My group and I still haven't been able to film. Juliana works everyday day. George also works everyday of the week. and Jocelyn also works. On top of that me, George and Juliana have band everyday of the week. We decided to film this weekend on Sunday. Jocelyn has to ask for permission. I also have to ask for permission because I don't know if my parents will let me go. I hope they let me go because I am playing the victim. I hope we are able to film and do what we need to do. I will try my best to make it to the filming date. We've mostly been planning because we just cant cant a date and time together. We feel like we dont need that much time and that we can get it done quickly. The problem is that all of my group works and they cant call off anymore. They said they used all of their sick days and days off so they cant use anymore. I hope we are able to film Sunday and that nothing goes wrong.

  For the opening credits to our film, the font that we would like to use will be ITC Serif Gothic Heavy that passes by in the background, such as in a moving scene, or in a still scene where it will most likely appear and disappear as the scene changes. The credits will have a black color with perhaps a red undertone to give that ominous and a slight feeling of unease. The trigger for the credits will most likely be a cutaway or during a tracking shot. We will most likely title our film “Syrian” or “Blue.” The title will be shown in big bold letters to make it stand out. Our plan is to have the title in a red color if its “Syrian” and in blue if it’s called “Blue.” Normally, the names of the person under a certain job will be larger, as well as the name of the position will be in bold such as if the person is a producer, it will be (12 font) Production by: (18 font) [Person]. Our main program usage will consist of many Adobe Products, such as Adobe Affects and Adobe Premier. This ...

Planning Blog: Location, participents, health, schedule

The location we chose to film at was Juliana house. We chose her house because it was the more ideal house we were looking for. We plan on filming outside her house, maybe in her car and inside of her house. That is the only location we plan on filming for now. We plan on only having 2 people participate in being filmed and maybe one person on call. Jean will be the murderer in the opening scene and will be wearing a mask. Juliana will be the victim being killed in the opening scene. We plan on George being on the phone with Juliana as she walks into her house but that can change to Jocelyn. The problem is we plan on having either George or Jocelyn driving Juliana home we haven't decided because we aren't sure if Jocelyn will be able to make it to filming due to their strict parents. We plan on being safe while filming by having a parent check up on us every now and then to make sure we are okay and nothing happens. When we film the scene where Jean kills Juliana we will use a ...

Title Research: Halloween

Image
 An opening sequence that our group decided to research was the classic film, remade in 2018, "Halloween." The site that our group used to research and view the opening sequence of the film was "Art of the Title." The film fell under the genre "horror," which is why our group decided to research into it. In the opening sequence, the titles displayed were the title of the movie, the actors of the film, Casting By, Make-up FX Designer, Music By, Costume Designer, Edited By, Production Designer, Director of Photography, Co-Producer(s), Executive Producers, Produced By, Based on, Written By, Directed By. The sequence was bland, not truly having any imagery except a growing jack-o-lantern from being smashed, which added more to the sequence.  The connotation of the images in the opening sequence give it a sense of that something is returning. Since a crushed pumpkin (or jack-o-lantern) is shown returing, as if a day or a time has returned for something terrible...

Title research: Watcher

Image
 A film that our group researched was the 2022 horror film "Watcher" We used the site Art of the Title in order to view and research on the film. The film followed our genre of horror films. The opening sequence of the film included titles such as the name of the parent cumpany and subsidies, Film By, the names of the actors of the film, Casing By, Music By, Edited By, Costume Designer, Production Designer, Director of Photography, Produced By, Executive Producer, Created By, Directed By. During the sequence, it's not really a image that is prioritized, but more as a set area in an apartment. The shot shows two people in the apartment while it is zooming out. The connotation of the scene is a feeling of being watched, as if someone was watching the characters within the film. The more that it zoomed out, the more it felt as if there was someone or something watching the characters of the film.  The film establishes a feeling of horror as it gives the audience a feeling of...
