just adjusted the volume to higher to make su...

Production Blog choosing the app, importing photos, and music

I started to begin working on my All About Me commercial. I'm really excited to work on it because it's my first time making a commercial. The first thing I did was look for an editing app. There were many to choose from so, this process took a while. Many of them looked hard to use. I asked my teacher which one and she recommended capcut. I never used capcut before so, it was an interesting experience. When I got into the app it was a little bit confusing. I figured it out and made a project on there. I named it "AICE Media Studies All About Me commercial." I chose the videos and the photos I already planned to use. I needed to add the music. This was hard for me because I didn't know how to get the music. I asked my sister and she told me I had to download it. I downloaded both of my songs and imported them into capcut. I started to work on cutting my videos to show the parts I wanted to use. I did this for all of my videos because most of them were too long and...
