Extra! Extra! Film All About It

Welcome back guys, last time I made some changes to my script. And I plan out the other parts. I talked to my friend, and we plan to meet up, sometime next week during the weekend. There might be some changes and I have some things to figure out both for the most part everything is planned out. Today, I was able to film a part of my project. I filmed scenes 19, 20, and 21, where the Detective is reading a newspaper, and gets a phone call. So, I had to set up the room to that it looked mysterious and added to extra props. I got my hat, suit, and newspaper. Set up the camera and started to film. Also, I had natural light coming in, for a lighter space. For scene 19, I filmed it in two parts. First, I had the camera to the side of me, filming as I was pretending to read newspaper. Then, I zoomed into the newspaper. Also, I filmed a separate piece of just the newspaper paper. This is where one of the titles will go. For scene 20, the camera is in the same place, I looked over to the phone, walked to it, and picked it up. For scene 21, first I put the camera behind as I was walking out the door. Then I put the camera in front of me, as I walked closer to it. I took multiple takes of the scenes, so I have to go through it and find the best ones. Stay tuned for my next blog where I’ll unravel even more mysteries about making an opening scenes video. Trust me; you won't want to miss it.

Thinking of What Should of Been Thought

Welcome back guys, I am still panicking, after yesterday I was so tired to think of anything. So, I still don't have a plan and I still don't know what exactly to do. Instead, I’m going to list everything I have and all of the components of project and come up with some ideas with that. Later chose the best ideas and fix it so that it’s better. First the project is about a murder mystery with the twist. I have to film and edit 30 scenes in an appropriate time frame. For most of the project, I will basically be alone. So, I will have to do it all by myself, but I can ask some of my family members and friends for help. This is the part where I wished I worked in a group. But anyways I am going to be filming on my phone and use CapCut and some other sites to edit. I already have most of the props and costumes. In terms of props, I have newspapers, a fake gun, a magnifying glass, a notebook, a pen, and etc. And in terms of costumes, I have a cloak, mask, gloves, and a suit. I also ...

Ad Anarchy and Control

Welcome back guys, it's time to complete some of the last steps in creating this ad. The pictures, the music, the videos, and the credits were all completed when we last left off. All that remains is for me to edit the recently shot video and piece together the whole thing. For the video, again, as always, I'm playing about with the saturation, highlights, exposure, contrast, and other settings. During the editing, sometimes it was either way too light or way too dark, I’m hoping it gives off a deep theme. Now, it's actually time to build the commercial, by using CapCut. I put all of my previously edited pictures, videos, and music into a folder when I was done with them to make it easier to collect. I collected all of the audio, video, and photos. I opened CapCut and began editing. I had to pair the footage with my idea, so it took a while. Some clips were edited, while others were trimmed. I removed the bad parts of the clip. I also added transitions, lik...
