The Filming Begins

-

 Hey Blog, its the Tuesday after President's Day and there's a lot to discuss. As I mention in a pervious blog, before we started filming we needed to get props, well my group and I completely forgot about the props and just started filming. Since it was a Monday and my group and I had school the next day everyone was in a funky mood. Everyone was so lazy and didn't want to drive all around town, so we just filmed the scenes that were in a close proximity close to us. A majority of the scenes were filmed at Jenna's house. There are more scenes to be filmed at Jenna's house, but those scenes take place during the night. We could have filmed those scenes on Monday, however Jenna had a dinner at 5:30. The scenes we completed were 7-12, 13-18, and 43-48. As you can see we got throughout the day, there was a decent amount of scenes completed.

BEGINNING OF FILMING

We started the day by meeting at Jenna's house. I was a little worried I wouldn't be able to make it because my car was getting washed and my parents had a meeting at the bank. Thankfully, Natalia kindly offered to pick me up. When we got there we began filming all the day scenes at Jenna's house. For example the phone call or Jenna and I baking. There were many dress changes since each scene was supposed to represent a different day. To make it easier I just borrowed Jenna's hoodies and I brought an extra of pants to wear. Once we completed those scenes we drove over to the mall. There weren't many scenes that needed to be filmed here. We filmed us shopping. While doing this we all went on a little shopping spree, I bought a pair of sweatpants. These scenes probably took us a 2 to 3 hours to film. Once the scenes were completed, we stopped for lunch at Zona Fresca. I would like to mention that Sofia was a great filmed, she hasn't been in any scenes yet because she's playing the role of the priest and mother. We are planning to continue filming next weekend. I'm hoping the weathers good enough for us to film our beach scenes, fingers crossed. Bye Blog, Thanks for reading!

The Vision Short Film

Throughout the Mystery short film, The Vision, there was a boy looking for his friend throughout a fever dream and never ended up finding out if his friend was ok or not. There was common sounds like creepy music playing in the background. The lighting throughout the short film was very dark and eerie. The boys bedroom as well as all the settings that were shown throughout the film were dark and made a viewer feel uncomfortable. A common editing tactic in the mystery genre is foreshadowing which means early in the film, a hint is given as to what is going to happen as the plot. Another common tactic is suspense. Suspense is built through ending scenes with cliffhangers, making a character complicated, intense point of view, and hints as to what is to come throughout the film.  I really enjoy the suspenseful part about mystery genre films. Throughout all mystery films, there is so much suspense built up because you truly want to know what happened and why it is happening. This quest...

Its Me Again

 Hey Cambridge it's me, Carleigh Tripp, again. I am still a student at Fort Lauderdale High School and I am Still 15, however I am turning 16 on December 21st. I joined AICE media studies because I've always found interest in filming and showing my creative side. So far I've had a wonderful time making videos, especially the latest project we completed. The last project was a commercial and the item we choose was the energy drink Celsius. My favorite part of that project was incorporating the angles and editing that we learned in class. I learned a lot on filming and editing, mainly using editing apps and how to create those cool effects through technology. As we progress through the course I would like to film people who aren't part of the class to get more people than me and my partner. I would also like to include my dog since he's energetic yet can take commands well, if I told him to sit and stay he would. His names Ripley, he's 8 years old and is a Parti P...
