One big change we made to our film opening was the removal of any music this way we could add Jovani's voice as a voice over to show what the film was all about.
Taking AICE Media Studies is an interesting class as the world is affected by media every single day. It is fascinating to see how the media can be used to target a specific audience to promote a produce or influence someone to be vegan due to the benefits that come with doing so. There are also many complexities that come with filming movies, advertisements, documentaries to make the finished product an enticing allure which I hope to learn and possibly go more in depth through the course of this class. Not to mention, Media Studies has created a profitable industry and many job opportunities for those who choose to pursue it.
Our second day of filming is when we got a majority of our shots. I was camera man and in the film opening I filmed Jovani, Luca, and Chandler walking into the detention room as a dolly shot. The lighting of the scene was high key from the natural sunlight of the windows which was good to capture the mood of both characters when they make impact. The use of the camera angles would also allow our group to show the viewers the main character and the meaning/theme behind the opener film without giving away any key details. Moreover, our group used a drone to capture the school as a opener intro for the film.
I will be the narrator/director that guides this film. For the actors Jovani will be portrayed as the popular kid who everyone likes, Luca as the loner who doesn't have any friends, and Mr. Chambers as the teacher who picks on the loner and eventually the cool kid. For costumes Jovani will come in wearing clean fitted clothes, and Luca will wear a black hoodie with the hood over his head and some other beat up clothes. For now we will most likely not have props. This will take place in school in Mr. Chambers room, the hallways, and maybe in another classroom but we are still discussing it. The dates and times will most likely be throughout the school year. We were planning on writing a vague script and also coming up with stuff as we go that way it seems more natural. The film equipment will be a phone.
