Production blog

 So.... I have not filmed a single shot in over 4 days.I have had to work everyday, and my assignments are running behind. I have had disastrous panic attacks, and they’re becoming more frequent. I have approximately 1/4 of the whole clip done. I gave myself the 10th as my deadline for filming and use the rest days to edit before sending it in. I am panicking, my grades are falling, I have F’s. My parents are yelling at me and I am behind in my Broward College class to the point where I’ve received a letter of withdrawal. I think about this project every day but it still ends up being last. 


So what will I do about it? I am going to do as much work as I can and call tomorrow off. I will dedicate all day tomorrow as my filming and editing day. I will risk losing my jobs because Cambridge is more important. 


While I’ve been thinking of this class I realized that I need a camera man, which I have asked my sister to do.

 As I begin to advance in my filming processes, I discovered that filming is actually fun. I took two days off to film and to edit. so now I am basically done with the film I am relieved. Although my boss was mad, and I risk getting fired but my Cambridge diploma is worth more to me. What I have filmed... I have filmed primarily based on the storyboard. I am extremely proud that I have started filming and I am ready to wrap up the final project. I have faced many many challenges, from getting the proper props, to the financial aspect to my new job and no time. In my class, Media Studies, I have a very bad grade because I have not been blogging on time because I genuinely do not have any time anymore. I wake up at 5 in the morning, go to school until 3, then go to work right after school until 11. So I have 1 hour to film and I am not only exhausted but it's usually too late to be filming.  On my day off, I decided to start filming the first 2 scenes, but it was only seconds l...

The Thanksgiving Break Filming Blog Part II

Image
 This is the second part to the first blog 'The Thanksgiving Break Filming Blog' , where I introduced the first half of the filming process. All the filming that was described on that day was done on the 25th of November. Only a fraction of that work has been edited however, I have managed to do a lot more for the final product of my project. I have gathered more props and equipment's to get better results. Those will be put on the editing blog that is getting posted sometime tomorrow evening.  The last blog left off on the 4th scene, which was the only scenes that I got to film. I did not film on Thursday the 26th, Thanksgiving Day *American calendar*. Friday after noon, I set out to get as much possible. Anyways, between blogs 4-6, the character begins to walk towards a deadlift bar on the ground. The bar is obviously heavy, however  the main character goes for it and the 6th scene ends when the main character blanks as a transition. Scenes 7-9, the character goes for a...

Believers Music Video Editing Blog

Image
I began editing my music video on December the 1st. This date was anticipated a lot earlier, however I have procrastinated and left time to catch me. Although I had procrastinated at the end of the day I know I would get the project done on time. I am anticipating to have my project finalized by the end of the week of the 7th. Now what have I discovered, learned, and done differently during this project? During the editing process I came a long way to where I am. I faced lots of issues and I knew I could get them fixed by trouble shooting them. During my editing process A lot of scenes were cut out and/or redone and did not make my final product. I did learn that, that’s ok to make mistakes and get them fixed. I had not yet filmed my flashback scene so I just got that done while I was editing.  Equipment  I used a 2018 IPhone XR for all the filming. ClipChamp was the main software that I used because it was free. IMovie however later I did not transport those cuts to my final ...
