Production Blog: It is looking spot on!

    Greetings! As you may know from my previous blog, filming is finished! The second day of filming was very exhausting and lengthy. This was because the scenes left were action intense, and contained dialogue. In order to perfect these it took multiple takes to shoot each individual scene. There was a fight scene in which we were able to make pretty realistic after several goes. Do not worry, no one was harmed. Despite the time consumption, it was safe to say I way pretty satisfied with the results. I finished wrapping these scenes up and get ready to head to home, it was already midnight. Today I reviewed all of the clips from my phone and organizing them by the scenes that will be used and trashed. I did this by using the favorite tool from my phone and compiling the clips into a seperate folder for easy access. From this point on it will be easier to import them to my computer for editing. When carefully viewing each clip of footage, I pinpointed each minute detail in the clips I chose and started planning ahead with them. For example, in one of the dialogue scenes my cameraman accidentally put his finger into frame blocking the lens. After noticing this, I pinpointed and added a timestamp of where this mistake arose and brainstormed ways to sovle this. I cannot simply leave this mistake in the scene as it would provide unprofessionalism and direct the audiences attention away from the film. Unfortunately, I am not able to make the 35 minute drive back to Nandika's house and film this one scene over again. Although, all is fine because from my previous knowledge in editing films, music videos, and commercials from last year I would be able to solve this issue. Other than this mistake, all of the other footage is looking perfect and ready to be edited. Hopefully by my next blog ill take you on my experience of post processing.

Final Preparations

    Lets get prepped for the filming process! My group partner and I are ready to start filming this movie and we are excited to do so. If everything goes well, my next blog should talk about how the process before, during, and after the filming process went. Before we begin filming it's a must for me to make sure that we have all the materials required. Materials would consist of additional props that may be used in the movie. Some props we have considered to use was multiple variety of dog toys or anything along the lines resembling the dog. Leashes may also be used to show the actor walking the dog, thus enjoying time together. Addtionally, form of transportation is important. No transportation means that we will have to completely revaluate the plans and lcations for this project. Fortunately, my partner has a car and will be able to drive to the park, and I will be assured to have a ride as of now. After traveling to the park, my partner and I will go to the next location, his

Our pitch

  Pitch 1: After an advanced and professional murder in a confined area a group of tenants works together to identify the murderer.  Pitch 2: After refusing the spouse's pleas for a puppy, he/she caved and accepted the offer to purchase a puppy. During training and destroying their house along with other destructive things as a young pup. As the pup grows older the man/woman who didn't want the dog eventually ended up loving the dog dearest.  Based off of pitch one we believe it would be easy to execute and follow through with the general idea of a murder mystery because it is simple to understand. Continuing our project based off of pitch one is possible. The setting of pitch one is also important because it can help throughout the film. We have access to possible locations to film. Along with locations other things working on our side are the people it wouldn't look good or well played out with only the 2 people. Because murder mysteries always have upwards of 10. Based o
