Costumes

 Ok, so today we started looking for our wardrobe that we are going to be wearing for our film.  Chnicsha Ross (Mia Monroe) Chnicsha is playing bubblier friend of group.  Her wardrobe for the film is basically what she wears on a daily, just casual, but maybe a little bit more on the side of her character.  *If I wear to guess, it would be something this sort. Kenya Foster (Bailey Davis) I don't have any lines in the film, but I play two types of characters, so my part is very important.  *This for the second half of the film where I'm a popular cheerleader. * This is for the first half of the film for my other character.  Fergie Canales (Lauren Grace) Fergie doesn't have as many lines either, but she still has lines in the film.  Her character is more on the chill and quite side and she is more of an observer. So, her outfit would match that and her.   *For Fergie, from her she said she would wear something like this. Jazmin Hill (Layla Smit...

Final Scripts!

Image
 Today me and the rest of the group finally finalized our scripts for both scenes that will happen in the 2-minute film. There are two separate scripts, one for my group members and one for one of the characters that aren't apart of the group but is in the first part of the film.  I did at first wrote the script on paper as a rough draft and then I used StudioBinder screenplay ability to really write the scripts.  *This is the script Isabella's part (the person that's not in our group).        This script is the first half of the film. It mostly takes place in two locations which are the bathroom and the hallway. For the most part Isabella's scene is a slow to fast scene and there's a lot of running.  *And this is the script for my group mate. This script is for my group mates. It's more of a calmer scene and the events a couple days after the killing. And it is to fully characterize and bring to life the characters we created.  (*The picture...

Stick to the Script! -Continuation

Image
 One of my group members sent me the script that they created for them and the rest of members apart of the team.  This is for the scene after the first that happens in the beginning of the short intro. There's not much of an update but I do notice that I will have to relook it and make some changes to it as needed because I do like it, but the format isn't correct and there are some lines that I want to add to give the extra pizzazz that it needs. 

Script Rough Drafts

Image
Today my group started working on our scripts. For me, I'm working on the script for the first scene that's going to take place between the two characters, Patricia and the killer.  I used StudioBinder to help me form some sort of a basis for a script and I just basically just copied an example from StudioBinder and filled in my own script.                      *This is how the script is going so far on my end.  My other group members, Jazmin, and Chnicsha also made a script for their parts as well, but I need to look it over and make some fixes if needed.  I also included other little details into the script like INT, fade in and fade outs, and the camera movements I want to be used when filming that specific shot. There were a few shots I wanted to use for a couple of scenes, but I didn't know what they were identified as since it was never really gone over in class or were more advanced types of shots.

What's Going on in the Film

 Today, me and my group started working on our film.  My group has 4 people, which consists of me, Kenya Foster, Jazmin Hill, Fergie Canales, and Chnicsha Ross. We started off by coming up with the:  Plot  Characters and Descriptions Customs  Locations Synopsis But before we did that all 4 of us decided what we wanted our genre to be, with it being: Teen Drama Ex: *We are teens, so it makes sense to make it a teen drama. Comedy Ex: * It will have some parts of comedy within it.   Thriller Ex: *I took some inspiration from movies like this, especially for the beginning of the film.  Mystery Ex: *It's also a murder mystery. Trying to find out the killer.    We used a template called, Film Treatment Template, to help create the base for our movie opening. We also got some background characters and other people outside our group to help film a scene. We even established what going to happen when we start shooting each, although we are not finishe...
