Final task- CCR

Image
I hope all those watching enjoy this creative project as much as I enjoyed filming!   

Our final project!!

Everything has been finished! I'm overjoyed to be able to share that our film is now available for viewing. It's been a long journey, but I'm relieved to say that we've arrived at our goal. There have been many highlights and downsides throughout the film. I'd want to discuss and reflect on it now that we've finally completed it.  Bonding, acting, and this experience have all been positive aspects of this process for me. Because we spent so much time together throughout the process, I was able to form stronger bonds with my creative team. Everyone seemed to get closer, and we were able to bond over shared interests and goals. Filming was fantastic for a variety of reasons, including the fact that everyone had the opportunity to participate. It was so cool seeing how each shot came out on camera! It also has made me feel more confident for the first AICE paper we will be doing next month.  Finally, leaving things till the last minute and racing to finish them was

Film review edits and revisions

The film review drew a lot of attention to flaws in our film that we wanted to address as soon as possible! When we were making this film, our top priority was to make it better than earlier efforts so that our audience could enjoy it. Reshooting, improving transitions, and sticking to the subject were among the flaws we discovered while reviewing the picture. It was challenging to reshoot because we had to pick a day to complete the shots and have everyone wear the same outfit as previously. We were on a tight schedule because some people couldn't find a ride, but we worked with what we had and got it done in the end. We had to compare the new material to the old footage to ensure that the necessary changes were made and that we wouldn't have to refilm anything. The transitions used for the film while we were editing were the second difficulty. Because our editor utilized the same transition across the entire film, it appeared monotonous and unprofessional. This was not her fa

The best part- music

Production has been completed and I realized I never spoke on behalf of our soundtrack for our opening sequence.  My other group members may have talked about it ealrier but it slipped my mind while editing.  Given our thriller/scary theme, it would be most appropriate to find suspenseful and eerie soundtracks to accompany our songs. I decided to research more of that feeling when looking for music. The entire premise revolves around two girls enjoying a fun reunion with an unexpected audience. The majority of the film will be cheery, but when the stalker appears, the eerie and disturbing soundtrack is employed. Because there will be a lot of dialogue throughout the movie, the background music will be lowered, but it will be heard.  Since we have dialogue during the film, it was best we had songs without lyrics.  Because many of these soundtracks are copyrighted, it's crucial to  read the descriptions before using them.  Each group member choice different songs for the final outcom

Our reviewed film!

After a month of shooting, re-filming, and editing, the project is almost complete. We're relieved and grateful that the project is almost finished. For us, the entire process of making the film was pleasant. Although some areas, such as filming, proved to be more difficulty. Our schedule gave us the most trouble because everyone was so busy. We fixed it in the end and it worked perfectly. The initial planning, storyboarding, and filming were, in our opinion, the most enjoyable aspects of the project. It gave us a lot of creative liberties and allowed for fun. Here, everyone was free to express their ideas, and we all knew what to do. The editing, on the other hand, was not as straightforward. Unfortunately, the video could only fully be edited and assembled by one of our team members. The rest of us couldn't help as much but observe and tried our best with what our groupmate was doing. A re-evaluation of the writing and storyboard will be needed but will come another time. Thi
