Production Blog for commercial

 Today, I finished filming the basketball and football scenes. And as you may know from the storyboard, these scenes are just like the others. I failed dramatically in the basketball scene, which was pretty easy due to my terrible basketball skills. I directed this scene as well as the football scene. Due to the hurricane coming towards Florida, it was getting really windy, so I had to cut our filming day short, but I did get some good shots beforehand. For props, I used a football for the football scene. And for the basketball scene, I just used a basketball. I didn't need too many props today, but it still came out perfect. Although it was windy, which was a disadvantage, I used it for my benefit. I positioned the camera towards the back of the actor while the wind was blowing so it looked more dramatic.

For this film, my group and I used my own camera. So, I had to transfer the videos to my phone and edit the movie. This was a lengthy process but I did a good job. I got all the clips, good and bad, and watched all of them. I got the best clips and left the bloopers and unnatural clips behind. Once I got all the clips and cut some of them for smoother transitions from each scene. I then made sure the lighting was perfect. In some of the clips I did have to edit the coloring to make it appear a little brighter but also still keep that weary effect by making it have a little shadow-like effect.  With that, I moved on to the sounds. For the scene where I am in bed in silence, I wanted to have a glass-breaking sound. So, what I did was when my group went to break the glass for the next scene I recorded the sound on my phone. I then layered that sound onto the film and it came out just as I imagined.

Film Websites and Postcards

  When researching film websites and postcards, I found a website and a postcard for the movie Love, Rosie. The website is pretty simple. It includes the postcard with all the information about the movie, including: Genre: Comedy, Romance; Director: Christian Ditter;  and  Producers:  Robert Kulzer and Simon Brooks. It also included a short description of the movie and a trailer. I liked the addition of the description of the movie, so those who haven't watched it can read it and get intrigued to watch it. Although I think the website itself should've included more information.  The postcard for Love, Rosie included the main actors in an embrace, the title design up front, the actors' names, and a short sentence on the movie topic. I especially liked the short, singular sentence because it can attract people to the movie by making them wonder what it could mean. There wasn't anything I didn't particularly enjoy. For my group mates and my webs...
