Filming Blog- No content

Unfortunately, the blog for this week will not contain much content. The original intention of this blog was to detail our first filming experience. However, my group did not film last week, nor do we have any intention of filming this week. Because of our schedules, our group is forced to push our filming to next week. Our intention is to film everything between Monday and Saturday.

A lot of our schedules couldn’t blend in with this week to film: for starters, this week is your standard school week, so we didn’t have much of an option as far as time was concerned. The weekends are also optional, but it was set in stone from the week prior that we would not film this past weekend. As for this upcoming weekend, it will be strenuous on my group to do anything on the next available filming period (Friday and Saturday). My group (excluding me) is all a part of the FLHS auxiliary, and they will be having MPA on Friday, something that is a great hindrance from filming. Family matters also come into play, as one of our group members also have a family member coming over on Saturday.

Another thing that causes this to be a text of minimal context is issues with our script. Previously we had agreed to do our final project as a thriller about someone who murders people he suspects of committing the seven deadly sins. We had believed that the plot was interesting and it left a lot of room for creativity. However, after doing our research, it was brought to our attention that this idea has already been executed. This resulted (as seen in the storyboard) to a change in plots. This inconvenience may have also contributed to the delaying of our filming.

Despite these hindrances, our group has a plan in order to record and edit by the given deadline. Our group has diligently broken down our week in order to find three days that are best to film and then edit afterwards. Monday and Tuesday are the most available days, so we will record then. Lauren’s birthday is on Wednesday and Thursday won’t be a good day, so we’ve decided to either stay Friday for Saturday or go to Lauren’s house early Saturday morning. The reason being because Lauren’s birthday party is on that Saturday and we would like to record all our footage by then.
