  It is the day after spring break and my group and I have not filmed yet. The day break started, Keren, Tiana, and I planned to meet up and film for at least one day during the break. Eric was going to be out of town so we planned on filming Tiana's parts. As well as going over the clips we do have and planning our overall game plan in a deeper way. Although we wanted to film over the break, we did not get to. My group and I did not speak much over the break as well. School has been very hard lately. I think I can speak for all of us when I say we needed this break and used it to relax, which was well-deserved. We spoke maybe once and it was about how the clips between Keren and I went over two minutes. This is a problem as we have not even begun to film out other group mates' scenes. My group and I spoke over the phone today. We are trying to schedule another filming day. Primarily, we were going to film this Friday, as there is no school. However, two groupmates are unable t...

My group and I filmed today. The day started off with school. Because it was an early release day, we were able to get to the filming location at a good time. One of my group members, Tiana, was unable to meet us today as she had to work. It was just Keren, Eric, and I this time. We arrived at Keren’s house around 1:30 in the afternoon. We started the day by discussing our game plan over some snacks. Through our discussion, we agreed to prioritize the scenes between Keren and I. Kc (Keren) and I began getting ready. I already had my costume on since I arrived in it. KC already had hers on as well. The only thing to do was our hair and makeup. Kc did my makeup while Eric set up the tripod for the phone we were filming on. On the first day we filmed, we used Tiana's phone. However, since she was at work, we used my phone.  After Kc finished my makeup, I began styling my hair. In the meantime, Kc was doing her makeup. When we were done with the mis-en-scene, we started filming our sce...

With the upcoming early release day, my group and I plan on meeting at the filming location to film our scenes. It is early release because we are going into our spring break. My group and I plan on meeting up for at least one day during the break.  For the early release day, all members of the group will be there. I plan on bringing the lenses for the iPhone camera that day. I really like the lenses because they really do give better quality videos. My group agreed to reshoot the scenes we filmed on our last filming day. It would be weird if some of the clips differed in quality.  After filming this Thursday, my groupmate, Eric, is going to be out of town. Because of this, we want to focus more on Eric's scenes this Thursday. I am uncertain if Keren is going to be out of town. If she is, then we will be unable to film during break. However, if she isn't, we will schedule as many filming days as possible. These filming days will focus on the just the girl scenes. We really wan...

Today is Wednesday. It is the middle of the week and my group and I have not been able to meet up again. Due to it being a school day, it becomes complicated. Our parents work until 4-5 in the afternoon. We also have other responsibilities throughout the week. Meeting up to film during the week is complication and, honestly, a waste of time. For those reasons, we have not filmed since last Sunday. Ever since then, however, we have discussed some matters regarding the next time we meet. For one, we have decided that the next time we could meet would be on the upcoming early release day. Early release day is next week Thursday. Both Tiana and Eric have jobs so picking a day to film that's flexible for everyone is a bit more challenging. They are starting to work on Sundays so that day might not work anymore. It becomes a bit more challenging as we all live 30 minutes away from the filming location (KC's house). To ask our parents to constantly drive there is not something we want...

Our filming day was on Sunday, March 7. The day began with some complications. I had-ordered some lenses to place on our phones whilst filming. These lenses would provide better resolution, resulting in a better quality video. The issue was that was that the lenses came a bit later than scheduled. I had to go out to different stores to find these lenses, as well as a microphone. I drove with my mother to two Five Below’s. We also went to a Best Buy and a Walmart. None of these locations had these items on stock. Ultimately, I ended up going to our filming location anyways. My group mater were already there. They said they would look for the items at their store. They only bought the microphone and a small stand that came with it. When I got to our filming location, we began preparing not too long after. My group member, Keren Casseus (KC), starting doing our makeup. While she was doing that, we were all trying to plan the day. After she finished, we changed into our wardrobe and began ...

  My group and I did not film yet. We just finished planning almost every aspect of our film two days ago. We finished planning on Tuesday. Because of this, we were unable to meet up and film so soon. In order for us to meet up and film, it also needs to be on a weekend. It at least has to be a day where we can work from the morning to the night. That way, we get all of the filming done in one day. We all live a little bit far from our filming location. We chose it, however, because it was the best location. Because we live so far though, we want to limit the amount of times my group and I have to drive over there. Also, being able to film in one day allows us to begin editing and rearranging. If we have everything we had in mind, we will be able to pick and choose the parts we want. As well as the parts we might want to reshoot. Seeing all of the scenes we filmed, edited, and polished will give us a better perspective when it comes to how we want our film to look. The plan is to f...

  Though, it's common for each slide from a storyboard to be different 5 seconds of the project. Our group decided it was best to show each camera angle, shot, and editing technique that'll be used in our final task. The story board will be 10 sheets long. Each sheet containing 6 slides, with the total of 60 slides. Under the picture drawn in the slide will be a brief description of what's shown in the shot. That description information may vary depending if it's describing a camera action, angle, or editing style that was used.
