Shooting and Filming Schedule

Welcome back!

As time is no longer an incessant component. Time is ticking! This is our last week before filming. I am very excited to start filming, I have been waiting for this since I started this class. This is it guys! 

But before we can proceed to filming, we must have a schedule to go by. The script and storyboard was quite helpful in completing our shooting and filming schedule. It was just me and my group member. Unfortunately, my other group member wasn't present during this process. But don't worry, we caught her up to speed.

Scheduling was fairly simple, we were able to use Studiobinder and add in the locations, actors, etc. What made this even simpler was being able to separate the script. We separated it from the time of the day it had to be shot in. We only had two categories "Day" and "Night", which was easy for us. 

Let me show you what it looked like:


The yellow represents the day, and the green represents the night shots. We were able to add our actors in through numbers. Actor 1 is a group member as well as actor 2, but actor 3 is going to be someone imitating a cop. Our location is pretty doable, it mainly surrounds our school "Coconut Creek Highschool". What is even cooler is that you can add day breaks in between. 

If you click on one of the shots, this will pop up:


It allows you to be able to go back and edit, if necessary.

We also made sure that everyone's schedule was opened and ready for filming.

This is the end result of our finished schedule:



Next up! Filming time!!

Time to bring our ideas to life.. :)

Case Study of a Mystery Film

                                              Case Study "Shutter Island- By Dennis Lehane" Today, I will be completing a case study on a film of my choice.  I will be talking about the film from its inception all the way to the exhibition. Let's start off! Let's pick a film. I will be picking a film that follows my genre.  I am going to be doing a case study on a mystery film. The film is titled "Shutter Island". I chose this film not only because it is a mystery but also because it involves a lot of the concepts and ideas that we plan on doing in our film.  Let's do a little summary of the film first. This film is rated R and it focuses on a U.S. Marshal in 1954 that investigates the disappearance of a murderer that escaped from an "insane hospital". History/ Target Audience: This film is based on a book, with the same name. This film also stars "Leonardo D...

Stage 1 of my final project

This is the first step towards the completion of my portfolio.  To start off, the kind of movie that I'm interested in creating would be an mystery movie. The basic genre convention of my movie would be dark, suspenseful and murder. It's a genre of film that revolves around the solution of the problem or a crime. Other opening sequences of my genre include background knowledge, showing the setting, the characters and what happened all the way up until current. An opening sequence reveals meaning and tone without giving too much away by giving little pieces of what's to come throughout the story, which makes the viewer interested in the storyline. Depending on the genre, not too much action goes on in the opening scene. There might be some action, showing what happened before, leading up until the start of the movie. The settings or locations of other films in my genre are, but are not limited to, forests, homes, buildings, theme parks, etc.. Almost any place that you can go...

All about Mystery !

Welcome and get ready for an adventure!  Today we will be focusing on the concepts and what goes into mysteries. Let's talk about settings What are the settings or locations where mysteries are filmed? Well. Mysteries are normally filmed in all different time periods. Mysteries are also normally set in various locations. You might mostly see forests, cemeteries, homes, buildings. But these locations can keep going on and on.  Not to mention,  Sometimes the mystery may take place in a magical or unusual place. Most mysteries use realistic or familiar places to make the viewer feel more connected to the story. The more connected you feel to the film, the more REAL it feels to you. As for the timeframe, mysteries are normally filmed in the day. Well, it depends on the TYPE of mystery. For a mystery with murder, it might happen at night or in the evening. Maybe even in the morning? You never really know. There is no specific timeframe, it depends on the storyline of the film....
