Good afternoon! Today we filmed our intro for our film Unlaced, it went very well and we got some awesome shots to work with. We still have like three shots to get but we are going to film that on Thursday. Today we went to Markham Park, a local park with great places to film. We went to the famous "Hobo Hole", basically it is a tunnel that goes under the highway. We did not go in the hole because it was closed up. But we did climb up the ramp under the freeway and got some awesome shots. The one thing I did not like about today is that I had to lay on the ground and act dead, the ground was full of ants that loved to nibble on my skin. The weather today was perfect for our shoot, it was gloomy out, which is the tone of our movie. But it was hazy and it looks like it was going to rain, which it did after we left. One thing I am going to have to do later this week is find a song for the first few seconds of the film. Im looking for something like the Walking Dead theme. S...
Since we changed our idea to a dramatic mystery movie we now have a new target audience, this post will go into detail on who would like to watch this movie and why. So grab your bow and arrow, its time to shoot some targets! (Sorry, that was really corny) The target audience for our film would be anywhere from the ages of 16-35 of both genders. These groups of individuals like to watch dramatic mysteries because it is an escape to their everyday life. They like the sense of mystery for the hour and a half, it is a time for them to be able to fantasize and use their imagination. Check this article out. Our movie also targets gay individuals, men and women. This movie breaks the boundaries of a gay relationship, two men who are secretive about their love for each other is relatable to some but also intriguing enough to engage audiences to fill a theater and watch this. So we are going to surprise audiences' with our twist that our main characters are gay and that one killed t...
We finally got our last few shots today and I have to say, I really like the way our shots came out. We went to Andres' house to film our scenes. We went around 7:00 pm to fits because we wanted to get our shots at dusk and at night. And we got some amazing shots. We played with some cool angles, we used a lot of high angle shots, close ups, and low angle shots to mix up the composition a bit. We also got creative with how we got our shots. I had to get into a tree and get a very high angle shot, I was so scared, I climbed the tree with slides on, I though I was going to fall. Luckily I did not fall. Also we used a chair with wheels as a dolly, and I was pulled in the chair to create a smooth shot so we can get a steady pan. We tried to get the shot without the dolly but it was awful, so the chair worked perfectly. None of us own a tripod, so we had to get creative on how to stabilize our camera. We leaned it up against a tree, my knee, and leaned it up against a car seat. The sh...
