Trouble in Paradise


Hello everyone! The filming process has been very hectic. Constantly reevaluating shots we have already taken our group reviewed our past works. Acknowledging the possibility of retaking some of the scenes since the prior shots weren't perfect. So we made sure our actors brought a change of clothes since we decided it would be best to not confuse the viewers with a random wardrobe change. After analyzing our filming area and the surrounding media studies students we came to conclusion that it would be best to change location and film inside of class instead. Filming outside tends to cause trouble due to the attention we get from other students and faculty. In addition to the fact that our filming period is also during lunch. With these various variables in our past production period it caused some scenes to be sloppy. This change of plans made filming a lot easier for us in the classroom. Although the classroom did come with problems on its own with so many students there we persevered. Having to direct all over again with a different environment was difficult. Surrounding students were loud and we no longer had a storyboard to follow.  The volume in our classroom was intense and our thoughts were hard to process and make clear. This complicated the filming process a lot. Finally over it my group tried to follow the storyboard as much as I can rather than coming up with new ideas on the spot., After retaking various scenes I concluded that our original shots were better. After finalizing everything we gathered all of our bests shot and forwarded them to our editor Jacob to get started on next class. As I have previously said in my introductory blog i have always had a passion for editing. The cutting, adding of sound effects and transitions always interested me. I can't wait to see the commercial come to its finalization.
