 The kinds of transition and effects we used are fade to black, and cross fade. The sounds we used are bell sounds, and some non-copyright music.  There isn't really any color correction needed.

There was a lot of bloopers during acting because we all just met and now doing a film together. All of us were laughing most of the time. We also didn't know how to act because this is our first time. In one of the scene we were laughing because I didn't know how to play dead.  At the moment I don't have examples because one of my group members has it.

Shot by Shot Analysis (Inspired Films)

Our film

Shot was from Scream. It shows this woman putting in popcorn. 

This shot shows Sarah putting popcorn in the microwave. We want it to have the same ambience of the Scream shot.

This is a shot from the movie “Us”. 

We wanted it to match how frighten they look and how they were sitting all close together.

There were no difficulties. Well the only thing was us not being able to meet up as soon as possible. The only changes we didn't add was the chasing part and the screaming because acting was the best and we wanted the film to be good. 

Difficulties

Monday, February 15, 2021



The technology that was used was just a phone, a ring light, and a laptop. The camera was the easiest because most of us use it on a daily basis. The ring light was kind of complicated because we had to put the right lighting type to match horror lighting convection. The laptop was just used for editing. Most of the items that were used are owned by Demitry Louine. He knew how to work the ring light and phone. He also knew how to edit very well.

Our storyboard was made on StudioBinder. This website really helped us organize where we are going to shoot our opening scene. It also helps us stay on track on which scene is next.  StudioBinder is helping us write our scripts for our next scenes.

Sound/ Sound Effects

My group decisions on sound is to make the movie more scary the examples list belowed are some that we like. 

Music is essential to the horror genre as it helps to create a particular atmosphere/mood so that the audience can create emotions. The tone of the music also helps us determine what is going to happen.

Sound effects:They are sound effects that give the audience a ghostly feeling and intensify their moods and emotion. 

Examples

  • Extream change in pitch: These are used to change the audience's mood quickly, such as playing a long brass note and then suddenly switching to a high pitch noise, making the audience feel tense.
  • Isolated Instruments: Usually, these are used before a key event is about to take place.


Lighting

For lighting we pick a lowing lighting type. We don't want our environment to be bright but bright enough to see the action. 

Examples'
Low light: create a creepy setting
Darkness: Make the audience feel vulnerable. Fear of the unknown





Being used in Production

Thursday, February 11, 2021

 For our casting we Catalina Cardona, Demitry Louine, and Jonathan Merino. Catalina will play as Sarah, Demtiry will play as Malik, and Jonathan will play as James. We all basically picked our own character. We all agreed on who is who. The characters are mainly going to be based off of our personality



Casting

Tuesday, February 9, 2021

During our discussion, we had a hard time picking a location. We wanted a location that fit our script theme. Our location is going to be at Catalina's Place. We will try to decorate it, to make it look more horror-like. 

I hope for something like this because it doesn't look too expensive and looks like it's old.

I want this for the kitchen when one of our characters is getting popcorn and when the characters are chasing each other. 



Location

Friday, February 5, 2021

 Through out our Storyboard we were following our Script. Our Storyboard takes place at a apartment. Suddenly Sarah turns against us because that's what the virus does. She attacks Malik and goes after James. 






StoryBoard

Wednesday, February 3, 2021

 The types of technology that I will be using to begin filming is Computers, Phones, and cameras. These are just the basic things we need.

For sound my group will try to record any sounds during production, by adding real life conversations or making our own sounds. We will try to record sounds in-camera and using a separate audio recording system.

Mise-en-Scene & Actors

At the moment, the only “actors” that will act is Catalina, Demitry, and IThe reason is why we do not have anyone else is because we have not discussed on who will be in it.  

Our film will look dark and scary. Our film will hopefully make u feel scared and getting chills.  For our sound we will like to use high pitch noise to make the audience anticipated if a person with a virus is close. 

For example: 


  • Throughout the film we will film in the dark and sunlight. We will have lots of low-key lighting as well. Back lighting as well. 
  •  Since our film is about virus that makes people kill each other we could make the actors look like zombies. They will be wearing old stuff and tore shirts. 
  • Project designer is basically the location. Our location for our film could be in an apartment like they had for the film Insidious Chapter 3.
