Production blog - Start of recording

  Hey it’s Kester I just came back from school. This is the first blog I did for a while now. Tuesday my partner and I started recording. We talked about starting on the bus ride home. When my partner and I got home I decided to call my friend who was the struggling high school student. When he arrived to my house . Angela and I have started filming. My partner and I have decided to take turns in the filming  for the music video. Then, work on the editing together. It was chosen that I would take the first turn in filming. I wanted to film the past of the struggling high school student first. As in real life, the person playing that role is an actual high school student. Since there was no school on Tuesday, I was able to film those scenes without much difficulty. With one of the actors being a high school student, it's somewhat easy to accommodate the filming schedule around his, even though he has a job. When he arrived to my house I offered him a snack. I told him what the plan is and how I want him to act in the video. Me, him , and my partner went to the backyard to start filming. The camera was dead when we first tried to record. My partner went to charge it for about 30 minutes. When it was charged enough we recorded his part.

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 waitin...

Production Blog

 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 ite...

Production blog : Change of plans

Image
  Me and my group member had a change of plans. I accidentally deleted the clips from my phone. I didn’t have enough storage to save it, so it was lost, and we needed something quick and new. Her and I had to little time to record the original song. Me and my partner had a backup plan which is a whole new song. The song her and I decided was bonkers by Dizzee Rascal.Me and Angela picked this song because it was shorter and when the project first  started her, and I wrote a plot to it as for a backup plan. The plot for this song was going to be a man having a normal daily routine until he dies and wakes back up with a crazy eerie face. There was some foreshadowing in the music video. In the beginning when I wake up regularly the camera zooms in on my phone and the alarm time is 4:48 am. The day goes by with me doing hobbies and as I’m playing football a car hits me. It cuts to the scene of me waking up with the alarm in the background with the same time as the morning alarm. My...
