Creating our Storyboard

 

  • Scene 1: Our music video starts out with all the characters walking up to a ticket booth. The ticket booth of an ice skating rink. The characters hand the ticket booth worker money and buy their tickets. This will be a medium-long shot.

  • Scene 2: There is a wipe transition to characters walking to the rink. They head over to the ice skates place. This will be an over the shoulder shot.

  • Scene 3: There is a jump cut. They then purchase their ice skates. Everyone now grabs their ice skates in a medium-long shot.

  • Scene 4: This scene starts out with a split screen of character putting on their ice skates. Tying their laces. It beings with a fade-in.

  • Scene 5: Our characters walk onto the ice. We are using a tracking shot to follow them around the ice skating rink. 

  • Scene 6: One of our characters is focused on. They are ice skating as well. This character slips and falls on the ice. We then use a quick zoom into our characters head for a transition into our next scene.

  • Scene 7: Starting out with a high angle, we zoom out from the transition to see our characters sitting on the ground writing letters to Santa. 

  • Scene 8: The camera cuts to an extreme close-up of all of the characters putting their letters into the mailbox. We will do this by using a jump cut.

  • Scene 9: Using a point of view shot we follow our characters to walk up and meet Santa.

  • Scene 10: The camera then cuts to one our the characters sitting on santa's lap. This will be achieved using a jump cut. The character then whispers a secret into Santa’s ear. This will all be a medium-long shot

  • Scene 11: The camera slowly zooms out to see all of the characters plus Santa waving goodbye to the camera. The video slowly fades out into the next scene.

  • Scene 12: “The End” fades into a black screen while the music continues to play over the shot.

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...
