Gathering the props!

 Welcome back to another production blog! This week we planned on getting together Saturday but I found out I had a debate competition. So, my group decided on after school Monday. This is perfect for all of us because we can walk from school to Wilton Drive to record what we need to. My group talked about what props we need to bring for Monday as well. I figured Andres needs a suit for his character. Since he is playing Santana and he needs to be a lawyer, he needed a suit for his character. He needed a suit anyways for debate so he used this as an excuse to get one. While he did that, I focused on getting any other props my group needed. I needed to find a briefcase since the lawyer character carries around a briefcase. I asked my Dad if he had any briefcases for his work and he said he would look for me. I looked around my house to see if anyone had anything that could be considered a briefcase and unfortunately, I couldn't find anything. I called my mom and asked her if she had anything and she said no. But she gave me an idea. She said I could look at a thrift store. I asked her if we could go together to look on the weekend and she said yes. So, on Sunday I will be going to the thrift store to find a briefcase to use for our video. I'm super excited to see what I will be able to find. The basics of our video are coming along well. I can't wait for Monday!

Preparing for recording!

Image
 Hello everyone welcome back once again!! So while I wait for the day my group can record, I can get all the props and stuff ready. Since we all are recording after school, everything we need for recording needs to be taken with my group next Wednesday. To record and get good quality, we will need a decent camera. I prefer cameras over phones because they are better quality. They also make it easier to edit the video together since you can export all the shots onto a computer. My dad has. many cameras so I will ask him to borrow one. We also need someone with a steady hand to be able to record. Or we can use a tripod. personally, I prefer a tripod since it ensures the steadiness of the camera. Along with that, Isa will need to have her red dress ready. One other very important aspect will be the script. As of now, we have a vague script and layout for what will be said. I think it will be better to have more of a set script. For the next few days, I will be working on a script to m...

Unleaded (Thriller): Short Film

Image
  The short film Unleaded begins with a black screen, typical from a thriller short. The audience is only given the sound of what is revealed to be a person filling up gas at a station. A woman is shown to be sitting in her car as she looks inside the gas station. She then is shown to be watching two people robbing the gas station inside, one pointing a gun at the cashier and the other holding him down. Another car pulls into the gas station and the women watches the car very closely. What is going on in the car is then revealed. There are two men in the front and a third in the back. The two look to the back and at the third guy as he objects to going inside the gas station. It is not known if they are aware of what is going on inside, but the man who was objecting in car ends up going in, putting on a gray hoodie, and walks right past the robbers. The robbers notice and one sneaks up from behind the guy in the grey hoodie and points a gun from the back of his head telling him to ...
