April 8th, final filming session will be scheduled for tomorrow. I can't wait to get these shots out of the way and focus on editing. The best part is I am completely free afterschool to work on it. Usually I may have track practice which deters me from filming during week days. Thus, weekends are the most optimal and productive days to shoot scenes. I contacted my cast members to verify if they would be available tomorrow for shooting. Luckily, their response was yes so working on this project has been confirmed and scheduled. Apart from this, nothing else has changed. I'm still hindered from editing my final project any further until I've recorded the last 56 seconds. The only thing I fear may go wrong is if major props, costumes, or cast members are missing on set. It's been so long since my last recording session was done up until now. There have been multiple accounts where filming had to be cancelled or postponed due to resources missing off set. Everything else like location and safety precautions have been consistent for the most part. One major change that may affect my opening scene's consistency unfortunately involves one  of my actors. The first half of the film takes place outside. However, Gabut's hairstyle has become a lot different since then. This leaves me with the option to either re-record the first scene all over again or keep things moving forward. By tomorrow I will decide which choice is best for the project and production quality. In the mean time I'm excited to start editing again. Hopefully their will be no more interruptions as well.

Intro Blog: Introduction to Music Video Project

Individual  For this project I decided to work by myself. In our current condition as the coronavirus pandemic continues, I believe it will be a lot easier to work alone at my own pace. This way I won't have to rely on others to get their part of the work done. I'm very confident in my creativity to produce a well throughout and entertaining music video. I plan to use actors outside of Aice Media Studies . This means my closest family or friends are likely to be apart of my video when we get to recording. If things were different and school went back to the way things were last year I would've considered working in a group. However, Communication and organization will likely be difficult to control since we'll have to take in to account safety guidelines for covid protection. Not to mention, some kids are in school while others are learning from home. Song    For my music video I chose to use the song  "So Much Fun"  by DJ Mayson . To best describe this song ...

 On March 11th, I filmed the first 15 shots my opening scene for Nunchucks VS. the world. I'm still looking into a better name for the title of my project but until then I don't have anything better. It was a lot of fun filming for he first time on this project since all my other attempts had to be cancelled. Personally, I didn't expect to spend so much on shots that I had already planned out in my storyboard. Most shots required retakes or comparisons for the best optimal take. As I realized this during the filming session, I knew right away all my shots could not be covered in a day. However, I'm okay with that being the case because not only will this make my film more organized, I also get to spend a lot more time with the actors who are better known as my closest friends. During filming the lighting was better than anticipated since we started around 3:00 in the afternoon. The only minor problems that occurred really consisted of time management and outside distrac...

Title Research: Guardians of the Galaxy 2

artofthetitles.com 1) In the Guardians of the Galaxy 2 opening scene all of  the main actors of the film are displayed first as chaos plays out. soon after the actors are mentioned, the executive producer, director, writers, and others who worked on the film are displayed throughout the scene. 2&3) We see all the guardians from the previous movie face off against an intergalactic monster to start off the movie. this displays that intense level of action the audience has been waiting for since the first release of guardians of the galaxy. weapons, explosions, and swords are all being used to the creature down but, the guardians are still getting handled in the process. this makes it all the more funny in the process. 4)      Baby Groot, mischievous and distracted in his own world, dances to music from Star-Lord’s second mixtape while the Guardians throw down in the background, out of focus. The focus on Groot instead of the main action is the first comedic thrust ...
