First Film Day

 Today was the day we everyone met up and we filmed the first scene. I had woke up last morning feeling a little excited but nervous to. I took a shower and brushed my teeth as soon as I got out of bed and poured myself a bowl of cereal for breakfast after I got dressed . I woke up my sister to drop me to Jahziah’s house since that’s where the first scene is going to be shot. When I arrived I was greeted at the door by Jahziah and her sister. They were already going over there lines and I was tried to help with that. At first the dialogue in the practice was a little choppy and didn’t come off the tongue as naturally as expected. The three girls were doing the very start and they dropped the makeup. I helped pick it up and went to the bathroom cabinet to find a new kit. I brought it back and they redid that scene. As they were going over it I heard a knock at the door. Jahziah had asked me to see who it was and I walked over to see Annabel. Before we were just practicing and waiting un

 Hey blog today I’m just going to saying what my part is in the final task.  On Tuesday my group was urgent on preparing for the filming of the blog. I looked in my closet for the outfit I’m going to wear for the filming of the party. I had some jeans I was planning to wear but I wanted a plain black tee shirt to go with them and I didn’t have any. I had got dropped off at Walmart to buy a pack of black tee shirts when I remembered my group members asked me to buy two items needed for the final task. The items are red SOLO cups and the bag that goes over the main characters head in the final scene. I walked to the third isle to get the cups but I had no idea where to get the bag. I found a worker at the end of the isle and I asked where they were. She told me go to the last isle and they should be in the middle. I got my shirts, the bag, and the cups and went to self checkout. After buying the items I got picked up from the store and went back home. I took a picture of the items and se

Planning blog: Title Design

Image
  The font that our opening credits will be in is something bold and a boxy shape where the letters have sharp edges. The color of these titles will be white with a thin grey border. The size of the text will be about this big. The names of the jobs will be smaller than the names of the person so that it stands out. Working Title: A title we are thinking about doing is "Cyber Snatcher". We're not fully agreed to the idea but it relates to what our final task is about. The titles will inter the screen by the entire thing fading in and they will exit by each letter fading out. Each title will be on the screen for about 4 to 5 seconds so it's easy to read.
