Filming Again

 I filmed again. I brought all the props and costumes. For this film session, we needed the worker's costumes. I brought these costumes for the cast. These were the same costumes from the previous filming. I also brought the car to "work on". I had everyone meet at the warehouse. I put the car on the lift. I had to use race ramps to get it on the lift. There are arms that have to go under the car. The car is too low to put these arms under. That's what the ramps do. Once the car was on the lift I made sure it was locked. The car could fall without these locks. This is very dangerous. We filmed lots of scenes. These included all of the scenes that we previously filmed wrong. We also filmed all of the outside shots. We chose to get them all filmed in a single day so the weather was consistent. Overall it was a great day of filming, but we underestimated how long it would take to film. This means we need to have another day of filming.

Re-filming

 Baised on the reviews I recieved I decided to re film. I wanted to only refilm the necessary shots. I quickly found that this would be difficult. The first thing I did was make sure my group had all of the costumes and props. Ryan was responsible for the costumes for the president and one of the bad guys. Griffin was responsible for bringing a costume for a bad guy along with one of the good guys. Nick brought a costume for each along with the bandana. I was responsible for bringing the camera, the drone, and a few extra costumes. The forecast for the day was different from when we had originally filmed. This ment that we had to re film all of the shots that you could see the sky. These shots included the drone shot and all of the shots in the presidents house. I focused on starting each shot and ending them with a little bit of movement. I decided to do this to speed up the editing process. This movement was very little but I hope it will add lots of value. I also made sure to be a l

Final editing

Today I finished editing.  This is hopefully the last editing I will have to do! I used different music this time. The music that I used last time was not as good for the new type of editing. The movement at the end of the shots changed the flow. It was noticeably smoother. I used lots of fades and wipe transitions. I do not like iMovie for the transitions. The rest of the program is excellent. The transition was not a deal breaker. Re-filming was definitely a great idea. The reviews gave us great ideas and what to make sure we focused on. This made editing way easier. I did not have to spend lots of time equalizing the audio. The dialogue was easy to hear. We took multiple takes of dialogue to ensure we had everything. I sorted through and found the best of each. I then had to add the titles. The titles were not hard to add and only took me a minute to fully add them. Overall I think that the movie turned out great and the editing was improved greatly.

Finishing up Editing

Image
Today I finished editing. My group needed music. I let Ryan pick out the music. He then sent me the music. I only used some of the music. This is because they were not all good. I then added the good ones to the iMovie. I did not edit yesterday. I decided to edit today. I decided to do this because my group would be together. It is easier to edit with everyone there. This is because my group talks to each other. iMovie worked very well for this. I used my MacBook to access my text messages. I used these messages to make the collaboration process easier. I would make edits and then ask my group what they thought. The transitions were the hardest parts to edit. We did not think about how we would transition between each shot. These shots may need to be re-filmed. Overall I feel that the movie looks very good, but I am going to get more opinions.
