Editing week 2

Image
  titles and fonts- in one of the pictures above is shown the title that I ended up going for. in the end I decided to use the fight preparation for the font I've been debating whether using the one in the picture or something more sharp and angular. Video effects- in the beginning of the film where the title is shown I decided to make it so it travels and moves downwards to the corner of the screen. video transitions- for transitions i have decided to use wipe dissolve and fade and I'm also debating on whether to use some more exciting ones audio affects- for audio I ended up using a song that just screams action exercise and hard work after my long search I really like the audio I chose problems- during editing my more serious problem I've encountered is making cuts without making my film too short solution- for solutions I have decided that if my film does get too short I can just film more time spent editing- for editing I spend about 30 minutes a day \people involved- ...

Editing week 1

Image
 Since I'm doing this alone I am editing myself I decided to edit on my phone as it would be easier to edit (I'm editing on iMovie) Titles and fonts- in my editing app I have been looking at the different types of fonts available as well as the title I should use for my film opening, for my titles I'm thinking about something that establishes what the movie is about. So far I have "the fight: preparation" or "fight on" or maybe even "rising up" personally I'm leaning more on the fight preparation. Video effects used I'm thinking about including an effect that also represents action packed exercise since my main theme is a girl preparing for a fight I'm thinking about using strong colors like red or neon ones Video transitions - in my picture above I made sure to take a picture of my editing film in the middle of a transition, the transition shown is slide. I'm planning to use different transitions like dissolve or a fading one. ...

Filming week 2

Image
 In the 2nd week of filming I wanted to bring some positions or clips that would make sure to bring suspense to my film opener in order to make it more exciting. I wanted to make sure I got the right one so I went over many clips that could do that. With this picture I think it will do what I want it to do it will make the audience wonder and want to watch more I plan to put it at the end of the film in order to make a type of cliffhanger.

Beginning to Film week 1

Image
 This week I decided to begin filming. I knew that the first thing to do is decide on locations. With the pandemic I knew it was going to be hard to choose good locations while also being safe. I tried to drive around and look for safe areas preferably outside and somewhere I could distance easily. Unfortunately I couldn't find a location like that so at the end I decided that I should film in my patio, as it would be easier since I'm working alone and the location is in my house. I decided on the patio because its outside and I thought it could help get my message across that my film was all about exercise, I also thought I could take advantage of the natural light instead of worrying about it.  I also tried to maybe look into filming at a park but I didn't want to keep driving to the same park since filming was probably going to take a few days and its not likely I'll finish in one day.

Preparing to Film

actors- Since I'm working alone Its going to be hard to film just but myself although I am determined to succeed in this, even though working alone is harder I don't have anyone in my group that can cause more trouble as well as slowing me down, because of this my actors will probably be me my siblings or some of my friends. costumes- since my plan for my film is to be mostly exercise based as well as fitness based for costumes and outfits I'm planning them to consist of workout clothing like sporty shorts or leggings as well as maybe a sports bra or a loose comfortable shirt for shoes I would make sure to use some Nike lightweight running shoes since they really get the message across that what's happening is exercise   props- For props I would make sure to include the workout items I plan to use my jump rope as well as my punching bag although those are items I would like to use I'm still thinking about including a few more items that I would use locations- Becaus...
