The Neighborhood

  Hey, Blog! Finally, the group decided on a location for the neighborhood scenes. We were only a short distance apart, so we had no trouble getting there. We walked around the neighborhood first to find the best location, then began assembling the tripod for filming. We talked about how each scene would play out and rehearsed the lines and shots. We had wind interfering with the audio of the actors during filming, so we had to retake the scenes or wait until the breeze died down. Fortunately, we had my AirPods and used them as a microphone to overcome the wind, and the audio sounded much clearer and of higher quality when we rewatched the scenes. Everything was going swimmingly, including the weather, and the only issue we encountered was when we had to film scenes on the road. Sometimes cars would drive by and we would have to stop production to give way, forcing us to restart some of the scenes most of the time. We also had a driving scene in the film that caused issues because we didn't want to hold up traffic, so we decided to reshoot it at a later time when the road is clearer. Nonetheless, we completed the remaining shots and rewatched them together to determine what needed to be redone or cut out. Following that, we went to a nearby park for lunch and discussed our meeting times for the next film day.

      In the short film it addresses the issue of selfishness and taking someone for granted. In the beginning of the film, it starts out as a moment of rekindling of friendship between the two characters, where they highlight each other on significant moments in their life separate life and the one they both shared before. By this the audience gets a grasp of the two personalities of the characters and as the film develops and the scene changes the audience also gets to grasp the unfavorable traits of each character. For example, in the film, the first encounter of the issue was the character going inside the house to get changed, and the other waiting outside for a long period of time, which showed how one character was acting selfish in regard to other character waiting outside. In the progression of the film, we see that this behavior continues but it gets continuously worse overtime, and eventually both characters engage in an active and direct argument over the issu...

Comparing Le Je Tee, the short, and 12 monkeys, the full-length movie

  Video:  What is your takeaway from the video? 12 Monkeys is a 1995 science fiction film that tells the story of a time traveler from the future who is sent back in time to prevent a deadly virus from wiping out most of humanity. The film explores themes of determinism, the potential consequences of time travel, and the importance of human connection. One of the key takeaways from the film is the idea that our actions, no matter how small, can have far-reaching consequences. The film also suggests that the future's not set in stone and that it can be changed through the choices we make in the present. Additionally, 12 Monkeys highlights the value of human relationships and the power of love to overcome even the most dire of circumstances. What good information did you gather while watching it? While watching the video I recognized clamps such as zoom ins to a medium close up when the woman is being shown in 12 monkeys. And how the shots of the people were taken closed up to c...

I am working with Nurdlie, a friend that I recently made. We share a lot of similarities and have the best time together. I chose to work with Nurdlie because I trust her with my grade. She is responsible and reliable. I trust that I can rely on her for help and support. She also shows a lot of commitment to her work. She is a visionary and I am a strategist, which made me think this was a good balance for a team. We’re skilled in different things, which I think could be helpful for this project. This way we can combine our ideas to make something that represents us. We share different ideas and perspectives and tell the honest truth about what we think of each. We tell each other when we make mistakes and improve on them. We work really well together. Nurdlie is also very time organized, which could keep us both on top of the schedule. Communication and efficiency are one of our strongest components, we keep each other updated and put time and thought into our work. We are both very f...
