Production Blog: Costumes

Image
The film that my group is doing is a horror film. The interesting part about this is that there isn't necessarily a set costume for horror films. If it was a coming of age movie then there would be a better guideline for what to wear. However, people get killed wearing anything. This poses the question "what to wear during a horror movie?" It should be something easy to move in. The reason for this being because the actors are going to have to run from the killer. The film unfortunately doesn't have stereotyped characters. This means that there's no geek for example who can wear a button up for no reason. Instead everyone in the film is supposed to be a normal girl. So what do normal girls wear? My group came to the conclusion that a t-shirt and pants would be fine. Since the filming is at night, in order for our clothes to be visible everyone would have to wear a lighter color. The only for sure costume is pajamas. I was just going to wear pajama pants and a whit...

Production Blog: First Half of Filming

 Finally everything worked out and my group could start filming. The process went on as scheduled and everyone met up at Lili's house around 12:00. The day was planned to be a really one day of filming. Due to this everyone decided it would be best to meet up earlier in the day and have some fun instead of meeting later and just filming.

It turned out that taking the picture needed to put in the frame would be the best scene to film first.

While the picture was getting printed the scene with Lili waking up was filmed. Hannah filmed this specific scene and it only took about 4 takes. This was because the movie requires a little bit more acting than the music video. After this the scene where all the...

Film review

  The film is done!!  I am so happy my group has completed this task. In my opinion the improvement from last year to this year is very evident. Lili, Angie, Hannah, and I have all grown together and had a great time filming. Now onto the reviews of this film. My mom was the first person I showed the film to. I was kind of worried about showing it to her because I didn’t know if I could trust her opinion. My mom is a great person but she loves almost everything I do. I really needed critics for the film though which is why I wasn’t sure about asking her. After I sat my mom down and told her I needed a lot of opinions on this both good and bad I showed her the film. The first thing she said was that the film was very interesting. She liked the plot switch and didn’t really expect it. I was happy with this comment as that was the entire point. She also enjoyed the fight scene and thought it looked real. I made sure to tell Hannah that since the group wouldn’t have been...
