Filming at Trevors

On saturday me and my group meet at Trevors house to start filimg our video. I was the first to arrive. Once everyone got thier the first thing we did was dicuss whatwe would be doing that day. I brought out the story board and we decided. We decided that we would film the opening scene, the scene of sydnit walking out. And the scenes where Trevor would need to be driving. The first thing we did was get in the car and film trevor. After maybe 15 minutes of driving we got the 4 scenes we needed. Then we went back to the house to film the first scene. In this scene Trevor yells at Sydni who then slaps him. It jump cuts to her slamming the door and walking away. I filmed every thing we did that day. That scene took about seven tries. On sunday, trevor and Sydni went to the Dolphins football game. They filmed a scene there and sent it to me. We discussd when we would film the rest of our video. We decided that on wendsay we would be able to go to the best a shoot the rest of it. We have about half of it left to complete. Then we can edit. I presume i will be editing most with the help of my team. However, i do enjoy editing the most.

Peer review

the last step is peer review. Now that i finshed editing all i had to do was get feedback, and fix what needed to be fixed. teh first people that wastched was my group. Naturaly. Then i showed my parents. Then lastly my friends. And my friends parents. the reception was great. But i encourageed them to be more honest. There were some easy fixes. One of them was the score. It was a little lackluster. Becuase i never got the rights to the song i wanted to use it was a struggle. I had to look through royalty free music. BUt it all seemed so bland. Like an ad. not a movie.SO i went back and looked more. I decied that the score with the use of no sound. And diegetic noises i could create more emotion. I finshed up editing and showed them once again. Much better.

The mid shot shows the character looking directly at you. The high angle shows them walking through the rain. The low level shows the contrast between the colors.

The Dark Knight - A common camera camera angle used is a close up. Close ups like in the scene where the joker is being interogated, or when the detective is leaving the room. This shows emotion is the charcters. Another common angle used is the dutch tilt. THis creates a sense of uneasiness for the audience and foreshadows to what might happen next. Over the shoulders shots are commonly used to. They show equality between the charcter, adn even though they are fighting, they are equal to each other. The lighting used is dark, creating a menacing and dangerous mood symbolizing the jokers character to the audience. Batman was dressed in his superhero coastume which is all black to create fear, adn whn he was not wearing his batman costume, he was wearing a dark suit, to still keep the dar mood. The dark mood was also elevated by the setting. Low, dark lights and rain were added to the scenery of a tall city. The acting was very serious as comomn for the genre. Props used were weapons,...
