 This basically is my final film. We decided to take out the audio just because. Filming this title sequence was very interesting and really helped me understand the making of a movie and how much time and effort goes into it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49HynV6aqnQ

 The cast we chose for the film was the three main characters (Shanelle, Cassandra, and Kayla) and then we have the background characters: Ary, Nana, Shamaria and Amaya. For filming, we'll have Nae's dad film and guide him thru using different camera shots and angles. 

  Okay so for sound and sound effects we were thinking of doing dialogue and using microphones. There wouldn't be any sound effects, tho there will be background music. For lighting, we may use a ring light tho it won't be very required because we will be working in the evening when it's dark but not to the point where it pitch dark so around 6-7:45 pm. I don't have much to write for this blog post but that's my basic decisions on sound, sound effects, lighting, etc. 

      So this is the beginning of getting everything we need for the schedule. First, we have location and scouting process and decisions. Nae and I have decided on doing the film at a corner store that's in an urban neighborhood. From this location, we move onto the sidewalk then to the park which the scene ends there.  The way we want the opening scene to go is all the girls' walk out the corner laughing with their drinks and snacks and the little sister gets concerned about somebody following/watching them, to which she then goes missing and the scene ends with the girls calling the police.

  Case Study  This is my case study. It was actually pretty easy to do. Naheliah and I did our case study on the movie Saw (2004).   So I in the middle of writing this, I totally forgot why we decided on the movie Saw. I think it was because it fit the horror/mystery genre range. At this point of the project.

 So I'm doing the storyboard and I'm lowkey mad because I have to do it myself. It's not hard but, it's a very long process when you don't have anyone else to do it with you. On top of that, the script is not written correctly. I'm so stressed and it's a lot on my plate because I'm starting to feel like I'm carrying the project. It took forever to figure out how to do the storyboard because, once again, I'm doing this myself. I take a little longer to do parts of the project because I don't want to turn in anything. It's not like one of those projects where submission counts it's more so understanding and producing quality content. I still need to catch up and do more blogs. I can't wait to just film and get the project over. Everything from casting to location has already been determined now it's just filling in the blanks. I'm gonna check my script again to see if Nae put the camera shots but I don't think so. That&#
