     We tried to film over the weekend but were unable to. We decided to make it during the weekend because we were going to be outdoors, and our phones said it would be perfect weather. Unfortunately, the weather app lied to us. Around 10 minutes after arriving it started to rain. At first, it was a light rain so we decided to continue with the filming. But when we finished our first scene it started to rain harder. We hid under a gazebo, waiting and hoping for the rain to calm down. We waited for around 20 minutes then the rain lightened. We thought it would be best to continue before it picks up again. We had to set up the tent again because when it started raining heavily Mario was afraid of the tent getting wet. After setting it back up I told them we should just film the scenes that involve the tent in case it starts to rain harder again. Long story short, it ended up raining again before we were able to do anything. We’re rescheduling the rest of our filming potent...

Me, Jayden, Mario and Myles all planned to do different things while we make our movie. Since it was a horror movie, we had to find costumes for the main villain. We didn't make a decision because if we bought a bad costume, the scene could be scary and not scary. The hardest part was deciding who would be the main villain. We decided that Jayden was the villain because he volunteered and fit into more costumes. The main villain also needed a weapon and we decided on a machete because we all love the Friday the 13th movies and that inspired us to use it. We were ready to bring our initial period to life. As a last step, I bought all the necessary items and we went to the film set. However, it was a bit difficult because we all had different schedules and we have to find a time that works for all of us. We still plan to do the scenes as we planned before, but we decided to edit the script as a group. This was because when we read the script out loud, we noticed that some lines felt ...

       There are four roles within the group since there are four of us. I am going to be the main character. He is someone who is cautious and afraid of anything that resembles horror. My role is to act afraid the whole time meanwhile providing a tone of anger at my friends for bringing me to the woods. My scenes involve looking for for sticks, sleeping in a tent, and running from a killer. The next person is Jayden. He is malicious person just like the other two friends, but his character has more of a presence than the other two. His role is to pretend to act sympathetic while secretly plotting against the main character. His scenes involve helping the main character pick up sticks and being hung.  Then there's Myles. He is a snobbish character who basically wants to torment the main character. He does this by coming up with plans to scare the main character along with Jayden and Mario (will be discussed next). Although he creates an impact to the film, his c...

      Good afternoon, I'm writing about the music I plan to use in the final film project.  Setting out on the travel of making a frightfulness brief film is energizing however challenging, particularly when it comes to picking the correct motion picture to adjust . Exploring copyright laws might appear dubious , but I've found some helpful websites that make the method less demanding . To begin with , I checked out destinations like Public Domain Torrents and Internet Archive.  They have tons of classic frightfulness movies whose copyrights have lapsed , so they're idealize for adjusting . It felt like I was burrowing up covered up treasures, with each film advertising potential motivation . I moreover looked into Imaginative Commons-licensed movies on stages like Vimeo and YouTube. These movies come with clear rules around how they can be utilized , which makes adjusting them less complex and regards the rights of the makers . Ami...

       Tonight, I'm writing about my first editing blog for our final film project. As someone who has been using Cap Cut since the start of my school year for my classes, I can confidently say it's the best editing software to use. Especially when filming a horror story such as my group is. I had my doubts when I first opened, but I was pleasantly surprised to see how easy it was to navigate and the tips it tells you to help you navigate. I believe editing for horror is a life saver because it changes ordinary footage into spine-chilling scenes with a few clicks. It's easy to effortlessly create an ominous atmosphere using the app's lighting adjustment and eerie sound effects. There are plenty of transitions available along with haunting music that can keep any audience captivated throughout the video, ensuring maximum impact. My groupmate also mentioned that I could use Cap Cut's color grading options to enhance the eerie ambiance of the sc...

      In order to make our film project as realistic as possible I decided it would be best to acquire a couple of resources that would fit well with our script. For starters, in the storyboard there are a couple of scenes that use the tent or have it in the background. I started looking for a tent online which is helpful regardless because my family mentioned they want to go camping soon anyway so might as well get both done at once. But I didn't find anything to my liking so I went shopping in person for one. I went to stores like Lowe's and Home Depot but unfortunately, those places are too costly. In the midst of searching through the tent isles in home depot, my mother texted me saying she found an old tent at home. After I returned I checked out the tent she found in our storage shed. That solved that problem, but according to the storyboard I also need rope. The rope is to symbolize the antagonist of our story and to represent the title "Ha...
