POSTPRODUCTION #2

  What kind of transitions, effects, and titles are you using? Why? very basic effects and transitions top make it look very raw and give the viewer a better sense of what's happening in the movie What kind of sounds do you need to add? How so? we add the sound effects for the suspenseful moments along with the audio track that shows thrill. Difficulties the lighting and angles were kind of a problem for me. Changes and revisions I re-shot all the shots again due to the lighting that the film was displaying was too dark for the final shot.

POSTPRODUCTION

  How are you using the editing process to create a coherent meaning from your collection of shots? We are putting the clips together in chronological order showing continuity from clip to clip and putting the music overlay to draw suspense towards the film. What kind of technology did you use during the process? computers for credits, cellular device for vide editing and also introduction for the company "elixir studio films" What did you learn about using postproduction technologies? it can be very beneficial to there final post and will reveal whether some things look logical What are the conventions of titling in your genre, and how did you follow them? What are the conventions of titling in your genre, and how did you follow them? The title should always be something that will make the viewer nervous or looks scary.

PRODUCTION WEEK

PRODUCTION WEEK What kind of technology did you use during the process? I Used my iPhone 8, a flashlight and a cool led mask along with tv static What did you learn about using production technologies (cameras, lights, etc.) ? usually the lighting looks very much different in the recording then what u think when your setting it up. Did you consult any sources to learn how to use your equipment (YouTube tutorials, etc.)? YouTube,  and online videos to hep me set up everything Did you work from any influences when recording certain shots? no not really Difficulties the lighting was very difficult for me to perform and required re recording

OPENING SEQUENCES IN HORROR MOVIES

 The opening sequence of a horror film usually draws suspense with the scenes and in the first two minutes with the shots and angles that are shown to the viewer.

LOGO DESIGN & ANIMATION

     So i was the one who created this entire logo and provided logos for my teammates submissions, I then created the actual logo animation and everything through an editing app in less then an hour how ever making it one of the best ones in the class in my opinion. I created it based on the popular mobile game "Clash Royale" and made the animation a suspense or terror type of vibe. 

PREPRODUCTION

 We are going to record this in my house, we already have the actors ready and we know what the film is going to be about along with the script and story board to guide us towards completing it. I will mainly be doing all the recording as the cameraman and director however Shamar and Alex helped with the other stuff. it is going to be during nighttime due to the essence and tone of the movie that way no sunlight escapes into the film since this is going to be a dark lighting theme mainly.

HOW WOULD A FILMMAKER GET HIS IDEA OUT?

 The first step of the process, and most likely sharing the information and providing the proof slash evidence that in reality their idea isn't copied or based off something but truly their own idea and creativity. Afterwards they would most likely tell them how they would do such projects the funding part the recording and the acting who they plan on hiring for this and how they would get it done not to mention they would provide a professional rating by individuals who professionally rate scripts to show them that this script has the potential to be successful.

HOW DOES PRODUCTION QUALITY AFFECT VIEWERS OPINION.

 Well from a production and crew standpoint the acting is one of the most effective ways to help or ruin a film, the better the acting the better the viewer feels connected to the movie or film however if the acting is poor the viewer will not feel and attachment or understanding for the characters. now the lighting is just as important if not more. Due to the fact that lighting can affect the visual state in which the viewers are and mental, if the lighting is dark the viewer will most likely be quiet and very attention pudding slash dedicated to the film which could lead to A suspenseful feeling or scary.

Production Distribution

                                    Me and my group were assigned to investigate and do some research on the                                      topic of movie production distribution and the funding along with HOW ITS spent and these are the                                                   steps I took to find all the information I needed out. First I began with some basic research like any normal person would do "Average movie cost Hollywood statistics" After that I went into the first website I saw which was "SCREENRANT" that's when i took mental & physical notes on the budget and how its spent i then decided to procras...

EDITING SOFTWARE

                                                                               EDITITNG SOFTWARE So first I began with filmora, moved on top video shop and then to iMovie. I realized that Filmora is actually a very incomplete and confusing editing software when it comes to beginners or new comers to the editing world, things due to the facts that the tutorial is very short and incomplete in the sense of the editing software assuming you know basic thing that most new editors have absolutely no idea even EXIST! SO i then decided making a pros and cons chart for each other was the best option to determine what the best editing software is. PROS & CONS OF FILMORA After a lot of Investigating and exploring I realized the pros are mainly when cramped into ...

MISE-EN-SCENE

Image
Movie directors have skills for setting up the scene using props, lighting and more in order to make the viewer feel some type of way about that specific scene or perhaps even maintaining the mood the whole film or feel a way about certain characters or place.   Mise-en-scene can be seen as a very important aspect of all movies that helps build suspense, nervousness, anxiety, thrill and/or shock. another consideration of mise-en-scene and cinematography is lighting. The intensity, depth, and angle of your lighting can all greatly affect the mood of a scene. The key thing to remember is that lighting is emotional.The creator of mise-en-scene or should I say creators are The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) The previous project/assignment required us to work with a partner on a photo of anything our creativity could think of using mise-en-scene and using lighting, angles, and shot types along with potentially props to demonstrate a theme/message or meaning i for example did a ninj...

CINEMATOGRAPHY

Image
 Cinematography is the art of making movies or films with quality ability by being able to use lots of shots, editing and more in order to communicate you message to the viewer depending on the genre of the movie and whether its a scary./funny/action or any genre through the screen. This topic intrigued me so i decided to research this topic further. Cinematography is very interesting It involves such techniques as the general composition of a scene; the lighting of the set or location; the choice of cameras, lenses, filters, and film stock; the camera angle and movements; and the integration of any special effects. generally used for any movie such as action films, horror, romantic and mystery. \ This particular assignment had us doing a very detailed set of activities. We had to take photos from different angles to show that we learned the different shot types of cinematography with our classmates in the hallways and classroom and then had to give an example of all types of video...

Approximately 500,00+ movies have been created at the time of writing this and each of them are part of a unique genre "what is a genre?" well a genre is basically the type of movie it is whether its supposed to cause laughter, thrill, or make someone nervous using specific shot types, editing, and mise-en-scene. Some of the most common movie genres you may run into at a movie theater are the following A genre (from Latin: genus) is a style or type of music, literature, movies, or other media. Some genres (styles) are used in more than one form of art or communication. For example, the genres fantasy and science fiction are used in literature, movies, and television. The earliest recorded systems of genre in Western history can be traced back to Plato and Aristotle. Gérard Genette, a French literary theorist and author of The Architext, describes Plato as creating three Imitational genres: dramatic dialogue, pure narrative, and epic (a mixture of dialogue and narrative).
