I Got Sick

We were supposed to film over the weekend. Unfortunately I have come down with a cold. My throad burns and my nose is very stuffy. I have been drinking hot tea and taking hot showers to speed up the recovery process. Due to this cold I am not able to film. I feel really bad that I am unable to film. I have some essential props and costumes that are needed to film. I also have the drone that we need for the establishing shot. The group was not able to film any scenes as I am the director and normally control most scenes from behind the camera. Before I got sick I was able to visit where we will be filming. While there I found many spots to film. There are three different elevators. I found that I could take off with the drone from the sidewalk and make it to the apartment without any problems. I will keep practicing in hopes of getting good enough to land on the balcony. I will still practice with the drone even being sick. I will not be near anyone so I don't have to worry about getting anyone sick. If i got one of my team members sick we would not be able to film for a longer time. As soon as i feel better i will let them know. We will then pick another day to film. Hopefully, this does not throw off our schedule too much in the future.

Sound Design

Image
 As a young filmmaker, I was always intrigued by the creative process of putting together a short film. I had experimented in several parts of filmmaking, but one area where I lacked experience was sound design. I had always imagined that sound in a film was simply added in post-production, but I quickly understood that it was much more than that. I immediately realized that sound is an essential component of the filmmaking process and may have a significant influence on the overall quality of the picture. With this revelation, I decided to take on the task of selecting sounds for my current short film production. The initial stage was to investigate and collect various sorts of sound effects that would be suitable for the film. I spent hours going through internet sound banks, looking for the right noises to complement the tone and mood of the picture. Once I got a selection of sounds that I believed would work nicely, I was ready to explore. I immediately realized that the placem...

Critical Reflection

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1O0VTLlQLWBdyy2RgmPyYrZ3gUuE0eIcPHJsCuxOJ3Us/edit?usp=sharing The choices made by the main character represent a person of a lesser socioeconomic status. Due to his financial disadvantage, he must eat a non nutritious breakfast and work harder than others. Most people have full racing crews that take care of their cars for them, these cars may belong to a single driver or could be split between a team of drivers. The main character must take care of his car by himself. This is a reminder of the unequal distribution of resources and opportunities in society, where some people are fortunate enough to have access to riches and resources, while others find it difficult to get by. The main characters' dreams represent the luxuries someone of a higher socioeconomic status would have. You can see cars that are worth four to five times the amount of money as well as the ability they get to drive during the night. This is usually only allowed to be perfo...
