"Revenge": Aice Media Studies Final Task

Hey Bloggers! This is my Final Task. I hope you enjoy!!

Re-editing Blog!

Image
  Hey Bloggers! My group and I are in the home stretch. After this, I'm done! So, I just need to work on editing. When editing Maria had to change up the picture montage scene. So, that needed to be re-edited in the video. When editing, the names of the actors needed to be changed. At first it was like, characters name, then actresses name. That was wrong though, so it was edited just say the actresses name. Also, the names would just all appear at the same time, and that needed to be fixed to. So, I just went to CapCut and edited everyone's name one by one. That was an easy fix, so I don't mind. After that though, I had to fix the notification sound, when Alyssa received the text. It was too quiet, so on CapCut I just looked up "iPhone sounds" and picked that one. It was good enough. A lot of the scenes, just needed to be trimmed. Like the kitchen scene. Also the ones of Paige in the bathroom. There were a lot of bloopers. I should make a blooper reel, lol. But a

Re-Filming Blog: At the park!

 Hey Bloggers! I'm back with another blog. Recently we've been talking about my final task. For my final task I had to reshoot the scenes at the park. Well let me not say, it was a need. I just wanted to redo it because I felt like it was really bad. I can't act, lol. When I did it the first time I kept rolling my eyes after doing every time. I do not know why. Also, my friends kept laughing in the background. So obviously that made it more difficult. Also since the group reshot the scene of me at the tree on a different day, other stuff had to get reshot. Maria and I reshot her scene, then the other scene of me talking, then us walking. When we were at the park, there were kids and it was really windy, so it made it more difficult for us to film. Maria and I had to basically shout for us to be able to be heard. Also while at the park, originally the plan was to film in the dark. But due to daylight savings, that couldn't happen. Literally, it was like 7:30 and it was r

Peer Review

  Hey Bloggers! Apart of our final task is a peer review, so I decided to have my sister watch it. She took media studies years ago, so I thought her opinion would be somewhat valid. I first told her the pitch and mini description so she could have an idea of what the movie would be about. Kind of like how Netflix, puts that those little summary things for movies. I believe they're called "blurbs", but I might be wrong. Anyways, she was intrigued with the pitch and wanted to finally see the video. Before I had to warn her though that this is only our first round of editing. After letting her watch it she was really liked it . One because she knows my friends in real life, so there might be some bias there, but still. She said that the twist of Paige taking her "friends" out one by one was unexpected, which is what the group was going for. She also pointed out the brush transitioning to the knife. She really liked that part, but she said he could look smoother. I

Production Blog: Final Task

Image
  Hey Bloggers! This blog is just going to be kind of able my "journey" while working on my final task. There's a lot of stress when working on this. Yes, it's in a group, but still. Because not only are you working on this, but also you have to do other school work. It can be taxing, but the diploma is totally worth it. I noticed that a lot of my peers in that class had already been like 60% done, while I was at like 30%. Seeing that kind of stressed me and also acted that an extra motivation. I've also seen others whose group mates are literally sitting back while the work is being completed for them. That sucks for those people, but it makes me also be really glade that I'm in the group that I'm in. As a group communication doesn't lack for us which is a strong contributor the success. Ok so when it came to working on the final task. I made sure when filming I completely free on those days, because when you're working on limited time, the produc
