Difficulties in the Production Process

Image
Throughout the long process of filming and editing I come across a lot of hardships. From the start of filming, there were already a lot of difficulties. This included the search for a set to film at. There were many places that my partner and I wanted to film at, however most of them didn't allow it. The first option that was on the table was an abandoned house that was on the beach as this would be the most realistic. This ended up not being a good set because it was not there anymore. Then my friend offered her dads parking garage, but I did not think the scenery matched the story very well. Finally, the Galleria Mall was the final set and permission was granted to film in this place. Also, finding a place for the beginning of the opening sequence was very difficult as filming could not take place at the school I go to. Finally, deciding upon University of Miami, the drive was about 2 hours to even get to the set. I felt bad because I had to ask my dad to drive my partner and I ...

Final Touches (editing)

 The next day all of editing was completed. They both sent me the clips they each edited and I looked them over to make sure they were good and ready to be all put together. The finished products were gathered and sent to Ashley's phone. Then Ashley put all of them together. Aja and Ashley both edited the clips together in their respected order.

Filming Day at the Beach

Image
On Thursday, December 2nd I started filming with my group. Finding days to start the filming process was extremely difficult for my group. I have work on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. So, my group  and I could not film the sunset at the beach on the weekend. Aja has volunteer work on Monday and Wednesday, and work on Friday. Ashley has to go on Tuesday's to Lacrosse practice and works on Wednesday's. With my schedule I could have filmed any day during Monday-Thursday. However, my other team members had the exact opposite schedule from me. On the weekend I only had Saturday and Sunday mornings available. My group and I decided to film the sunset at the beach on Thursday as that was the only night everyone had available. The first scene shot was the over the shoulder shot of me looking out the window to the sunset on the beach. There were some difficulties that came along the way of shooting this scene. One was that Aja had to drive slower than usual and find an opening in...
