We need to film!!!

Image
Hello! After this week, I'm ready to get back to work. I also think the break was well-deserving and much-needed. I was able to meet with everyone and get back into the swing of things, our first week back at school. Today, when I met with my group, I realized that a problem had caused so many worries. Because none of them could do anything after school this week, we had a hard time deciding when to film. We tried to find a time that worked, and we agreed to meet on Tuesday. However, Zane came up with a much better plan later. I will be traveling for my birthday, which is on April 3, so I will not be able to meet with my group this weekend. Although there was nothing I could do to assist my group, I was somewhat upset. Having said that, zane had a good idea. While I am absent, he and the other two group members will meet to film. Although it excludes me, it is the only option. Additionally, since Kyle is the sole protagonist or main character of the film and the film is based on hi

A great update!

 Hello! I am back after spring break and all energized again. This break was well needed and I also feel well deserved. Today was our first day back to school in over a week and I got to see everyone and be back into the swing of things. I met with my group today and realized that a problem had raised so concerns. We had a hard time figuring out when to film because none of the could do anyday after-school this week. We tried to find a day that worked and we agreed on Tuesday but Zane later came up with a way better solution. I cannot meet with my group this weekend because I am going out of town for my birthday which is on April 3rd. I was kinda upset but there wasn’t anything I could do to help my group. With this said zane came up with a good idea. He and the other two group mates will meet over the weekend while I am gone and film. I know it leaves me out but it is the only way. Also I do not need to be in the Film as Kyle is the sole main character and it is based around his chara

 So we came up with a plan and I think that it is pretty good. Zane, one of the members in our group concluded that instead of going to Kyle’s house to film our production. That we should instead go to jackson’s house as he has more room and more places to capture shots and scenes. As spring break is upon us some of our group is actually going out of town so that absolutely wiped our chances of filming over spring break which really upsets me. I kinda feel like we are falling behind be in reality we have plenty of time. I don’t plan on doing much over spring break though. I am not going on a trip anywhere so I will be home and in town. I plan to work and make some money helping my dad with certain things he does for his job. There is not really much that I can do for this project as the only steps left we have is to film and make blogs upon those experiences. I know that the filming process won’t be hard just long and may take a lot of attempts so I assume we may need a lot of time for

Spring Break Is Near..

     We are back again and today is Monday. Since we last spoke it has been very hectic. We had some bad occurances at school that caused lockdowns and froze our work as a result. We got stuck in our 5th period all day and we could not meet in our mediastudies class. We did not get to talk and we have not met together in awhile. This has posed as an issue because it has delayed us further than we wanted. It leaves me and my group with no other choice than to film over spring break which is approaching in the coming days. It allows for a plenty amount of free and open time. Our group will be able to meet. Another issue that we are running into is that some of my group mates play sports. After school they are busy to well after 6pm and it begins to get dark then. It becomes dark outside and leaves no good lighting to film. I know that Jackson has baseball practice almost everyday and he is there very late. He has no time to get situated and film with us. This disappoints me because I rea

 Hi, friends! Today is Thursday, March 9th and I am back with another production blog. Today is a little weird because I haven't met with my group all week. I have been home most of the week because I have been sick. A lot of people around school have been getting sick recently and I do not know why. So with that said me and my group have not been able to meet with each other. We have everything ready and done, we just need time to film and get all of the shots we need. This can be really tricky because there are four of us and we all have different schedules because we all play different sports and are involved with different things. Which in a sense is a good thing but it makes it super tricky when it comes to planning a good filming day that works for everyone. So far what I do know is that we are likely filming at Kyle's because it is just easier. He has a car so he could take us all home from school and we cold film after school one day. Kyle's house is also like a cen

So It Begins...

    Hello again!!! Today is Monday and I am back for the first production blog of this project and I am waiting and waiting to film. I am extremely eager and I can't wait to one up my last production which was the music video. I did that production alone, so I am expecting this one to blow it out of the water. I have been brain storming over and over in my head to jot down ideas about how me and my group can go about filming this music video. We plan to film this weekend as it is pretty much the first free time we have had to be able to film with the other actors if necessary and our designated filmer. Life has been slammed for all of us I know that. With school it has been extremely stressful. The SAT just occurred so that set back many plans because focusing on that was of the top importance. I plan to film first on Friday at my Kyle's house and get all the shots I need from his garage and driveway. His garage goes great with the theme and music of our production. He also has
