First Day of Production

 Hello y'all!

My group finally began shooting for our film opening! We began by shooting "Gianna" which was our group member Arianna, pulling up into her house driveway in her car (which was also Arianna's). An actual camera was brought, but due to the fact it was too dark, the group simultaneously decided to switch it to a phone. For this particular scene, the videos recorded consisted of long shots, low angles, tracking shots as well as various mid shots. The shots of the car varied and the group recorded both long shots along with tracking, to have a more expansive range to choose from when we edit. The tracking shot was utilized for when Gianna was walking up to her house. All of these shots were filmed on a legit video camera, but it was shortly after where we decided to switch gears and film on Candelaria's iPhone camera. Gianna was recorded in her bed, desk, chair, after she placed her backpack down. Also a specific shot in this scene was when we briefly illustrated how Gianna has to go to a physical therapist/doctor to emphasize her injury is serious. 

Also a side note, my group tried to not record various shots from behind (showing her back), as this was a problem that caused many points to be taken off from my midterm. Even though I wasn't there physically to help, I gave many notes on how to film more shots and inserts, as well as taking note of what I can do to help. This first day seemed to be a success and I'm really proud of my group so far!


(My wonderful group filming!) See you guys soon!
