Production Blog - Hard Working

 Hi y'all! It's Rowyn again. Today is just more planning and some changes! I am super excited about filming our music video! Not only because I love the idea but because it fits perfectly in time for Halloween! I love Halloween because something about dressing up and being with your friends makes me happy. Because we have a lot of other work for classes and practice. We decided that we are going to start filming on Monday (October 23). This is because at school it is an early release day and we will all be available to film. We are going to film at the Galleria, the park, and Kylie's house. This plan hasn't changed because these locations are perfect for the video. But we also haven't had any problems with the locations so we are good to go. But I did overhear someone saying that we had to get permission to film at the Galleria but I'm not going to worry about that now. For playing a character, to play the role, you have to dress like the role. Because I don't really have a "role" I don't have to wear anything super specific. But I do like the feeling of being involved so I definitely will contribute to having a costume. As an editor and filmmaker, I will do my best at everything to ensure this video is perfect. But yeah that's pretty much it for today! Most importantly, I'm stoked about sharing this experience with my incredible group and I know we are going to make this music video the best one yet! Bye y'all!

Creative Critical Reflection - Final Task

 1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?  Answer:       This product utilizes conventions in horror and thriller movies. We used camera angles, music, editing, and dialogue that are commonly used in movies like this. For example, this product has scenes that are close-ups which are used in horror films to show fear in characters or to show what may be happening to change the viewer's focus while watching. In this scene right here we used a close-up to show the killer show that the audience can feel how close the killer was to the main character without her knowing. Almost as a dramatic irony. When the characters don't know what may be going on but the audience does. Overall, the product was truly a thriller because of the amount of suspense it had. Each scene kept building up which is usually what horror/thriller films use. But it does challenge conventions because of costumes. In this scene h...

Music: Choosing Audios

 Hey y'all! Last addition to the editing portion of the final task! I was doing research on the music that was going to apply to the Final Task. I used many websites, but deciding to stick with what I knew would be the best, it needed to be found on YouTube. I searched for royalty free music and boy oh boy there were MANY to choose from. However, I was stuck between two sounds. One being a constant beat like a timer and the other having suspense in the sound as time went on. Although it was a tough decision to make between me and my group, my group members and I came agreed to choose the second one. The reasoning behind this choice, was simple. It fit the plot of our film and plot better. The first choice was a little to fast paced, meaning that it wouldn't have fit the video. It was also very loud, so it would be hard to both insert and hear non-diegetic sounds. On the other hand, the second one was quiet, but added that suspenseful aspect that I was looking for in the film. ...
