 Ambulance 

 Today we filmed our ambulance scene. During our 5th period, we are lucky enough to have a practice ambulance in our EMS room. Paola is also a student in the class so the teacher volunteered to help us and another student. I first started helping to gather all of our props and pre ambulance. There were a lot of medical bags on the stretcher we were going to film on. SO I had to take that off. Then there was a dummy and I also had to move that. Which was super heavy. Then as Paola was starting to put on her makeup, I turned on the ambulance and started setting up the lights I also wanted to make sure there was nothing Fort Lauderdale related in the shots. I started looking around in one of his closets for more props. Then I found spirit wax. Which is for cosmetics and I asked and he said it was a fake gore kit. So we started putting makeup on Paola which started looking very realistic. I started looking over our scripts and storyboards making sure we weren't, is anything. Then I went to Mr.Evans and went over his lines. After Paola finished her makeup, Mr. Evans was talking to us about some EMT-related things within the ambulance and needle safety. Since the needle we used in the film was real which was super cool. After we put her on the gurney and strapped her in. Mr.Evans and our extra Alexander C. got into the ambulance and we ran lines again. Yet when I started filming everyone kind of just started improving. Which made the acting so realistic. We had someone Pinch Paola and after she started actually freaking out. Making her screams actually real in the beginning. I had such a fun time filming this overall. There definitely was a lot of pressure. I felt as if I worked very well under it and hopefully it pays off.

Genre Research: Arrival

Image
  I watched this movie about two years ago and fell in love. The plot, the actors, and the message were beautiful.  Very few films linger in my mind the way Arrival did. But even after several viewings, on each watch, Arrival offers a new interpretation, a fresh point of view, or a renewed perception of events. The movie questions our linear concept of time, this business of starting from the beginning and stopping at the end. But they made us ask, what if time, to suit our intent, could be bent, formed, molded? And she doesn't always have the answers in the future and always has to fill these open holes with up-to-date knowledge from the present; explanations such as the name of her husband, presenting the answer to a science question for her daughter, and how she came to receive insight from the future. In an infinite loop, the future, the past, and the present all benefit from each other. A new perspective on how we live life is offered by the message given. The aliens can ...

The CCR midterm

  The CCR midterm 1.        How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?     Our  product challenges   conventions in  many different ways . We also are representing a wide social class within our video. Essentially the group  that  representing is teenage girls  and also  women in general. Essentially our targeted audience is all and everyone. We are shining a light on toxic relationships. Henceforth we see such acts all throughout our video. We also see highlights from fake friends and such. Our main point of this video  was  to represent the class of women that is essentially not seen because society ignores women's issues especially when it comes to toxic relationships.  W omen  are  seen as  overdramatic  and over victimized. Yet within society, there isn't enough light on these toxic relationships and friendships. Wh...

Genre Research: Thriller & Drama

  Thriller Common lighting in this genre is backlighting, under lighting, and lowkey lighting. This helps to create a dark and mysterious atmosphere and helps to conceal the character's identity, which adds to that suspense.  Some common camera angles are close-ups shots, which exemplify the emotions of the characters or frames an object, to be at attention. Point of view shots allow the viewers to feel emotionally engaged because they feel as though they are the character.  Tracking is a common camera movement that follows the character's action but at the same doesn't spoil the movie.  For this genre costumes usually worn by the antagonist are darker. Weapons are commonly used as props to help convey risk and danger.  The settings are normally in an intense location usually secluded.  A common form of editing in this genre is parallel editing which helps to add tension and illustrate the character's emotions.  The sounds this genre usually contains a...
