Final Task: Three Days

I am so happy and excited to present my final task completed by me and my partner Margarita. After filming and editing I have learned so much about films and editing techniques which can be used for any type of movie. Planning this project carefully with my partner also taught me about teamwork and how great two minds can work together. I am very thankful for my partner's work and the actors as well, I am so happy to have worked with them. I hope anybody who watches my opening sequence enjoys it!

Production Blog: Editing for our final task

Image
On March 6, 2021, my partner and I began the editing process for our final task. To edit, we used After Effects CC 2020. On March 6, 2021 I finished filming all of the required scenes so we were ready to edit. My partner and I had planned to meet up to edit, however, that was not possible because of other scheduling difficulties so we decided that my partner, Margarita would entirely edit the opening sequence while I would be able to suggest and give ideas for editng and approve of my partner's editing ideas. Prior to filming, we had already disscussed a lot of our editing ideas so we used that planning as a guide of what we would include through editing.  Before beginning, I first collected all of the audios I recorded.

Once I cut down the audios, I sent them to my partner, Margarita. Then I collected all of the scenes I recorded and did...

Filming blog: Directing Cantu commercial

Image
On October 27, I began filming at my friends house. I spoke to her about my plan and story board of how the commercial would go and we got to work. First I told her to put on the robe as planned as one of the costumes. Then I got the props ready which consisted of a towel, hairbrush, spray bottle, and the Cantu curling cream product. I set up the bathroom set and planned how exactly I would begin filming. Once I had everything ready I began with the first scene. I stood ready outside of the bathroom door to begin recording the first scene. As the camerawoman I made sure of the scenes that I needed to reshoot as well as the necessary camera angles. Then, I set the camera up as the mirrors POV for the next scene, which had to be shot several times due to minor mishaps. I also made sure to follow my storyboard as much as I could so for the next scene I shot a close up of the Cantu cream. I also decided to add two new scenes. The first scene that was added was the fourth scene which was of...

Genre Research: Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials

Image
  What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have? The movie takes place in an alternative version of Earth since there was an apocalypse going on in the movie with people getting infected with the Flare and turning into Cranks, which are black-veined, zombie-like creatures.  There were multiple settings in the  Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials . There were hospital settings, a shower setting, a cafeteria setting, a room full of bunk beds, interrogating room setting, many hallways settings, a laboratory setting, a desert setting, buildings in ruins setting, and a mountains setting. There was advanced technology involved in the movie. For example, there were advanced weird-shaped airplanes, the safe house facility (which was technically a laboratory facility) had advanced doors that opened when the characters swiped a card, the safe house/laboratory facility had advance medical and scientific equipment, and there were guns that fired...
