Hey guys! It's finally here! The final opening sequence is completed! I'm so excited for you all to see the product of all my hard work. I'm so happy with how it came out and I hope you all enjoy!
Hi everyone! The film has gone through its last few edits and I’m here to tell you all about it. The first thing I did was add some edits to the intro. At first it was too long because the group had filmed some extra shots on another day and added it into the film. I liked the new scenes, but some establishing shots were too long. So, I played those parts through, and when I wanted to cut the clip short, I would split the footage at that point. This allowed me to delete the extra footage that I didn’t want to include. With that fixed, I moved on to finding a filter that would match the intro. For the film, we have high intensity, gloomy music playing in the intro to create a humerus contrast with the happiness of the radio playing and actor dancing that comes later. It creates this shock for the audience because from the intro you would think something sinister is going to happen, but then you see this happy setting of a man cooking dinner for his...
Hey guys! So, I want to tell you about the rest of the props I bought for my opening sequence. After the cutting board, the next prop I had to buy was a "scary mask" for the killer to wear. To avoid spending more money, I first tried to ask some friends and family if they had a similar mask lying around. I assumed that someone would have to have one as a part of a past Halloween costume, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. The next step I could think to do was head back to Amazon, as I've learned based on my last experience that it's the cheapest and most convenient way to buy my props. I started online shopping, and within a few minutes I found the perfect mask. It said that the mask would arrive in three days, which is perfect, as I won't need it for filming for another week. After the mask, the next thing I had to obtain was a large knife to use as the murder weapon. I...
Hey everyone! It's the moment we've all been waiting for, the filming finale! In this blog I'm going to tell you everything I did to film the final car scene. The first thing I had to do was research! My vision for this scene was to film a car crash that shows why the character was in a coma in the first place. However, there were some obvious limitations to this plan. This included the fact that I didn't exactly have the money, equipment, or knowledge to safely execute a real car scene. Since this scene is so vital for the plot of the film, I knew I needed a way to overcome these obstacles. I started with some basic research on google. I was able to find YouTube videos showing how to create a car crash scene with no damage! I learned that I can actually create a car crash scene with some simple editing techniques. All I had to do was experiment with some craft angles! So, when my group met next, I knew what I needed to do. I planned...
