Filming Issues

 Filming Issues

     Yesterday I was looking at my shots on my phone and I realized that I lost all of my filmings I had done of the skateboard. This was something I had not through of or anticipated in planning. I had originally planned on filming my next scene today but once I saw that I had lost the film I decided to re-film what I had lost. Before re-filming to ensure I wouldn't lose my film again I made copies of all of the shots. After I made copies I then moved them to a USB so I wouldn't lose them again. Once I did that I went back to my storyboard to see what shots I had to re-do. The storyboard was really good because it was a great reference especially when re-filming. I'm glad I did my storyboard to specific detail because it really helped with the ideas I had for shot angles which really pulled together each scene. The scene I had to reshoot was the skateboarding one of the mystery person skating. I used the solutions I had come up with before such as sitting on a different skateboard to film. Everything overall went smoothly and after filming I went over and copied all the film onto a flash drive. I don't know what happened to the film but I am very grateful that it only happened to a couple of shots and not all of my filming I had done. Now I truly understand how essential it is to ensure that your filming is copied and saved. I didn't get the chance to film and new scenes but I got to film all of the old ones. I ran out of sunlight by the time I finished filming the old shots. When the sun went down I would finish filming because I would like to keep my film lighted by natural light. Since daylight saving happened it is lighter longer outside. This is great for me because I can film later into the day without having to stop because of lighting. Overall today although it was an inconvenounce to re-film I learned a lot. I learned to copy film, how important a story board is, and that I should keep lighting into consideration. My filming has been going great overall.

All About Me

  All About Me     Hi, my name is Vanessa Gilbert and I am a sophomore this year at Fort Lauderdale Highschool. I live at home with my mom and dad, and I have a sister who lives in college. I love all animals, and in addition to my family members, I have a dog names biscuit and two cats named rainbow and teddy who live at the house and are basically family. My favorite class in school is usually science but this year I am excited for a couple of my classes too. I especially am excited for AICE Media because I have always been really interested in movie making and how the idea of a movie comes together. Besides going to school most of my time is taken up by softball which is something I have played and loved since I was 4 years old. I play travel softball for a team in plantation and I played for the high school team last year too as a catcher. Softball takes up almost all of my time after school with practices and going to tournaments on the weekends but I still have a gr...

Comparing 9, The Short, and 9, The Full Length Movie

Comparing 9, The Short ,and 9, The Full Length Movie Short Film  Today I watched the short film 9. This is a seven-minute-long animated short film. I really enjoyed watching this short film. The characters were really unique. I honestly liked the rag doll's appearance of some and the robotic appearance of others. The setting was also very unique and cool. It had a post-apocalyptic feel and somewhat reminded me of Wall-e. The sound is what really made an impact on me most though. There was no dialogue in the short film. The only sound really heard is diegetic and score. The lack of sound helped set the mood of the short film a lot. It made moments feel more scary and suspenseful. The sound of the robotic spider characters made me feel as if I was inside the film. The plot was interesting too. The main character is a rag doll-like with a 9 on its back. 9 seems to have had a mentor or a friend in the past. 9's friend has the same appearance but with a 5 instead of on its back. The...
