Hey, It’s nice to see you again! The filming is finished, there’s certain conventions in the music video that were followed and certain conventions that weren’t. A lot of stereotypes were purposely followed within the music video. There was the popular mean girl who was the bad best friend. There was the geek who was the good best friend. There was also the friend that’s trying to fit in with the mean girl, who was the neutral best friend. The mean girl wore very preppy outfits, and wore pink. The geeky best friend wore glasses and baggy clothing. The neutral best friend wore basic clothing. There was also other conventions that were used for the music video. There was other pop culture references within the music video. When the evil best friend was caught texting another person, the name of the contact was regina. This is an allusion to the commonly referenced movie Mean Girls. Regina is the stereotypical mean girl, antagonist in the movie. Regina is one of the most iconic mean girls in media history. At on part of the music video one of the actors did lip sync one of the song. There was only that one part though, so this doesn’t fit many conventions of music videos. Most music videos have the singer or actors lip syncing the lyrics throughout. It was almost an equal amount of conventions that were followed and ignored. That’s all for now! Till i see you again.

Done with filming

 Hello everyone welcome back! I'm very glad to say the filming has been finished for Bedlam. More filming was done throughout the week for last scenes we needed. Now i don't know for sure if the filming is officially finished, because editing hasn't started so i have no idea how everything will look when it's all done. If more filming has to be done then so be it. The last filming that was done was at Fransheca's house. The group wanted a scene at a psych ward and obviously weren't able to go to one and film. So some improvising was done. I had to be very careful when filming in the room because the room had to be bare. A lot of stuff had to be moved around. It worked a lot better than expected and was definitely the best choice out of all our bedrooms. Mine was already used in the production, and i have way too many posters and random things on my wall. Omnia's room is also pretty lively too. Fransheca's room has white and grey walls. Which worked very ...

Research: How to make a short film

Image
  Writing to what you have resources to is a strong saying that we’ll have to live by when developing our plot and script. We can only write with what we have.  There’s only so much we can do with the came ra that we’re filming with and the lack of mics. Knowing that we’ll need time to edit and fix the pacing of the film. There’s only 5 minutes we have, so we need to be careful on how much we film and the amount we’ll cut. Over filming is the best option, but we need to make sure the plot isn't one that doesn't have to be fully fleshed out to be able to understand. There does need to be payoffs of some sort and every scene has to count, there’s not room for filler. There also can’t be a lot of predictability within the film, which will be hard because of the groundhog type day plot we plan on using. T here has to be types of scenes that the audience won’t see coming , while also f ollowing the theme of the story . The theme will drive our plot, and it needs to be unders...
