Wait... We're done?!

    Hey guys! I have some great news. We finally, finally finished filming all our scenes! By no shock, there were a couple issues, but aren't there always.

    So, what's gone down since I last updated you? We really just had to finalize the ending, the cafe scene.  Instead of filming at a cafe, which was not allowed, we took a drive over to my church, which I am a member of and we got permission to film in the lobby area. We tried to make it look like a cafe as much as possible. I had the idea to bring a plain apron and a rag. This way, it looks like I work in the cafe. Charlize brought her laptop and notebooks to make it seem like she was working. 

    So, we got to the cafe a tad early to make sure there weren't so many people and we got started. I was filmed walking into the cafe and "preparing" for my shift. Then Valentina filmed me from an over-the-shoulder shot wiping down tables as Charlize walked into the cafe. Then, business as usual. I did my job  as the actress and did everything in the script (with a few messed up lines, but we fixed that 😇). 

    Thankfully we worked things out! Now, all we have to do is the voiceover and edit the scenes.

 I'll update you on all of that soon. I'm excited to do so!

Our Pitch

Pitch 1: A mafia boss goes undercover as an ally to avenge the death of her brother. This pitch spoke to my group as we found it to be a serious topic that seemed interesting enough to stay engaged throughout the filming process. In the past, some of our group mates have worked in projects where this has been an issue. At times where the topic at hand is "silly" some cast members find it difficult to focus entirely and stay on task. This can be due to their immaturity and lack of experience with acting. We found this prompt intriguing, creative, and unlike anything either of us have produced before in our other media courses. This made it appealing for us all, and the better choice of our two options. Pitch 2: A secret witch pretends to fall in love with people and then turns them into legos which she collects. This pitch seemed interesting and unique to our group. However, it also posed a question of if our casting crew will be able to give the energy and vibe needed to port...

Reflection

     Hey guys!! Welcome back to my blog. Today, I will be reflecting on the process of my commercial. This is important to do in order to see where I can improve next time and look back on what I have learned.      Speaking of learning, throughout this process I found that I learned a lot about editing while making my commercial. Before this, I had never used the app Cap Cut. Editing has always been a foreign thing to me but an interesting thing none the less so I am glad I got the chance to learn how to do it! First, I had to learn how to navigate the app Cap Cut. I was not sure where everything was at first, but my friend who is skilled in creating films helped me find everything I needed. First, I learned how to add pictures and videos to create a slide show as a beginning template. Then, I learned how to add transitions in between the photos and videos. This was the first step I took to add character and my own personality to my commercial. To add furth...
