Disaster Struck


Bad news has just reached me today. We would be able to film for most of the weekend and a few days into spring break because of a golf tournament at the golf course where we are filming.  The worst part is that it would have been a perfect day being not blazing hot and the forecast stating that no rain will occur. We can't even film after since it progresses from the early morning to before sunset. Our film needed to have nature lighting and be outside. If we were to film, it would have been very difficult to make sure everyone wasn't in the way and make sure no one got lost. The film would have been ruined if we were to film on those days. In addition the hazel of finding a spot and being alone will be impossible. Although the plan for the tournament is that it should end around midweek (Wednesday), but it's not completely set in stone.  This set back might make it hard to film since we were all free over the week. They were all usual busy and getting them to free up a weekend will take time. Thankfully, I talked to the other actors about our schedule, and we decided to do it on the weekend after. This may cause problems since the weather doesn't look good so we will have to see. Although it will give me more time to plan the filming to make it smoother.  So, as of now filming is cancelled until further notice. Instead, we still went to my house to review the script and issues. The review was to go into detail about what each person was supposed to do and anything extra we needed to add. I thought that since all three of us are in the film that we would need one more person to film us, a cameraman. I would be the one to find another person while the others would rehearse. The time was set to begin rehearing and all we needed was an area alone and in the daytime.

  Research Our group will be doing a Nike commercial. Typically these commercials follow multiple people ranging from average joes to famous athletes partaking in some physical activity. The costumes they wear are Nike branded apparel whether it be shorts, windbreakers, tennis shoes, sports bras, or headbands. Many of the props used were sporting equipment, specifically basketballs, footballs, soccer balls, towels, water bottles, or gloves.  Almost always the actors are fit and drenched in sweat or more accurately spritzed with water right before the shot was taken. It's almost mandatory for a Nike commercial to have a slogan at either the start or beginning with their most iconic one being “Just Do It” The theme throughout these commercials are fast pace action with exhilarating music to make the audience excited and motivate them to get out there and “Just Do It” Nike commercials connect to the masses by showing world-class athletes or famous figures using the product that t...

Final decision-Action

Image
 I chose the action genre for my opening scene film. Action movies have always peaked my interests with the plot the scene and how they are crafted just make it so perfect. This option is the easiest this action movies have more of my style. Action movie more, so war movies have always grabbed my attention because I love to study history and wars. The atmosphere of the movies just checks all the boxes for me and now that I can create and opening scene to one, I'm all hands on. I already have a great idea of what my opening on my action movie will be. Some of the ones that inspired me were "Hacksaw Ridge" and "Midway" which I loved and learned about. I know how war movies are portrayed, as gritty harsh warzones with empty atmospheres. This experience will help me make a better opening that is more enjoyable to make.  Action was my chose over the other two because I could get much more creative than I could if I was doing horror or drama. I do not watch many drama...
