Our Pitch

Pitch one: Three people find an object each with their names on it, guiding them to their fate and newfound powers. 

Pitch two: A worker opens an email ruining their day and potentially their life. 


Pitch one reason: This idea interests us because the concept would be detailed and enjoyable to do. Fantasy is a genre that excites all of us and being incorporated into a story of our own would be interesting. It's also an interesting film because Tasmia wrote a short story about it. We would just have to change some of the powers for editing purposes. However, it would be timely, and editing the powers to look realistic may be difficult for us.


Pitch two reason: This idea interests us, because of the open possibilities. Mystery, Suspense, and origin stories are some of our favorite topics to discuss. It would also be interesting to film because we came up with this idea by joking that Madelyn looked like a villain. So, if we were to actually make this it would be hilarious. However this would be a little bit of a boring concept, but it's more durable. 


Restate the pitch chosen for the final task:


Three people find an object each with their names on it, guiding them to their fate and newfound powers.


The reason we picked this topic: We picked this one over the other one because it was more detailed, and we had more to go off. I mean who doesn't like a new superhero movie. This pitch was also more interesting to us than the other one. My group and I also talked about what we could do more with this pitch than the other one. Ultimately my group and I decided we would have more creative freedom.

Production Blog; further editing

Image
Today, my group and I got together to do some further editing. At home, I was able to open up the project but it would not let me properly edit. So, my members and I decided to group together to work on it on a single computer. The audio being used had to be temporarily taken out because it couldn't be heard. After taking the audio out, the unfinished video could be seen for us to properly edit.  When my group and I were able to start, we decided to go over the video to refresh our memory on what work needed to be done. The music video so far was only one minute and twenty-eight seconds but it had to be one minute and fifteen seconds. One of the scenes had to be cut out completely which shortened the video by four seconds. We had to cut out another scene as well because it felt as if it was redundant. With the scene cut out, it helped the video flow more smoothly because it fit like a transition.  One of the scenes that had to be cut was one that had Madelyn sitting alone near...

Filming at the Park

Image
 After so many trials of rescheduling dates to film, I was able to film with Madelyn. Since most of her scenes were better suited outside, I suggested that we went to the park. I filmed her parts first and it took a lot of trial and error. Since the storyboard, my group and I made had a lot of running scenes, it was difficult to get a good shot. It was very sunny as well, so I had a hard time seeing the screen of my phone when recording so I wasn't able to clearly tell if my phone was positioned correctly.  There was supposed to be dialogue in this film but due to other the sound of other children at the park, it couldn't be done. To compromise, I suggested that we do voiceovers instead so it can be heard better. Since the grassy area that we chose to film other scenes in was next to the park, I had to angle my phone a specific way in order for the park to not show. This was because they were meant to represent two different places in the actual opening sequence so the audienc...

Production Blog; putting the scenes together

Image
 My group and I decided to get together to begin the editing process. Kennedy had brought her personal computer and opened up editing software and began putting the scenes together. Since all the recordings were on my phone, I had to select all the scenes that were going to be used and send them to both Kennedy and Madelyn to look over. Once the website was open, Madelyn and I made an account on Clip Champ. Then Kennedy tried sending the project to our respective emails but there was a connection issue.  After several minutes, I was able to receive the video. However, the computer I was using wasn't working properly (it wasn't my personal one), so the software wasn't loading. After a few minutes, I decided to edit using Kennedy's laptop where we both went through the music video scenes. Initially, the length for the video exceeded one minute and fifteen seconds and was one minute and forty seconds. The majority of the scenes had to be edited to be shorter or sped up.  F...
