Filming Day One



I started filming today. I got some good clips. My actor was playing basketball in most of them and in other he was just working out. We got clips of him making shots and clips of him missing. I got a clip of him crossing his sister. I also got a flashback clip of him in his younger self. It was was getting dark outside so we did as much we could. I did about the first page of my storyboard in filming. It was getting cold so we called it a night. However i have much more to record and will be getting back at it as soon as possible.

Experiencing difficulties

During the break we were unable to record. That was our chance to get ahead of the game and return back to school with nothing to do. However, we didn't take that path and we wanted to just relax and sleep in. We wanted to rest well and leave all the stress of school behind, so that we could jump back into it with a clear mindset coming from the break. It took a while for us to get everything together, avoiding discomfort when we meet. It was hard in the beginning getting everything together, learning each other schedules and more. Getting the right actors and finding the right place to record. I'm more of a get it done and out the way person but the situation presented itself as "wait".

There is mutual respect and it's fun seeing all the different point of views and ideas that we have. We joke around from time to time but that made the whole proce...

Drawbacks

  Although it was enjoyable to work with my crew members, I will be working alone on the next project. I have nothing against my colleagues, however working with others requires me to adhere to everyone's work ethic. I prefer to do my tasks as quickly as possible. When I was working with others, it felt like a lot of tasks were pushed aside and left till the last minute. It was worrisome for me because I'm not a last-minute worker. I didn't want to bother the rest of my partners by bringing it up again. So, in order to escape all of that, I'll just work alone. There were benefits and drawbacks to working with others. Because not everyone was available at the same time, scheduling was a good illustration. Getting everything done efficiently and effectively. There was a small lack in communication when pertaining to the work. There was a lot of procrastination and it's hurting us, when doing the project. We need time to get the right film and edit and if we wait any l...

Editing Day One

  Today i begin editing the film i got on the 17th. I started if cutting clips down the were too long. Then i started to put them in the correct order. I’m grateful for the storyboard because i can just look back on it if i don’t remember the correct placements. I found areas where i need to re-film. I edited all the film i had using capcut and added the correct music over it. I'm not finished yet, but I'll get there. It's interesting to see what I was able to catch, and while I was reworking the video, I was able to capture some unnecessary moments, some unintentional moments, and some vital moments.
