Editing Day Two!

 Hi y'all! It's Rowyn with the FINAL production blog for the music video. And I believe we should take a moment to applause for this. Yes, guys you heard me correctly, the last production blog until the next project! I can't believe we made it this far. But it is not over yet we still have to edit the second part of the music video! Today we are editing the scenes from the park. We have a total of 13 scenes from there. For the two opening scenes of Kylie walking, I didn't use transitions but I did edit a lot of Kylie accidentally looking at the camera haha. Then I used a dissolve transition for her on the phone, which led to the screen recording scene which I connected with the fade transition. The screen insert scene took MANY tries and editing to get it perfect. I am very happy with the way it turned out! I used the dissolve transition for when Kylie runs. This scene is when she notices the stalker. After many dissolve and fade transitions of her running we get to the part where she gets in the car. The car scenes were the longest to film. This is because we only have our permits and can't drive haha but I feel like we did a pretty good job managing this. When Mia gets hit I used the fade transition to contrast from her getting hit to then on the floor lying dead. Then I used a black image to separate the whole filming to a cliffhanger of Mia staring into the car mirror. The car mirror scene was actually filmed by Kylie as a point-of-view shot and a Dutch! With many cuts later and spiltting, WE ARE FINALLY DONE WITH THE MUSIC VIDEO!!! I'm so glad y'all stuck around with me throughout this process! Thank you guys!

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. ...
