CCR

1. The social group or issue that is in my film represented a young black boy having a flashback of his past life and the flashback showed him being arrested by a black police officer arresting him roughly while his friends were with him as witnesses. So this scene shows the issue in life and it shows the challenges that a the young black man goes through. The sound for our film was a very good decision because it goes with our film. Since the film is a drama/crime film you can see and hear the action and since this is a flashback you can see why he is the way he is and how he feels and how the sound goes with it. The credits through the video are very distinct it shows everything, and my partner did that. 2. Since they make good films, our production company was selected. We chose the write production company because we wanted a successful film. we considered as we selected our favorite drama/crime films. 3. My production skills throughout this project have come a long way. Honestly,

What did we learn through the process?

-
 We used technologies that we were already familiar with: our phones. Though I learned how to use a handheld studio microphone that was wired to the screen, it wouldn't necessarily be needed. For lighting, we were only able to use the sun and regular school lighting, which were both high key lighting.

Challenges Along the Way

-
 Problems faced along the way included problems meeting up, problems with vehicles, problems with positions, and so on. The challenges that my partner and I faced in greater depth. The main issue was scouting locations. We were unable to link due to transportation problems, but we chose to show up at school, to officially start filming.  In terms of equipment, I feel like if we had a camera our life would be easier, because through the filming process our phones died multiple times.

What is a Production Schedule?

A PRE-PRODUCTION SCHEDULE    Planning everything is the most important part of making a film, that's why a pre-production schedule and shooting schedule exists. Pre-production is a stage in the development of every project, including commercials, music videos, short films, and feature films. This critical phase determines how effective, coordinated, and eventually competitive the manufacturing stage would be.

What is a storyboard in a film

-
A storyboard is a visual illustration of how the film will play out, shot by shot. It's made up of squares of diagrams or pictures showing each shot, as well as notes on what's happening in the scene and what's being said in the script during that shot.

What will Life be about?

-
Life will be a take away of an artistic black friend group that just don't have guidance whole fins love in street art. They are met with many trials throughout the film which makes them stronger and build onto each of their characters. The storyline will show the perspective of young teenagers. The impact I look forward to is that everybody gets a feel of each character and deeply relate to one.  I will achieve so by giving each character realistic battles they're facing on their own as teenagers, and show their progress as they figure things out and find the solution. Lighting and sound are going to be a big factor in this film. With the shadowy and dark tones of low key lighting, the mystery and complexity will increase notably in the night scenes. To offer an airy and lighter picture, I'm going to add high-key lighting. Although this film will have music for the soundtrack, dialogs/ambient sound will be the key components.  The dialogues and ambient sounds will of cours

Stage 3

I'm supposed to bring things in order during this point of my project so that I can begin shooting. This involves scouting for locations, storyboarding, casting actors, planning the film's look and sound, and writing a schedule for filming. I plan to shoot my film either in a park or at school because with the COVID 19 pandemic many places are limited. Working with my partner Sarah will be challenging, for we have to choose an exact location  for us to meet and film.  In this project, the plan is to have family members and even classmates involved and serve as the actors. These individuals will be available and happy to collaborate with me, I know for sure. In order to make a filming schedule, I have to understand their routine and ease of access. In order to start shooting, I must also get some supplies and costumes coordinated.
