Horror - Get out




• What elements (Conventions) of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?  I will be focusing on the set of this movie. I quite enjoy everything about it. The way that the setting in the movie always makes you feel like you're somehow connected to the people in the movie and equally as scared as they are. When I watches the movie I noticed that when the mood in the movie changes, the setting does as well to help convey that mood better. 
• What elements (Conventions) of the genre did the movie have that you like? I enjoyed the acting and the makeup in the movie. The acting was great and I honestly forgot I was watching a movie in some parts of it. It felt natural and none of it felt like it was part of a script. As well as the acting, the makeup was just as realistic. There's makeup being used to show gory scenes in this movie and it feels real.
• What elements (Conventions) of the genre did the movie have that did not appeal to you? I don't think that I didn't enjoy the costumes in this movie per se, however, none of the costumes truly stood out to me, or had any deeper meaning like all of the other conventions in this movie.

Production Blog

Hey Bloggers! I haven't done a production blog in so long, not since the last project. I cannot wait to write and post these upcoming blogs.

We found that it would be inconvenient to begin filming because our plan was that whoever is going to be in the scene that is being recorded will be the cameraman so, we chose to wait until everyone was ready to film. Now we were ready to film... or so we thought. After they had recovered, one of the group members got in trouble. To overcome this obstacle, we decided to film the scene where they were not in. We could not wait any longer, we had to begin filming as soon as possible. Due to these circumstances the first scene filmed was the photo montage of us. This was the perfect way to start the filming process since it did not require anyone to be physically pres...

Editing Blog: Part 2

 Hey Blogger! In the previous blog, I stoped the editing at the photo montage. Now we continue. Not even going to hold you, I procrastinated wanting to edit. Then I remember this work isn't just for me, it's a group grade.That way of thinking gave me an extra push to finally continue. When I was actually going back and looking the footage was there, a lot needed cuts. There just a bunch of clips of us laughing and breaking character. It was so funny to go and look back on. Moving forward the editing became a group collective. Maria worked on the title sequence, since it was her amazing idea. I just added the scene of her pulling out the knife and walking then I cut it to the scene of her looking Alyssa. For this part I kept it simple since, that's what most movies do when it's a scene like that. Also, since there's a tilt and pan for those scenes, additionally things weren't really necessary. Alyssa took on editing the following scenes, so I don't really kno...
