Editing and viewing

 The filming for our commercial went well. We encountered some minor problems like timing issues, weather, and curfews but all in all it went well. The issues we saw could have been avoided so next time well think more ahead to keep these from happening. After our filming done by our member Sean he sent the raw filming to our other member Brianna who was to be our editor. The acting was done by our members randy and I. Once sent to Brianna she was to condense the raw material into the final product. She also added background music as the wind that day was loud and could be heard in the background. Next she made sure that the sound of the coke opening was crisp. This was done because in our research we found that many coke commercials and soda commercials in general have the crisp sound of the can opening added. This makes the drink seem refreshing and is a staple. last she added a fade-in to the coke logo as it was being drank. This finished off the last part of our commercial and made it more seeming of an actual promotional commercial. Brianna executed on all of these points and made sure that it looked good. After the commercial was done we all viewed it and gave our thoughts. There were some things to be improved for every part of it. The filming went well but sort of lacked context. The lighting was bad as the weather made it dark and gloomy and the editing could have been cut together more precisely. This just showed us that we had room to grow. This commercial is the first of many projects. We look forward to making new filming products and improving on each one.

How to make a short film

 The video "How to make a short film" by film riot will act as a helpful tool. This video gives our group a good sense of what well need to do in creating our short film. Most of this is in the preparation and setup that allows the story to come through within the short amount of time. It says not to write something that wont fit the resources that are available to us. Our short film should be written having in mind the actors as well as the access to equipment we have. We would not be able to perform huge cgi shots or anything from the sky as we don't have the equipment for it and we should plan accordingly. Another important aspect of the film that we should focus on is tone. The video goes over tone as it relates to camera positioning as well as lighting and setting. The tone should be appropriate throughout or else it will lose legitimacy. as for the casting when it comes to this video it says to make sure to get out of them what is needed and we will have to take thi...

Production delay

 Our group has made plans to film in the future as we experienced some scheduling setbacks. The last few weeks have been difficult as we have had less face to face time to make plans for our production. There has been religious holidays as well as unexpected early release days. The main scheduling conflicts lies in the hurricane that hit Florida last week. The hurricanes impact on Florida left us without school and personally left me without access to power during parts of those days. The hurricane made my parents more vigilant over my movement outside of the home which made it nearly impossible to meet up. We had no choice but to wait for another opportunity. The weekend came and went and we had yet to communicate on a day to meet. We met during our class this week and decided to meet in the near future. The timing didn't align for us with our afterschool activities so we could not meet up during the week. While talking over the plan to meetup one of our members said they wor...
