LIFE - Phelanda

 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. 

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.      

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.

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

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.
