Finally able to begin

 Hello and welcome back! I hope everyone's been well as i've been away. So the production has finally started, but definitely not without some mishaps. Filming had been pushed back again, because there was scheduling conflicts. The group knew that this was likely going to be a problem as filming went on. The time between filming though will make the film turn out better though. There's days to decide what's the best and what deserves to be in the film. The first part of filming was at my house. Only around 2 minutes were able to be filmed. Not all the scenes that are supposed to be filmed at my house were done. The scenes that are filmed are just the beginning sequence. There's one scene that was filmed that's the longest amount of uncut filming i've ever done. It's about a 45 second scene, which includes a close up, an over-the-shoulder shot and a tracking shot. Its a lot of different types of shots within one. It surprising only took three tries to do. I think the shot turned out very well and i'm very proud of my camera work within it. It was a lot of just following a group member and getting the pacing right. It came pretty naturally. I hope the rest of the filming goes the same way. I promise to keep you all updated as it goes along. But for now, goodbye everyone. See you next time!

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...
