The process

 I originally wrote the script for this project. When I was writing, I was thinking about who would play who.  Rose said she wanted to shoot, not acting, but I already had it in my mind that I would do it. I don't trust them to film since they filmed vertically once in my  absence. In other words, Rose and Luka will be  actors. Initially, I believed in my script, so I thought every thing would go well. However, after we started filming that thought left my head. They were awful actors! I had a chase scene in the script and they could barley do that right. Rose would have been chased by Luka, to have an altercation. It looked horrible every time they did it. I should have be one of the actors myself. During the rehearsal, it became clear that it wasn't going that great. I should have switch roles with one of them. But we still managed to film everything. As for the story, it progressed and the characters had to become more and more angry/aggressive. But Rose didn't seem to be able to do that and kept laughing. We had to keep redoing it. Luka was the aggressor in the film. She was better at it that Rose was. Compared to her, everyone would seem like a great actor. When the discussion started to get hot, it was more natural. I think having Luka as the aggressive one speeded up the shoot.

Filming

 When I got to the park, I didn't start shooting right away. We were looking for a place to shoot. Rose eventually walked a long way around the park and we chased her. She complained because she was so hot. There were people were we wanted to film, so we went somewhere else. That place ending up being in the front of the park. Installed in the area under the overhang with metal benches. I set up my laptop and opened up the script and storyboard. We hadn't  looked at the details for a while, so we forgot a few things.  Luka/Shannon only remembered the main theme and genre. Rose in particular had to read the script again. After discussing the material and making sure everyone understood it, we had to decide which phone to use. The competition was between Lukas phone and my iPhone, Rose was quickly disqualified because her phone was worse. Luka phone looked a bit better. So we used Lukas phone. I was the person who was filming. It was also the first time I used a phone like that it it took time to figure it out. Apparently on her phone I have to click the record button twice to stop shooting. It took me a while to figure it out. The quality of the camera was ok.

Much needed music

Hello there! Just a refresher if you need it, me and my group are making an intro to a thriller film. With that of corse we will need the basics of the thriller genre. We need to add the elements that make it actually a thriller. One of the most prominent things to insure it being seen as a thriller is the music. Thats such an important factor to our project itself. However we can't just use any song we want due to copyright. We will either need to use non copyrighted music or message/contact the owners of the song and ask for permission to use the song. This is extremely important because you can be sued over copyright. We were thinking of using music that builds heavy suspense. Luckily for use, there are many free music of that type on YouTube that we can use. I will also absolutely edit the audio we choose. I will edit it because it will need to match with the vibe and sounds of the film. I also plan to add sound effects to the audio when we pick the one we want. That make it more unique and match the story we are trying to portray. I really can't wait to finally pick everything for sure. So I can finally execute all the ideas that I have and want us to do. We are family soon so there isn't any need to worry about that too much. We have finally decided on a place to film and we are heading there on our psd day. I am so ready to get this done!

We need a location!

 Hello! My group and I will begin filming for our final mission shortly. We've have finished all of the research we needed to be successful. At the moment, we're currently looking for the ideal location for our filming. This is a critical decision that we must make. Once we've begun recording, it'll be difficult to change our minds. We are taking our time because it would be a waste of time to rush this decision. We'll need a suspenseful environment for our first work because it's a thriller. We've been brainstorming some ideas for regions that will work with our story. We desperately need to choose a location to film. This is getting almost ridiculous. It is just because of us being picky when we already know what we need. The previous location that we were talking about is still a bad idea to me.The reason is the distance, I don't believe we will end up choosing the place. A 21-minute walk is excessive, and I don't believe it will be feasible. We need somewhere that is way closer. I think they still want that location even though it doesn't make sense. It is a little annoying to say the least. I will convince then to make it be closer. Hopefully venting works out for our group.

Unfortunate set backs

 Hello again. Like I was saying last time we were looking for a location. We have come up with one that seems suitable. Rose had the idea of using a park that was near her house. The park is big and spacious, she also said that it was in a quiet neighborhood so we could film around their no problem. I love this idea however there are some things that are issues. The fact that the park is near her home means that it is kind of far from school. I would think that it would be better to go somewhere we can go after school. It is a lot of extra waste to go somewhere far. It would also be easier for us all. I also had a park in mind that my bus stops near. I feel like that would be a better idea for us since we could just get on my bus and basically stop there. However with the problems with the location that rose wanted we still wanted to check it out. We were gonna go there today, but it was raining. It was extremely disappointing since we had planned to go and I had to change plans for it. Next time we make plans we will defiantly check the weather first. I think we will go there next week instead to check the location. I however don't really think we well end up choosing the location in my opinion due to the distance. A 21 minute walk is a lot and I really don't think that will work. But it never hearts to just check it out still.

Were should we film?

 Hello! Me and my group will soon start the filming process for our final task. We have completed all the research that we needed to do well. Currently we are still trying to find a perfect location for our filming to take place. This is a really important decision for us to make. It would be difficult to change once we have started filming. It would be a big waste of time, so we are taking our time with making this decision. With our filial task being a thriller we will need a setting that gives suspense. We have been thinking of some areas that will fit with our script. According to the script it will need to be a big open space. It needs to be big enough for the chase scene. So in our mind we needed a big park to film. Preferably a park that has a lot of trees that it would seem like woods. That way it would make our "film" more suspenseful. It should be somewhere that we can make feel "dark" with editing. It will fitting for our idea and will match the tone of the script well. We will need to first scope out the place to see if it is actually a good fit. It should also be somewhere that isn't too far, so we are all able to be there without any problems. We will talk about it some more to make our final decision together. I feel like everything will come together well. I believe and trust in my group members to do everything just as well as we did lat time.
