Filming Fun (Filming Blog)

 Today I began and finished filming. My friend came over to my house and we got it finished up quickly. Unfortunately,


there were interruptions during it so in editing I will have to just mute it in post. Additionally, due to the horrible weather, the lighting did not play as much of a prominent role in filming. Nevertheless, we got it done. Mirror shots were especially hard since due to refraction it requires a very odd angle. Unfortunately, my friend almost fell down working on high angles.

Though, overall it was a generally fun and good experience. Generally, some issues in my opinion, in editing, is correctly layering the audio over the mute video. Making the video seem a lot more natural generally fluent by making cuts that don't feel awkward. Slowing down the video so it seems longer. Since I didn't get the full 1 minute + I needed, I should be able to just slow it down and reach the intended time. The video seems a lot worse from the expected outcome, in my opinion. I am sure, do hope, I can salvage the original vision. As of now, I'm not sure if it will live it to the expected or needed quality.

 Hello, my name is Christian Smith and this is my tenth blog post for my blog for Aice Media studies. I mostly took this class because, I thought it would be the natural progression from theatre. Similarly I took this class due to wanting to learn how to market and make commercials. Due to me wanting to own a business. It would save money from having to hire a director for commercials and the like. More about me though I am a junior at Fort Lauderdale high school.  I am currently 15.  I think by going through the AS and A level of this class I will legitimately learn a lot about how media works by well of course studying it. In my free time I do wrestling and creative writing.   I also play video games which I find is my most enjoyable past time. My current favorite video game is persona 5 scramble a game with beautiful graphics and animations. My favorite class since well basically forever is history, I think that I like the non fiction real stories more than I...

 Monstrous problems Due to complications last class, I could not film. Now, this put me in a bad scenario in which I only had one day to film. Now another problem is that I did not have a monster energy drink. I decided to remedy these problems in the following way. I had first off decided to cut the monster out of the second running shot. I had then filmed every scene except the monster drinking scene which I filmed using a can I spray painted to be green and black. I then filmed it with my hand over normally where the logo would be. With that out of the way, I decided to get some help getting a cameraman from another group. They were glad to help and did the filming while I did the acting. We had also met some other groups out at the track field where we met them. They helped me time the clips to trim the commercial down to 30 seconds. Past that next class, I should be able to begin editing in which I can finally add the final scene which looks like this I can't really film that ...
