The week of Filming

Technology:

Our group mostly used our phones and we also used the computer to help create our branding.

I learned about the different lighting and camera angles

I did look at a youtube video to help me use blender to make my brand but I found a better source to help make it easier.

We were heavily influenced by Unhinged which helped us shape our opening film together.

We encountered a few difficulties with our shots because we wanted continuity in our shots and I was not wearing the same pants so we had to reshoot a couple of shots because of that. Another Difficultie is that we felt that what ideas we had weren't really put together well so we decided to use a whole new different genre thriller.

There were a lot of times during this process when we were making it seem harder than it actually was until Mrs.Landis Explained it in a way that we can understand better.

We had to incorporate some new words into our script or that we added new stuff in our scenes to make it more symbolic.

 Day 1 My group and I were able to complete 5 of our shots for our opening scene. Most of our shots took a couple of tries, But all in all this was a great experience. Day 2 We did experimental shots because our camera person was not here. Day 3  we filmed the rest of our shots Day 4 We found out that the shots were messed up so we had to refilm them Day 5  We fixed our error and we were able to finish on time.
