Hey guys, we are back from break and planning continues. This film is unlike any work from last year and it is setting in. Jackson and sean are juniors who have a lot going on. while Sean D is a senior ready to get his diploma which is his last credit and ours too.  Unlike last year it is simpler as our location is right by Jackson's house, it's a forest park where we can film and use the natural setting. We plan to try and start production in mid-February and get ahead of it as junior year is busy but you never know. Our backup time is right after the school SAT as we would no longer worry about that. Jackson and Sean are the main actors along with one of his neighbors which is undecided yet who will act as the victim found in our thriller. Being in a natural environment people can be at risk so finding a safe section without wild animals is a must. Our props so far are minimal as we just need a car, outfits for the actors along with a phone to act as how they call 911. My Dsl

Today I  watched a video about making short films. The video mentioned that when writing, I need to keep in mind what we can pull off. I shouldn't write in things that are not possible when thinking realistically. In other words, anything too expensive should be scraped from the film. The video also discussed the theme and that it should guide the story. Whatever I want out of the story should be kept in mind while writing. It also mentioned that with stories where we want the audience to be surprised, we should not use our first idea. This way the obvious idea will not be given and they will be genuinely surprised by things. It emphasizes that casting the right people is also very important. They need to be able to look the part they are playing. They need to fit the character as well. This will not be a problem for my group. My group will have a member of our group play the each of the main characters and I am confident our members will succeed. They also emphasize in the video t

  The plot is essential in this film. A barber working in a highway barbershop is caught in a deadly situation when he realizes that his first customer of the day isn’t who he expected him to be. Every frame in the film has a moment. This made the film so much better. The acting was very exceptional. Along with this, the film had amazing direction. Some of the moments in the film give you that active feeling of character, which is supported by smooth editing. The tension-building scene also helped to create a better experience while watching the film. The film was put together very well in all aspects. The camera angles made you feel as if you were almost living through the scenes. The scene in which he was drowning was especially enjoyable to watch. The scene showed an angle filmed from under the water which gave a very realistic sense. Overall there were so many small details that made the film great. Throughout the film, sound played a very large role. The extra tension built due to

This video is all about a family; while the two daughters are shown in bed, their interest is piqued when they hear a mystery noise coming from their home. It turns out that their mother has gone insane, leaving these two daughters to struggle for their own safety and survival against their mother, who is out for blood. The most prevalent camera angle shown in this film was a medium angle camera shot, which mostly focuses on the upper half of one of the daughter's bodies as we watch her attempt to solve the sound's riddle. Tracking shots were also prevalent, as we followed the same daughter getting up and walking towards the commotion as she investigated; when she realized her mother has killed her father, the tracking camera shifted back to the daughter. These tracking shots give the impression that everything was shot in one long take as if the audience were there by the daughter. The ambiance was most important in this picture since we only heard the volume of rain pouring f

  The film is called "Jet". The film begins with an over-the-shoulder shot of a man in a car peering through the front windshield. In the distance, an automobile speeds up a slope. The camera pans to the side of the man's head, revealing that he intends to murder himself as he draws a handgun to his side. A little girl bounces down the street at that very moment, and the man puts the gun away in the van, pulls up, and kidnaps the daughter, making him think about what to do next. The scene then cuts to a man cautiously making his way across a woodland line, looking to see where the car had gone, and then sprinting through the trees toward the house. He stays in the bush, dashes across the front yard, and hides behind the vehicle just in time to see a man come over and take the girl out. After turning a corner, the man runs across two more men and kills them both. The man then discovers the girl seated on a stool, while the title card plays. The film excels at using noises,

The opening scene of the short film Other Side of the Box starts with a stormy, gloomy night. A man with a scared look on his face is driving all around the city. In the rearview mirror, we catch views of a shadowy figure who looks to be following him. After pulling up to an empty warehouse, the man quickly enters and locks the door. The figure seems to have already found him despite his attempt to find a place to hide. When he hears footsteps he turns and sees the dark figure waiting in the doorway. With a smile on his face the figure approaches and stands above him as he fell and hot the ground while trying to run. He begs for his life yet the figure lungers forward pulling out a knife. A struggle broke out and he attempted to fight back. When it looks like all hope is lost a group with guns pulls up and storms the building. The man is saved and the figure is captured. It gets revealed that that man was hired to silence him from the major trial he was a witness to. The man was saved

     The science fiction film Le Jetée, which examines the idea of time travel and the role that memory plays in shaping our perception of reality, is influential and highly regarded. The film recounts the tale of a sent back in man time to forestall a future debacle. Who utilizes a progression of still photos to portray the occasions of the story. The film's use of still images creates a dreamlike atmosphere and a sense of uncertainty as the story progresses. One of the significant topics of Le Jetée is the connection among time and memory. The film proposes that our recollections are not only a record of the past. Yet additionally an approach to molding how we might interpret the present and what's to come. As the hero turns back the clock, he is compelled to defy the recollections of his own past and the manners by which they have molded how he might interpret the world. The film likewise investigates the possibility that the demonstration of recollecting itself can be a typ

       The film "9" is a 2009 vivified science fiction flick coordinated by Shane Acker. It depends on a short film he made in 2005 that was designated for an Oscar. That short recounts the account of some cloth dolls getting by after the world finishes. In the midst of the forlorn scene, the person 9 finds that cooperation is critical to endurance, prompting startling coalitions. The short is around 10 minutes and spotlights on one doll, 9, as he awakens in the obliterated world. This gets a lot more done in the entire movie, making the world and characters more complicated. It's north of 90 minutes and follows 9 and different dolls battling machines attempting to obliterate them. The film's essential bad guy, known as the 'Creation Machine', gives an imposing test to the heroes its scary, mechanical plan and determined pursuit. Another distinction is what it looks like. The movie has a more polished appearance due to the use of computer animation, whereas th
