I wrote about the search for actors in my last blog. It was a problem finding actors. It made all of us very nervous. But, something made us more nervous. That thing is scheduling. Scheduling is very tricky. Especially when one of our groupmates has a job. The job is only part time, but it is hard to change working shifts. So, when filming day approached, we had to work around his job. His job had him working Sunday, Friday, and Wednesday. So, we planned to go on Thursday. This was so we could have an extra day to film in case anything went wrong. But, what we didn't know is that our other group mate had a part time job as well. He had just started his job and could not take days off. If he took a day off during training, it would look very bad on him. Usually, this would be good news but, one of the days he had to work was Thursday. So obviously, we couldn't film on Thursday. So...
Our film's pitch was "A group of friends explore a creepy forest and mysteriously die one after another." Right off the bat, the pitch sounds like that of a dramatic horror movie. That's because it is. Our vision is for a scary movie with dramatic moments. But, we are not sure of the specifics yet. We think we will possibly make the movie of the horror, thriller, or drama. We lean towards the horror genre because we plan to shoot our movie in a spooky place. Namely, the dark forest. We were also thinking of possibly shooting it in an abandoned building. But, that is only possible if there is an abandoned building available. Also, we plan to have killing in our movie. We are not sure what the killing will look like, however. Killing is a popular staple of the horror genre. However, we do not want to confuse our idea with a film that includes killing but is not horror. Another genre we ...
Hello, my name is Carl Backer. I am in the eleventh grade and I chose to take AICE Media Studies for multiple reasons. Firstly, I have some prior experience with video/media editing due to the fact that I've previously had a somewhat successful YouTube channel. I thought that my prior knowledge would allow me to get through this class a little easier in regards to the video editing portions of the class. I also chose to take this class because the information that would be taught that I was not familiar with seemed very interesting to me. I have already learned so much simply from the unfamiliar terms assignment that we had to complete earlier this semester. From what we have discussed in class, I see myself enjoying the class quite a bit. I hope to continue learning more about the film/cinema industry and improve on my media editing skills. I am looking forward to recording my own "movie" and work on those sorts of projects in the future. Though, it may not b...
