Production Blog- Starting Final Task

 What's up gang?

This blog is going to be explaining the beginnings of Camila and I's final project. I will just be discussing the first day of our two days of filming today. After school on February 14, 2024, we started filming. Since that was the only day we could see Santiago, we wanted to film every scenario he was in on this particular day.

First, we set out all the supplies he would need for the scenarios, including paper and markers. All he had to do was sketch on the blank piece of paper, which we had to explain to him. We had to assist him since it took us a few tries to get him to draw anything more than simply scribbles. We each sketched several simple drawings of various objects, including rainbows, cars, trees, and animals.

Because Santiago is still a toddler, we had my mom help explain things to him so he would know what to do. Despite the fact that he would easily become sidetracked, we had to retake a lot of shots. We will be using the rather decent images that we managed to acquire.

We were able to get Camila, Santiago, and I in our establishing photo with my Camila's sister's assistance. She assisted us in filming every scenario where the three of us were present. 

She provided us with an outsider's perspective on the movie and its scenes because she isn't a part of it.

Today, we set out to record every situation that Santiago was in. This meant that none of the individual scenes or the kitchen scenes were filmed. We weren't filming in chronological sequence, so by the time the video was finished, we couldn't see how it looked. However, we were able to capture every scene we want.

We have now completed our first day of filming! I will be discussing our second and final day of filming in the upcoming blog. I appreciate you following along with my process!

Production Blog- Finish Line

Image
 Hey Gang! It is currently my third day of my all about me commercial and the video is coming along great. So far, I have started with an introduction type of beginning for the commercial. I have then followed it with pictures and videos from my sport swimming. What has followed that are brief pictures of the beach and how I have edited the video since than. My progress since then has included photos of my family and I first. I have still not included the sound and music, as again, I want to see how the structure of the video first turns out. With all that considered, my plan is to put in the second song into the video here, but I will still have to see how it turns out. For the photos of my family and I, I wanted to show mostly nostalgic pictures for me. I included a couple of old pictures of my family and then a few recent photos, to show the comparison through the years. I feel the change in music could emphasize this point in the video, to show the importance of my family to me...
