Health and Safety 

We will have a first aid kit nearby in case anything should happen. In addition, we will have a person on standby who is not involved in acting or filming in charge of the safety kit to act efficiently at their job. So if something is to go wrong, they will be focused and able to take the best course of action. 

For shot #1, all participants will watch for cars. We will be standing around the filmer to ensure we can see no cars coming near from all sides. For shot #13, we decided to drop plastic wear instead of glass to ensure there would be no injury from broken glass. 

We will wear masks when we are not acting and follow all Covid-19 safety protocols.


Backup Plan 

We have a backup plan in place for filming days and editing days. We implemented these in case of poor weather on filming days or an obligation that we cannot film or edit. We know we all have busy and changing schedules, so it's essential to plan for these situations well in advance. 

We also have a backup for our actor Marloh Acosta. She is a nine-year-old girl who will be portraying the antagonist of our opening sequence. We hope she will cooperate with us, but we also know that little girls can be fussy. So, Randy Dyer, another little girl, is a backup just in case. We don't think it will come to that. However, we planned so we won't have to worry about that the day of filming.

Clips and Time Crunching

Image
   Now that we’ve finished filming, it’s time to head to our tried-and-true editing app, CapCut. We’ve used this for every project, and I’d like to think we were successful. The first step is adding the clips into the software in order. Despite how simple this may seem, searching through all the videos is difficult. We have to make sure it’s the right clip and place it in the right spot regarding the order. Then it’s time to eliminate time. That’s the most heartbreaking part. You spend hours acting, getting lines, and making sure your costume is correct. Only to have to cut scenes because they take us over time.   When we put the original clips together, we had 7 minutes and 42 seconds. A lot of time is extra. We start filming slightly before and slightly after to make we catch everything. So that cuts down a good chunk of time. Then we must speed up certain clips for the movie, which eliminates a lot more time. Then, we start to determine which scenes are unnecessary a...

  CAMS Aerial Shot to show subject and their environment Wide Shot allows the audience to see the character moving in the scene Close Up helps the audience to focus on one particular part of the character Two Shot to show the interaction between two characters Medium Shot allows the audience to focus on the scene as a whole, rather than just a single character Mis-en-scene Costumes that match the character's energy (crazy or calm) Colored Lighting to Emphasize Kiss Blush as makeup to show Nervousness Phone is used as a communication device Messy Room to match messy emotions Editing Split Screen to show more of the character in the environment and the other character Zoom allows for an extra emphasis Eyeline Match allows the audience to see what the character is seeing Example Films The Wizard of Oz Alice in Wonderland A Wrinkle in Time Elements We Like The wide shot really helps the audience to understand how the character and scene are related The use of a split screen becomes hel...
