Survey Results


These are the results of my survey. Honestly, the answers were pretty much what I expected, but again, I didn't make the questions super descriptive or meaningful or anything, I just wanted to do a general survey so I could know my peers a little better and try to be more relatable.

Planning!

 After so much research, I finally started planning out my film opening. I've decided to do a coming of age film, because that is a genre that I've seen a lot and can relate to as a teenager. I want my filming to be done outdoors, so I've been trying to build a plot around that idea. So far, all I can think of is good car scene that ends up with the main character getting dropped off.  What plot can be built from that?  In most coming of age movies I've seen, scenes that take place in a car usually feature a fight between two characters while the main character looking out the window. Or, the main character and the driver are having a deep, emotional talk while, again, the main character is looking out the window.  My favorite car scene is from "Clueless," because it's funny and the high energy is something I want to emulate. I've re-watched "Clueless" over the weekend, and even though it's more comedy than I want for my film, I did take ...

Camera Movements

 Today I went over a topic that I accidently skipped: camera movements. The camera movements are the movement of the camera in the film at the scene is being shot.  First there's the pan, which is when the camera moves steadily from left to right. The tilt, which creates a Dutch angle, is when the camera is tilted at an angle, to provide a distorted effect. The dolly is when the entire camera is moved forward or back, similar but not the same as a zoom. A zoom is only when the lens is moved forward, and it allows for the viewer to focus in on what the director wants to emphasize. The reverse zoom works the same, except the lens is moved backwards and it's usually done to reveal the background and surrounding objects.  The crane is, as the title, as shot that's done on a long mechanical arm that's like a crane, which can widely show the area around the character. The steadicam is a done with a device that makes so the camera is steady no matter how much the operator move...

Preliminary Film: Review

 I just wanted to do a little review for my preliminary film.  To start, coming up with the idea was not too difficult. I had other things I wanted to do at first, but since I wasn't able to do them, I had to switch some things around and come up with something else to do. The idea of someone switching bodies with an animal is fun and I think a good intro to a comedy movie.  The filming took some time but it turned out well I think. I tried to get a good first shot to establish the setting and what was going on, and then went from there. My brother isn't the best actor, so it took a few tries to get certain scenes right, but they turned out well in the end. I also tried to show good transitions between the scenes and made it so that they flowed well and were easy to understand. The editing was the most challenging part because I filmed a good amount of content and had to cut some things down so that the story would still make sense but also fit into the time limit. Next t...
