Drawing the Storyboard

Storyboarding was a difficult process for us. I did the storyboard but we all helped to come up with the idea. We all had an idea but ended up combining them. Ben's idea was to have us walk around school and came up with the final slogan. My idea was to have a bad backpack at the beginning and that it breaks. Jade's idea was to have students be nice to the character with the bad backpack. Siena's idea was to have all three walk away together. Our final idea was to have a girl with a bad backpack that breaks. Two helpful girls walk by and show her their backpacks. The girl gets a Jansport backpack and shows it to the girls the next day. At the end of the commercial, the three girls walk away showing their backpacks. The slogan "Jansport is with you for life" appears and the commercial ends. We are all very excited to film. We decided to film at two different locations, the first half of the commercial will happen at the first location. The second half of the commercial will happen at the second location. The first location is an outside hallway on the second story of a building. The second location will be an outside hallway with beautiful scenery surrounding it. We decided to film over multiple days, doing one location per day. The only thing left to decide is camera angles and movements. That is something we will do when filming.

Choosing our Pitch

Image
Pitch 1: A little girl's imagination gets out of hand one afternoon. Pitch 2: A girl is doing homework when suddenly she finds a mysterious note left in her book for her. Pitch 3: A young mom is driving to pick up her son from school, when out of the blue and friend from her past comes her way. Pitch one is an ideal one for our group, as it can involve girl characters, and our group has four girls. This leaves us options for us to have someone to film, which is good so we don't have to go out of our way to find another cameraman. This, along with the fact that the wording allows for wiggle room, is a pro to pitch 1. However, we would have to take extra steps to find a little girl to play one of the parts, which adds a bit of a challenge, but I think our group is up for that. Pitch 2 is also a reasonable pitch for our group, because we can have one of us acting and the rest of us tackling other responsibilities. However, we are not sure how much we can do with the concept, so...

Movie Conventions Research: Bird Box

Image
  Various camera angles, sounds, editing forms, and mis-en-scene were used in this film. For starters, numerous scenes were shot at a medium close-up viewpoint with dark lighting as the mis-en-scene. Dim lighting in the forest setting and  Ambient lighting are two examples of different types of illumination. To achieve a chilling effect, many props were added, including a blindfold and a rowboat down a strong river. The majority of the film was shot with diegetic sound, however there were several instances where there was no sound to create an eerie and mysterious atmosphere within the movie.  Different types of lighting, such as under lighting, were heavily used to generate an ominous impact on viewers. The actors in this film are dressed in costumes that are meant to look worn out and dirty to the audience. The majority of the aspects stated had a positive impact on the movie since they added tension and suspense, which is what this genre is all about. Low angle and eye...

More Filming!

Image
 When Connor arrived, we were ecstatic. This meant we could finish filming all of the scenes now. After me and Katie filmed the scenes in her house, we needed to film the rest of them. We began filming the next scene, which was me riding a bike through a neighborhood. I hopped on the bike and rode it, while Katie and Connor followed me filming as a tracking shot. Thankfully I knew how to ride a bike, so it was fairly easy to film. There was two other locations we needed to film at. One at a playground, and another in the forest at Hugh Taylor Birch State park. The three of us walked to a local playground and started filming the scene with Katie and I. We sat on the swings, rehearsing our lines quickly so we could film with ease. I took multiple shots, so we could pick the best one out of the couple. The props we used in that scene was our phones. Next, we had to film in the forest. Katie's neighbors gave us a key to enter the park. That was very convenient for us. We needed to film...
