 For my final task, I decided to work with my little cousin Lyne. I chose to work with my little cousin because I can always rely on her to get things done. She has had a history of doing well in school and passing her classes. I believe I can rely on her to do well in aiding me on the final task. Working by myself can give me unnecessary stress due to an overload of work. There are a handful of negatives to working alone. I have to count on myself to get every bit of work done. When I cannot get it done, I can ask my partner to take matters into their own hands. Another reason I chose to work with my partner is because I wanted to ensure that the quality of the work being done was good. People tend to put half effort into work or not put their best foot forward. Others just are not capable of creating good work. Then there are those who do not submit any work at all. The positives of working with a partner severely outweigh the negatives in this project. My partner has shown time after time she submits good work. This prevents any bad work from being put in the final task. The plan is still not yet decided on. We plan on getting together soon to figure it all out. As far as settings go, we have easy access to one another and easy transportation. It is very convenient to work with someone I am related to. I can talk to her whenever and get her assistance.

Production Blog: Finishing Our Task

My partner and I decided we need to focus and get a huge portion our filming done. We watched over the scenes that we already filmed and were not impressed. We thought that we could easily do better. We decided that we should start over fresh. This time we entered more determined. Wanted to feel as if we were real actors. Once we started over, we tried to implement all our conventions. Our costumes were straight from our closets. We utilized different angles. We showed different camera movements. We even added the use of sounds. Our main prop which was a doll was designed to look like one of our actors. We wanted to make it seem as if the inanimate object came to life out of thin air. Scene by scene we got different shots in. There was one scene where the camera was moving following two characters. The person holding the camera alternated between the characters in the film. There were scenes that had to be shot twice due to the camera shaking in the hands of the cameraman. There were a...

Production Blog: Trying New Things

 After watching our work we compared it to other opening scenes. In popular horror films there are plenty elements that give it the suspenseful feeling. We decided to use another popular editing application. "iMovie" is exclusive to Apple devices. Although we have not used it in a long time, it is not something we are new to. We went through the same steps of editing on iMovie, but used different transitions and fonts. We found that one of the applications offered more effects than the other. We used the application that we found offered better effects for our genre. The application with more sudden transitions. The one that had a better color scheme. The one that was better for editing in general. We compared both of our final tasks. One of them was obviously better than the other. We ended up choosing the task done on Capcut. We felt the work done on it was more professional. This task would be more entertaining than the task done on iMovie.
