Directing

-

 Before my group and I even started filming or preparing props, I made sure everything was in place. For example, I made sure everyone knew their lines and was ok with them and if they had any ideas that they would like to put in place. Which they did. Hlaey made the suggestion that they should add some words into their lines to make their part in the scene more natural which worked out wonderfully. I went over her idea approved it and moved on to inform the group about the improvement. Aside from changing the script, I sat everyone down and read the entire plot line with them to make sure they also approved it. We thought all the scenes out and we all liked the plot itself so we didn't change much. The only thing we changed for the film was when the cup had the water in it and when it did not. After I confirmed with my group that everything was set in place, that is when we started filming.

Editing

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...
