Production Blog: Continuing Filming

 Greetings all and welcome back to my blog! On my previous blogs, On the previous blogs, I explained the annoying process of finding an optimal time to film with my groupmates. Fortunately, we were all able to settle on a date and we begun filming the beginning of our final task in accordance to our storyboard. We all had made a lot of progress in filming the opening, contextual scenes which had revealed the characters. In the time that we had filmed, we had completed the establishing scene, and had introduced both main characters. We had gotten to the part where Thomas was going to drop off his imaginary friend and by that time, it had began getting late. We decided to call it a day and settle with filming tomorrow.  It is now, the next day. My group and I all banded together to try to complete as much of the filming as possible. We were now finishing up the 7th scene in our storyboard. This is when our main character begins driving home from work. I decided to do this scene with my friend's car and I captured a tracking shot of him driving home from work. After this, I finished up to scene 11 of my storyboard with my group filming. I suggested that we end it here because the next scene was going to take a lot of preparation. My group agreed. The reason that they agreed was because the next scene (scene 12) was going to be difficult to act out. It was one of the most important scenes as it would be very suspenseful and it would directly strike the thriller genre. So, I assigned a new date to finish up our filming, which would be in a couple days. They were all fine with this date and we moved on. I knew I would need to help Thomas (The main character) be able to act out this scene, so I helped him just before we left. At this point, I felt I was ready for the final filming session.

Critical Reflection

How do your products represent social groups or issues?     Our product illustrates how social groups are represented by presenting two guys of younger age and lower socioeconomic status who take on a camping trip. As soon as they finish setting up the campsite, they decide to explore the surrounding area of the campground, while doing so, Jean (white shirt) brings up a story of a person who had gone missing while exploring the same parts which he had read online. Riley responds that Jean is being ridiculous. Jean then further elaborates that the missing person was a child they once knew. Social groups are represented in the film as camping as a vacation is representative of a person who is young and of a lower socioeconomic class, which defines the two boys. The social issue of kidnappings or missing persons is also represented as young people are common victims to kidnappings and that missing persons reports garner very little attention in news media which explains...

Group Blog

 For an assigned group project, I was given the task to figure out who to choose as a group member for my group. I had many options on how many people I wanted in a group and I chose to have 1 other person in my group, as it reduces confliction and we can always recruit more actors. It is worth telling you that this is a project to simulate the production of a commercial for a chosen brand. I had many choices for who I would group up with. My original choice was to group up with a different friend but he was already in a group of 5, which seemed like too much to handle. I eventually chose my old friend Lucas. He has many notable specialties in production that work out perfectly for the group. Lucas and I have known each other since middle school. During middle school, we worked on a couple assignments together, so this is nothing new or uncomfortable. Lucas has positive energy and is very hardworking as well as productive. So, after realizing Lucas' background with me and with acad...
