Storyboard Time

Hey guys! I said that I would have a Storyboard ready for you guys, and Im finally done with it. So, here it is:




     In the storyboard, you can see the main shots that I plan on taking along with the camera angle of those shots. I think that there are a lot of scenes for a 2 minute film, but if it passes over the 2 minute limit, I can cut some of the home scenes or the scene of the characters getting into the car. It's better to have more possible shots than running short last minute. I will be introducing my choice of actors and characters later along with a script.
Until then, Mafe.

Filming At My House

Image
     Hey guys! As you may have noticed from the title of the post, I finally managed to film the shots that I needed inside of my house. In here, the first shot that we started to film was the one were Lucia, playing Jackie, was marking up the calendar to show that they were going on a camping trip. For this shot, we had to film it around 15 times before we actually captured the perfect one. Since she was marking the calendar with a sharpie, we had to get that one shot right in one go, which is why we had practiced so much to make no mistakes. Here is a clip:      In this shoot, we had a little trouble with time. Because we started filming after we ate dinner and we had ran so many practice shots along with placing the props, when we captured the actual shot, it was already dark outside; I wanted it there to be daylight to show that they had woken up to go for the camping trip in the morning. Nevertheless, that wasn't possible anymore, but this cou...

Editing

     Hey guys! After choosing the shots that I was going to use, I started to place them in the order that I was thinking of (you can see that order in my previous post displaying my Storyboard). Now, all I had to do was edit them so that they can flow together smoothly.      For the editing, I used an app called imovie on a friends apple computer, since my computer had recently broke. In here I was having trouble with the audio and quality of the resolution of the shots taken with the drone. I didn't realize before that all the shots taken with the drone were extremely blurry and had no audio, if I had known before, I wouldn't of had used that drone specifically and if anything, a drone at all! What's the point of capturing a great shot, if it is blurry? Unfortunately for me, it is too late to redo those shots because of timing and because my actors are not available anymore. Thus, I tried my best to try to give it a higher resolution by asking google, ye...

American Sign Language

     Hey guys! As you may know, the main character of my film will be deaf. For that reason, I will have to add subtitles on the parts of my film where the characters sign to each other, that way the viewer may be able to understand what the characters are saying. There is not one type of sign language understood worldwide, for that reason, I will be using American Sign Language (ASL). This is a complete language that employs signs made by moving the hands combined with facial expressions and postures of the body. American Sign Language however, is the primary language of many North Americans who are deaf or hard-of-hearing. Because I do not know ASL, I have asked one of my friends Irene Mejia, who has been learning ASL for over three years now, to help me learn how to do the signs necessary that I will use in the film. She sent me this video of her doing it:       With this video, my actors will know how to properly sign when the time ...
