Plans got canceled today.

 

So today I made plans to go film at a local park, but unfortunately it didn't work out. I got home, grabbed my gear and was ready to head out. I grabbed all of our props, which included costumes, a fake knife and etc.
But as soon as i went to head out, it started pouring!! I waited about fifteen minuets but the rain just didn't stop, so me and my group made a compromise. I decided to head over to nicks house where we would be able to work there inside. I started there by planning some final touches about our script and outline. I also saw examples movies that are in the same genre of ours. We noted some important thins, like low angles that were used throughout the film. I also realized that in these professional films, low angles are used to show the power of the subject. I planned to implement this is our film to show the kidnapper having power. I also researched some new editing software to use after filming our opening sequence. But, most of them came with a charge so I decided to stick with IMovie. Occasionally, I would check outside of my group mates house to see if it was still raining, because he lives near the park. By the time it stopped, it was getting dark. So, we finished up on our research about our genre. I almost left my camera and props. I headed home an reflected on our progress and what we will need to do for the future. I also re-arranged our schedule so that we can fit in a new filming date and hopefully it won't be raining that day. This is what we did for our production today!

Genre research : (comedy)

Image
       The first genre that our group chose is comedy. Here are the common camera angles, mis-en-scene, sounds, editing. As well as some example films. Common Angles: There are many different angles that are widely used in the comedy genre. To start, commonly extreme close ups as well as close up shots are used. These shots are usually shown to help the audience understand or grasp on the humor portrayed by facial expressions, and reactions from the subjects on the film. Furthermore, other angles are widely seen in comedy, like wide shots. Wide shots are used mainly to fit a large gathering into one shot, and by doing this it opens the door to group comedy, and other characters to fit into the scene or story play. Finally, the last common camera angle that we see a lot in this genre is eyeline shots. An eyeline shot in comedy is the subjects way to often tell the audience directly, the joke or line being said. These are some common angles that are used in comedy!! Co...
