My thoughts on the filming!

Lethologica.

I can't even remember the words to describe my thoughts on the filming. I am going to just say it, I don't like being filmed. My friends do try to take pictures of me but I just run away because I just don't like it. Ever since I was little I hated taking pictures or videos! It is embarrassing to me, and I try to stay away from phones and cameras. To say the least this was difficult, every single shot was embarrassing for me to film. The good thing about this was that I knew if I wanted to get this over with, I needed to do everything right. This came with a disadvantage of course, since I tried to get it over with quickly. Due to that fact I didn't have as much shots to make me comfortable with the results. This is 100% going to lead to problems later.

Right now, I am hoping and praying that editing does the magic. This music video does relay on mainly editing, things light lighting and filters will be added during this time. So throughout the whole time of filming and seeing the takes after, in my head I kept thinking "It's fine, editing will do the magic! Just trust yourself for once". If I didn't keep thinking about that fact then I would never have finished. Since I am also shy and there was no other possible way to do it alone this was also something I found annoying but I had to do it. Of course there where times of frustration, the mirror scene and for some reason the scene in the car. Even though I filmed for 2 days which isn't a lot, I wanted it over with every single second. I hope again that editing will do the majority of work because the raw takes are in my opinion doesn't have much to it. Editing will save me here!



Signing Off,

Kay.

Title Research: The Eternal Daughter

The Eternal Daughter  1. What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?      The Eternal Daughter title card, A film by Joanna Hogg, actor and actress credit, produced by,  co producers, and editor. 2. What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?     A car on a road, and trees in a bunch, greyish brown background and grey background with a title card. 3.  What connotations do these images carry?       It is slowed to makes you feel anxiety. The sequence is gives you anxiety and suspense that you want to wait until it stops.   4. How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset?     By putting up a very hazy scene throughout the introduction, the movie creates a sense of the genre. It has a hazy beginning that makes viewers uncertain of what is happening and what is happening. Suspense can result from this, which contributes to the genre's sense of adventure, fantasy, and action ...

Storyboard

My storyboard of the girl next door! Scene 1: This will be the first scene and this is where the main actor will appear. It will fade in from black to sync with the audio since it also fades in. It will be at eye level and it will be a close up to show to emphases the subject's eyes because of a lyric "red eyes". The set will be a road in order to cut into the next scene. Scene 2: After it cuts away from the close up we move into a medium long shot at eye level. The actor will be drinking a cherry coke and be stumbling along the road. The medium long shot is to show that she is still wearing the same clothes according to the lyrics. Scene 3: This scene she is up against the bedroom door looking distress. This will be at eye level and it will start at as a close up then zoom out in order to transition into the next scene. She is in this position because she is wondering about a certain thing, that thing being something unpleasant. Scene 4: The next scene will pan into her...

Almost!

We are almost done! As of writing this we are almost finished. We had completed filming around a week ago. Now we are so close to finish editing. Like we said previously, we were to continue adding the footage together so then we can make it easier when it came to transitions and audio. We have put in the title cards, and are only missing a few. For the title cards that we have done, we have added transitions for a couple to the title cards and only a footage is left to edit and put together. Right now we are moving things around, because we are slightly worried about the time limit but so far we haven't crossed it. But again there is that slight worry! We do have a way around it if it were to happen. We have sort of an idea of which scenes we can cut from the footage. We also can speed up footage and cut down some footage in order to make time. We have thought on it, just in case if it happens. Right now we aren't over the limit but again we still have footage to add. That foo...
