CR

     Bad Deal is deeper than just being an action thriller film. My film is about a criminal injustice, a mafia crew negotiating a “bad deal” with an individual, thus how the film acquired its name. Everyone knows the general concepts of crime and unlawful manners that happens in everyday life, but some do not experience it. This can disconnect people from crime which they can become oblivious to. This is where my film comes to life. Bad deal represents crime in which the audience go on a journey with the mafia and witness all the crookedness behind the scenes. For example, in the first scene where two of the actors were bonding, laughing, and being jolly followed by one of those actors, Shelly, being kidnapped and Marcus making the attempt to retrieve her. Viewers had the ability to sense a feeling and reflect on this scene as their loved ones or themselves can be taken away at any given moment unfortunately. This is displayed when Marcus begins to grieve at that very moment and panic

Production Blog: Time to get Tech-savvy

    Hey!! Remember when I was telling you about how I was gonna get professional and go all out for this film? Well it is safe to say I got it done. Yes, I did it, but the process was not so simple. I began working on the website, for this I used a website builder called wix.com to assist me. This was my first time working on a website yet using wix in general. It was definitely a learning experience. I started by adding in the background and title page for the film this was the easy part. I then decided start inputting information when my website wanted to start glitch out. On of the tabs one of the groups was not deleting that was unneeded. Wix tends to come with templates in which assist you for your website, sometimes these templates come with groups which are not needed depending on the scenario. In mine, I did not have a use for it and attempted to delete the group several times and it did not work. I decided I can actually utilize this group instead and remodel the page for a re

Production Blog: Garnished and Served with Seasoning.

      Welcome back!! I hope you did not think I forgot about this cinematic masterpiece that we have been talking about. In my last blog I finished editing as you may already know. Now some people may just simply export this film to youtube and call it day. But, if it is one thing that I learned from making a short film is to add seasoning. Allow me to explain, after post processing, editing in other words, it is easy to make a few unknown mistakes in which the editor would be blind too. This is due to the overloaded abundance of viewing the same content at one time which can lead to a few mistakes needing to be adjusted flying over my head. It has been a while since I last viewed the film. That is why today I rewatched and edited draft of the film and added the "seasoning." I hope I am not making you hungry. Thankfully, in my viewing of the draft I saw clips that were unaligned with scenes and could have been transitioned better into one another. I did not see this opportuni
