Production Blog: Location Found?

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Good day to everyone! Welcome back to the blog! For the past couple of days me and the group have been stuck on finding a location to film. We still haven’t found one but we have a few ideas. Stay tuned for more.


So, Ben proposed we film the first couple of scenes in one of our homes. The problem is, none of our houses are available. My parents won’t allow anyone to come into my house, not even for a project. The same goes for everyone else. We were stuck until Ayana proposed a solution. She would film the first couple of shots at her house and we could edit someone in. I wondered how that would work since we wouldn’t be there to confirm which shots we wanted. We also have to slightly change the main character from Nat to Ayana since she was the one filming. I was against editing someone in since none of us have that kind of experience to do any of that effectively. So, I said why not Ayana be the main character unless we find another solution? The group agreed. This is working as a temporary solution to a bigger problem. I don’t know how we’ll do this but we’ll figure it out step by step.


That’s the end of the blog! Thank you for reading, it helps me more than you think! Have a nice day.

Short Flim Research: Drago

Drago is a short film that blends fantasy, adventure, and surrealism, focusing on themes like heroism, myth, and emotional growth. In this genre, common camera techniques include wide shots to showcase expansive landscapes or grand creatures, and close-ups to highlight emotional moments in the protagonist’s journey. Tracking shots follow the action, while low-angle shots are used to emphasize the power of dragons or heroic figures. High-angle shots convey vulnerability, often portraying characters as small within a vast world. The sound in fantasy films like Drago typically includes epic orchestral music to amplify grandeur and diegetic sounds like dragon roars or sword clashes. Non-diegetic sound effects add a layer of magic, and silence is strategically used to heighten tension. Background ambience, like nature sounds, helps immerse the viewer in the fantastical setting. In terms of mis-en-scene, costumes are designed to reflect characters’ roles, with elaborate, adventure-ready at...

Short film research: Proaopagnosia

Image
  To fulfill my genre of mystery, I need to conduct research of what that truly looks like. This short film is named "Prosopagnosia" created by Hugo Keijzer. A short summary of this film is about a man who suffers from the condition of prosopagnosia. In more simple terms, he does not have the ability to recognize faces. This is a case where his best friend was murdered and all traces point back to him. The sound is simply  diegetic with dialogue to evoke a suspenseful feeling.  Common Mis-en-Scene I witnessed were the main characters, the setting of the best friend's house, and the interrogation room. The lighting was low only to create that imagined blurred vision from the main character to mimic his condition. The editing consisted of the usual shot reverse shot, over the shoulder, eye-line level, and jump cut.  Along my research, I found other example films such as Death on the nile, Rear window, and Psycho. Now I want to dive into the genre elements that I like a...
