WEEK 3 Post 2

                                                                    Week 3 Post 2

    Now, as we are moving into the middle of week 3 we have created a script of what the voice overs are going to be, and organize all the sound add ins. We knew how we wanted the voice overs to be, but needed to put it on paper, and communicate our ideas. Again this might tweak as we actually create and film the voice overs but this is what we are basing off from. 

(Setting in school hallway) 

Blaire: Hey Riley. 

Riley: Hey Blaire! 

Riley: What do you want to do this weekend? 

Blaire: I was thinking about the beach, what about you? 

Riley: Yes, that sounds fun let's do that! 

(Voiceover starts) 

This is Blaire. Blaire has been my best friend since birth, our moms were friends even before we were born, planning our whole lives together. Of course, we have other friends, but I've never met anyone that can compare to her, no one else I would rather spend all my time with. Our moms are always joking about how similar we are. We do everything together, and everyone knows that when you see one of us, you'll see the other. Shes always been there when I want my stomach to hurt after laughing and when I need a shoulder to cry on. Shes always been here. Everything I have done has been with Blair, and I never had to imagine anything without her.  

(Happy music)

Accident Occurs  

 

Second Voiceover starts:  

Riley: Until I had to... 

(Sad music) 

BUSSY 

(Call from Blaire's Mom) 

(sad tone) Hey Riley...it's me Heather, um I really don’t know how to say this, I don’t think I have even said it out loud since it happened, but we lost Blaire this past morning. I'm so sorry honey, let me know if you need anything. 

(Hang up noise. Riley cries) 

(Black screen that says 30 days later) 

Riley: My first thought when I got that call on September 5th was that this isn’t real... and now it's been 30 days without Riley. 30 days of confusion, and anger. 30 days I never thought I would have to live. 30 long days of my mind echoing your name every time I do anything that reminds me of you. Me and Blair learned every life lesson together and I never thought I would have to learn the biggest one, about losing someone without her and even worse about her. After the first week I decided that it was to hard to process everything and I began to shut myself off to everyone. I know I shouldn’t but who's to say what I can and can’t do when I have just lost the one person in my life worth living for. I wish I told her one more time how much she meant to me before the only time I can see her is when I close my eyes. Not only is the sadness hard but the uncertainty of if I caused the car crash is something I might always blame myself for.

WEEK 5 Post 1

                                                                        Week 5 Post 1      Welcome back to my blog, this first post going into week 5 is about the roles that each person in our 3 person group has. The group includes me and my two friends Hallie, and Kate. We have to take on all the roles needed to create a short film. The first roles mentioned are the two main characters Blair and Riley. Kate will be playing Blair, the friends that dies in the car accident. And Riley will be played by me, Ella. So we will be the ones in videos acting. And as Riley I will be doing the voice overs as well. There is also a voiceover for blairs mom in the phone call, for that voice we will do Hallie, because her voice hasn't really been heard or recognized yet. Those are the only in-film roles that t...

WEEK 2 - Film Opening Portfolio Project

Week 2 Blog post 3   Technology:   The technology that we will be using for our project is simple . First, we will be filming on our own apple phones for our camera , which is an iPhone 13 camera. Besides the camera, our teacher does have additional equipment to better the quality of our filming . He has some mics to record voices clearly, if you have an intro that has dialogue . Although our video will have a voice over so we will record a voice memo and edit it to play over our video. Since we are going to be filming on ou r phones , we need tools that will improve the quality of our filming technique. So, we are offered to borrow a  tripod this will help tremendously with making shots steadier and more professional looking. I think that sense these videos are very homemade what makes an intro stand out is the quality. I n class we watched several example intros from previous proj...

CCR Post 2

 Critical Reflection Project #2           For the second CCR Post My group and I did a podcast. I also will be posting my answer typed out to get  a better idea of my interpretation and answer of the question across better. The question I answered was " How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?" My answer: I feel typical coming of age movies can vary in plot and maturity offering ways to entertain lots of different audiences . Although considering our film I feel that it gravitates towards a more spec i fic group with our characters and plot. I would say that it most closely targets young people, teenage age and thinking more specifically I would think that it target girls mor e than boys. Regarding to the two girl main characters, and girly feel to the film it may not peek boys' interest as much. This film also portrays a very specific lifestyle that may attract an audience becau...
