Production calendar

 Today we will talk about production calendars. This probably wont be too long because production calendars are an feasible concept in filming. We will talk about what a production calendar is and why its important during filming. 

What is a production calendar and why is it important? 

A production calendar is a type of calendar which consist of the list of dates that you will be shooting your film. The production calendar is very beneficial towards filming. Just like the strip board, it keeps you organized and makes sure that your not over the place. When shooting you want to make sure everything makes sense so a production calendar makes sure you have everything in order. My group production calendar has helped us see what days we wanted to film. It was very useful because we got more organized even though the date had to change a couple of times.

Conclusion  

In conclusion, the production calendar is a very key important thing into completing your film. Of course it is hard work to make one and you will be stressed, but it is helpful in the end because your organized. This production calendar is very important so I recommend you make one before you start filming.

Strip boarding

 Today we are going to talk about strip boarding. Strip boarding is another important key to filming our opening scene. Lets just get right into it. What is strip boarding? Strip boarding is a chart containing color coded strips each strips containing information about a shot or scene in the films script. This is also somewhat of a calendar and can help you in creating your production calendar (there will be a blog for information on production calendar). This is a very important thing to do so you can be cognizant of what's going on in each scene. It can also help you film quicker. For example, in my groups strip board we have ours color coded by location. This is a very helpful technique because it helps you make filming everything a whole lot easier. It also helps you finish off shooting locations and ensures you that you don't have to go back and forth with locations. For our opening scene we have two locations. One which may consist of one our house or just use one of our ...

Post Production week

 Hello welcome back to my blog. Today we are going to talk about how the process we are currently going through. Our process The process that we are going through is very stressful yet it fulfills us with joy. After we finished the script, storyboard, and every other item in the process of starting film, ideas started to emerge in our minds. Instead of flash forward we thought of doing a flashback and instead of recording in this area we will record here. Just lots of ideas starting to form that we would re-look our own script. I feel this normal. For example, when your writing an essay or going to order food you wouldn't have too many ideas at first but when actually are doing you start having many ideas. We actually started film on Wednesday February 23 but we didn’t finished and had to redo it. It was so stressful to shot because of distractions and other people who didn’t know of then project just coming up and asking questions or just watching in general.  Most current...

Top 3 favorite film opening scenes

 In a class discussion we talked about our top 5 favorite films. I picked  Granddaddy day care, Scary movie, The trap, A haunted house 2, and Night school. All these movies are found on Netflix. So today I’ll talk about the opening scene on my top three favorite films.  Granddaddy day care Granddaddy day care is a comedy movie found on Netflix. It’s about a guy who wants to be a novelist but also has problems with money. His father in law needs a place to stay and him and his wife decide to let him stay as long as he needs. Needing to pay bills and find a quick way to make money he decides to start something like a day care for seniors at his house to make money off of that. Granddaddy day care opening scene showed the book that the man was thinking about and how he was having trouble trying to write it. This helped me see that him trying his best to make a perfect book meant that writing the book was important for his future and the movie will show later on why it was im...
