Reflection

Dear Passionate Media Followers,


   I am writing my last blog to you guys before I upload my finish CCR ( which I finished yesterday) and my finished film opener!!!! Looking back at this process, I have learned a lot about myself and the things I am able to do with a mindset. I feel extremely lucky to get the opportunity to have worked on this project. I especially and so lucky to have gotten to work with an incredible team that has supported each other through every single hardship, mistake, obstacle, and success. I am proud of the work that we created and can't wait to see what the world thinks of it! I also want to thank everyone who has helped my group and I create this film. To the actors, to the people who lent us their homes, and to the people that bought us food on set. I appreciate each and everyone of you and this project would not have become a reality if it wasn't for you! With that said, this is the last time you will hear from me. I hope these blogs were useful to anyone. Until next time.....

Music Change to Beginning of Film Opener

Dear Passionate Media Followers, 

  I think I have found alternative music to use in the beginning of our film opening during the montage scene of our film opener. I found a trap beat on Youtube created by a small local music producer, which is not copyrighted. The beat is called Dazed & Confused" Juice Wrld x YNW Melly x Trippie Redd type beat. I have attached a link to the beat below. I reached out to the creator of the beat just to let him know we would be using the beat he created and, to be politically correct, I asked if we could use it! I will let you guys know if he gets back to me. I just emailed him, but after I publish this blog I will reach out to him on all his social media platforms.

Viewing Party

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

  I also wanted to fill you guys in on something that I am trying to plan. I am so proud of the film opener that my group is producing that I am putting together a viewing party for the film opening. I plan to invite some of my family members and friends one weekend over to my house to watch the opening. I think I am going to have the viewing party on April 20th. I even am going to try to challenge myself by cooking for everyone for the event because I really have to learn how to cook before I go off to college in a couple months. I will let you guys know if this event works out!

Making Changes to the First Edit

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

   Today, is my first day back from spring break and it feels really good to get back into the groove with school. Today, I am meeting with my group to look over the edit we did over the break with the video. As of right now, I think there are only three things that we really need to change. I think we only need to change the background music during the montage scene because that music isn't royalty free and the individuals who own the rights to the music aren't relying to my emails. I found another song that could work well for that scene, so all I think we are gonna have to do is import the new song onto the timeline and shorten/lengthen some of the clips on the montage scene to flow better with the music. I also think we should add an establishing shot of the house before we have the first shot of the main character's eyes opening. Besides these two things the only thing I think we have left to do in terms of editing is maybe clean up the cuts and audio in the bedroom fighting scene and car crash.

  Today, during my groups meeting I am also going to start working on my critical reflection and making sure my group members are keeping up with their blogs. I also plan to try to make a flyer for the film.

Getting Critiques on Our First Cut

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

         My group meet up the day after we finished making the first cut of our portfolio video. We decided that in order to make the video better we should send it to some of our friends and family members to get their opinion on what we should change or fix. I attached the videos of the people we sent the video to below.

2+2= First Cut Finished

hDear Passionate Media Followers,


     Last night at about 12am a fellow group member and I finished the first cut of our film opener. It took us 2 days and about 4-6 hours to finish this first edit. To be honest, going into this, I didn't think it would take this much work. We had to import all the clips to Premier Pro, cut all the clips together on multiple timelines, add all the effects to each clip, add all the texts to certain parts of the film, add color corrections and color graded each scene, edited and even created some of the audio, and add the 8mm film grade overlays. Let me tell you guys.... it was a mission and a half. We decided to break up the edit into three timelines. The first timeline was the montage scene of Miami, the second was the arguing scene between the main character and his mother, and the last timeline was the car crash scene. I have attached pictures of all three time lines we edited the film on below.

Arguing scene between main character and mother^

Car crash scene^

Montage scene ^

    Also, after we finished editing,  I capture our reaction to watching the video for the first time. I decided to only upload the ending of the reaction video because we don't really say or do anything in the start of the reaction video. 

  Before I conclude this blog,  I want to explain why I titled this blog 2+2= First Cut Finished. The reason I did this was because at the start of this project my teacher showed us a Ted talk. I don't remember the name of the Ted talk or who even gave the speech, but through this whole process I have always remembered that the speaker said, "don't give the audience the 2 plus 2 equals four.  Just give them the 2 plus 2. " After watching this I knew that the speaker meant that films shouldn't just spell everything out for the viewer, they should allow the viewer to put things together in the film themselves, but to me this statement meant so much more. To me, this meant that when creating a film one should always try to dig a little deeper. Always try to make films that have a message and a purpose in this world. Most importantly, when making a film don't take the easy way out. Always try to make something that your proud of and don't give up when times get hard. This one quote as followed my through this whole process and I think this quote was one of the reasons my group decided to stick with making this film opener instead of the other one.  My group could have just shot this whole film on our phones, slapped a couple clips together in iMovie and be done with the whole film in one day, but we dug a little deeper and worked a little harder to make a film that we are all very proud to have made. I can't wait to show all my classmates and my teacher this film. I think I may even create a separate blog showing all my friends reactions/critiques to seeing the film for the first time. Well that is all I have for today. I will talk to you guys again soon! 

Sincerely,

Matthew Liebman

Our Title is......

Dear Passionate Media Followers,


   This is not going to be a very long blog because I am basically just going to tell you guys what the name of our film is and why we chose that particular name.

   So.......without further further ado the title of our film is: FRICTION. We decide to name our film this because our film is about a boy using skateboarding as an outlet to get away from the abusive home he lives in. We thought this name went great with the whole skate boarding part of the film because friction is needed so individuals don't fall off their skateboards because skate shoes and the top of skate boarder are specially designed so that there is an increase in friction. Furthermore, we also chose this name because tension between two moving things causes friction and there is a lot of tension between the main character his parents.

  As shown, friction is the perfect word that could sum up our whole film. I was surprised that it only took my group about 10 minutes of brainstorming names until we came up with this one today. I think I am going to make a film poster with the title later this week. If I end up making one, I will attach it to this blog later in the week.

   Well that's all I have for you guys today. As I said, this blog was going to be short and sweet. Tomorrow, we are going to continue editing the film. I am excited to update you guys on how the editing process goes.

I got bored today, so I just made the poster instead of making it later in the week.....

The 2nd Journey has begun.....

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

    Today, we started the first step in editing the footage we shoot for our film opener last weekend. To be totally honest, during the first steps of editing I am feeling a lot of pressure and anxiety. I believe I am feeling this because  my group has worked incredible hard to get actors to act in the video, locations to shoot the video, extremely expensive camera equipment to capture our story through a lens, and have asked people to really go out on a limb to help us make this film possible. I think these feelings are more intense now because I know   this is the make or break moment. If we can't put all the puzzle pieces (video clips) together in the correct order our video will come out a complete flop and I definitely feel like we would let down all the people that helped us to bring this idea to life. Maybe, I feel this pressure because I tend to be a little bit of a perfectionist and probably have an undiagnosed case of OCD. But, I want this video to come out incredible not only to be proud of the work that I helped create but also because I want to make sure that I tell the start of a story that I think is incredible important to tell.

   I will definitely keep you all updated on our editing process. Today, we only organized and labeled all the clips. Tomorrow our plan is to start actually piecing the video together. Our plan is to edit individual scenes in the film opening and then to finish this sucker!

Sincerely,

Finalizing the Plot for the Opener

Dear Passionate Media Followers,


        I have great news to report!!!! We finally finalized the plot for the video. Below, I have attached a paragraph that my group put together outlining our plot for out video.

   Our video will either start in two ways. First, it will start with a montage of clips from Miami. If while editing we decide not to start with the montage first, we all agreed we would start by showing a black screen with audio of two parents screaming. The video will then cut to clips of the main character getting out of bed. Next, the child's mother will come storming into his room and the main character and his mother will get into a verbal fight. Then, we will cut to clips of the character running out of the house with his skateboard. As the skate border rides away from the home the title of the film will appear on the screen. We are deciding a title for the film this Sunday. I will write a separate blog about the title on Sunday. After the title disappears, we will cut to clips of the skateboarder getting hit by a car. The end of the film will be a shot of the car and the main character laying on the ground next to the car all bloody. I have attached the picture of the final shot below.

   I know this is a very board plot, but it gave my group a very good idea and plan on how to edit the video. To be honest, I think our plot may change a little bit as we edit the film. Furthermore, aside from finalizing the plot to the film, my group started to organize all the footage and save all the footage on multiple hard drives. 

Sincerely,
Matthew Liebman

Starting the Editing Process

Dear Passionate Media Followers,
            Since this past weekend we concluded filming put film opener, today my group started editing our video. We have decided to edit using the software called Adobe Premier. We decided to go with this editing software for a number of reasons. The first being that it would give us a lot more capabilities to color grade the footage we shoot because we would be able to use LUTs. This would allow us to make the footage have the film look and esthetic that we are going for. We decided to buy different LUTS, than the ones that I told you guys we were gonna buy a while ago. Instead we decided to buy these two color grading packs:

    Furthermore, this program would allow us to insert film overlays so we can make our video look like it was shot on an 8mm film camera. I have attached pictures what we want out footage to look like.

  We don't know for sure if we want to make our footage have the 8mm look, but we are going to see if it looks good. Editing on Adobe Premier will also allow us to take advantage of Adobe After Effects, so we can add interesting effects to our footage.

   Overall, Premier Pro is gonna be the best editing software because not only is one of my group members certified in using it but also because it is great for beginners and even powerful enough for professionals. So, me and my fellow group members can hopefully learn how to use it quickly and it is every easy to color correct. As well as, the program is fairly inexpensive. I am very excited to get to

WE DID IT !

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

   I am very happy to announce that (drum roll please) WE FINISHED SHOOTING THE FILM OPENER!!!! Everything ended up working out perfectly. A friend of mine even surprised me when my group had our meeting at Dunkin Donuts at 8am with an intense amount of equipment. My friend brought us a lighting kit, an audio kit, two camera kits, and an Atomos Ninja V monitor/recorder. We shot the whole film opener on a canon c500 with a canon wide angle cinema lens and a canon 70-200mm f2.8 L lens. We also shot the B-roll of Miami on a Canon T6s. My group members got a little mad at me for making them bring all their equipment, but I told them I had no idea my friend was going to come in clutch. With that said, we stuck to the plan. The only thing is that we decided not to go to the skate park and we just went to Wynwood to shoot the B-roll of Miami and to get shots of the actor skateboarding. My uncle thankfully didn't get mad at me for being late because he ended up being late to our location in Surfside and we waited for him.

  Even though everything worked out, it was still a very chaotic and stressful day. I think it was like this because we tried to fit a lot of things in a very short amount of time. As well as, since we were using very complex camera equipment there was a little bit of a learning curve at the beginning of shooting. I have used a canon c100, but I have never used a canon c500 but after a couple minutes shooting I got pretty comfortable with the setting. I also think that a lot of the craziness and stress of the day came from the fact that we really didn't have a detailed plan. I think we had an idea of what we wanted to shoot and how we wanted the film opener to look, but we really didn't ever sit down as a group and plan each shot of the film opener from start to finish, so we were really had to think on our feet during the whole shoot. I can definitely say that when the day ended, I realized how crucial  planning is in pre-production for a film. The last three obstacles I found as we shot the film was because of the complexity of the film equipment only two people in our group knew how to use the equipment so the two other group members really couldn't help out a lot which caused me to get frustrated with them multiple times during the shoot, but during the middle of the shoot I figured out things they could do to help with the shoot. Furthermore, shooting outside was a major downside because not only did I get a major sunburn, but I also almost passed out midway of the shoot because I didn't drink or eat anything all day. Lastly, we shot most of the opener hand held and because the c500 was so heavy, I struggled many times with keeping the camera on my shoulder. Thank goodness I didn't drop the camera because I probably would be grounded for life if that happened.

Overall, it was a great shoot. I learned a lot about how complex filmmaking is and how much planning matters. Furthermore, I really can't thank my friend, the individual's that acted in the film,  and my group members enough for working incredibly hard to finish shooting this film opener in one day. I know we have a lot more work to do in post production, but I am excited to see how our film opener turns out. I have attached pictures from the shoot below!

I am Terrified

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

   I am moments away from shooting this whole film opening....I am about to go to Dunkin Donuts to meet up with my group to have a mini pre-production meeting.  I was so nervous for this film shoot that I made my father come with us to help us! Personally, I think I am so nervous for this film because I don't feel like we planned this shoot at a very in-depth level because we didn't gave ourselves a lot of time to plan every detail to the shoot. Furthermore, my group is trying to film the whole film opener in one day. We are shooting at three locations, with multiple talent, a lot of heavy equipment, and on top of that we are shooting a majority of the film outside. I think the pressure of shooting this whole film opener in one day really kind of got to me. I know there is a lot of variables can go wrong today, so I am praying everything works out.

  All in all, I think the one thing that I have noticed from doing research for this project is that when creating any film you always have to trust the process. I know that whatever happens, my group is going to create a killer film opener. I hope that in the next couple hours after we film this opener, I can report good news!

Trusting the Process...... the Creative Process

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

 I also just wanted to write a very short blog about something I have learned about through the process of making this film opener. The thing that I have learned is that you have to trust the creative process. I came to the realization that when you have an idea you want to create a film about, there will be many obstacles that come your way and many changed you will have to make to your film, but in the end everything is going to work out and you are going to bring to life an idea that you once had in your head. I am starting to realize that I shouldn't get so stress out about the little obstacles in the production because everything always works out.

 Okay, that's all I wanted to say. If your a filmmaker or an individual in a creative field reading this blog, I hope this blog helps you because I am beginning to realize how hard it is to be a filmmaker.

Group Meeting

Dear Passionate Media Followers,

   Today, was a lot better than the last time I made a blog. Today, I had a meeting with a couple people in my class about out projects. Some people in my group were working on magazines and others were working on other film openers. This meeting really helped me to finalize the plan for the film opener. Also, during the meeting, I found another problem with the film plan. Due to the fact that, last week I was under the impression that we could use the inside of the house in Surfside, Miami I asked my uncle to meet us there to act as the abusive father  to the kid in our film. As I explained in a previous blog post that since we couldn't film inside the house in Surfside, we decided to film inside the home of one of our group members and just shoot on the outside of the home in Surfside. I felt bad telling my uncle that he didn't have to come because he cancelled previous plans to come act on our film, so I asked the people in the meeting what I should do about this. They gave me a great solution. They told me that instead of cancelling on my uncle, to instead just make him be the driver that hits the skateboarder at the end of the film opening. Well, I am taking their advice and I hope it works out! The only thing that I am worried about is that since we are shooting this whole thing in one day that we are going to take too much time at my group members house in the morning and my uncle is going to be waiting in Surfside. To avoid this, I am just going to make my group leave the house we are shooting inside at 11:30am, regardless of what we have shot, to be to Surfside on time. I edited the shooting plan to properly adjust our film schedule to make sure we get to everywhere we need to go so my uncle doesn't get pissed and so we get to shoot everything before the sun goes down.

Here is the edited film plan:

8am - Meet at Dunkin Donuts  

9am -11:30am Everyone meets up at Nicholas's house

Shoot:

-Scenes in house

12:45-2pm  Go to house to get scenes running out of the house and of car crash

Address of the  house we will be shooting in: 9048 Garland Ave, Surfside, FL 33154

2:45pm- 4:30pm shoot at skate park or Bayside Park  

Address of skate park:  NW 1st St & Northwest 3rd Avenue, Miami, FL 33128

5pm-7pm B-roll of Miami

Address: 601 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL 33132

Problems..... Problems...... and MORE PROBLEMS

Dear Fellow Passionate Media Followers,

Today, I cannot say was a particularly good day. Due to the fact that my group decided to stick to our first idea we ran into a lot of issues. The first of many issues was the owner of the house that one individual in my group got us to film in contacted us and told us we couldn't film inside of the house. Since filming in the house was a major part of the film opening, we had to brainstorm other ideas to get around this issue. Our group thinks that we may just film the bedroom scene in one of our group members home and just film on the outside of the other home in Miami. We are going to have to compose the shots in the bedroom perfect, so we could make it look like a bedroom in the house in Miami,FL. If compose the shots well I don't think this will be a problem, but this issue is really stressing me out. If you didn't know, I am a person that has to create a plan for everything I do and if something doesn't go according to the plan, I freak out. I called my father, who is a news director for Telemundo, for a consultation and he told me this would be fine. He told me his friends at Telemundo recently were shooting a new telenovela called: Betty en NY. He told me that the tv show takes place in NY, but instead of paying for all the director, cinematographers, edits, talent, etc. to stay in NY to shoot the tv show they rented out a couple buildings that had similar look to NYC offices and he showed me a clip and I couldn't even tell that the tv show was shot in Miami. After this talk, I felt a lot better and more confident in the film we were about to make.  

 The second issue my group faced was getting adult actors to play the father or mother for the yelling scene in the project. I did get this resolved at 2PM because I got my uncle to act in it and another individual in my group got their next door neighbor to act in it. I think we are going to use the actor my group member got instead of my uncle. Due to the fact that, I don't really think my uncle is the most talented actor.

 Well.... that was my day today. I hope tomorrow it a better day!

Sticking with Plan A

Dear Fellow Passionate Media Followers,

  We have decided to stay with making the skateboarding film opening. The plan for the video is the beginning of the video is going to be a cool fast montage of the city of Miami to establish the setting. The next couple shots are going to be a kid waking up to his parents arguing and his mom barging into his room proceeding to verbally attack and physically attack the child to establish that the kid lives in a verbally abusive household to establish part of the conflict. The next couple shots are of the kid running out of the house with his skateboard. Next, we will capture the kid skateboarding and end the film opening with the kid getting hit by a car to grab the audience’s attention.

I definitely think as we shoot the actual film, we are going to change the plot around. As well as, I definitely think that while we edit the film we are going to definitely change the plot around, but I think we have a really good enough idea of the plot of the film opener. I told my group we are going to shoot a lot of content when we shoot this weekend, so if do change the plot of the film opener, we won't have to likely reshoot anything. I haven't decided if I want to make an updated story board, but I may have to.

Since we are shooting this film opener this weekend, I will be updating you guys a lot on the last minute changes and the process of shooting the film from start to finish. I am currently preparing myself for a VERY stressful weekend, but I am excited to see what we are able to capture on Saturday!

Putting Our Plan on Paper

Dear Fellow Passionate Media Followers,

  I talked to my group on Thursday about changing the whole film opener idea. They were a little scared with the idea because they were worried that changing the whole video idea this late in the production process could make the video look rushed. I tried to explain to them that, in fact, this film opener could look a lot better than the original idea. My group said to give it two more days to see if we could get a home to film at in the location we want to film at.

  I agreed to this plan, but today I talked to my friend about reserving a plane for next Saturday and he told me he would reserve the plane tomorrow. As well as, I called the lense rental company in Miami and they said they would reserve the lense for me for the weekend and give me a 20% discount on the lense because I told them this was for a student film project. I also got all supplies that I was in charge of getting today at Publix.

Storyboard/Plot Summary:

Modern film based in 2019. (SKATEBOARD FILM)

Film opens with an establish shot of a house, alarm clock is going off. Actors yawns and looks around. Yelling can be heard in the background - his family is having an argument. Actor not shown.

Dad  “turn your alarm clock off now” in an angry voice. Arguing continues as main character turns off alarm and gets dressed. Setting shows a room of a kid who is interested in skateboarding, with different posters on his wall that depict this idea.  Fully dressed in a typical outfit of somebody that skateboard wears. (black/cargo jeans, plain shirt high socks). Actor finished getting dressed walks in living room.

MOM “Jared, what did i tell you about turning your  alarm clock on”

Son “ im sorry” The relationship between the parents and the son is noted in which appears to be abusive although not enough is known to make this assumption thus far.

Dad drops glass on the floor, shatters every. Low angle shot of glass falling

Dad upset “clean up my glass now before i step on it”.

(low pitched ringing noise begins, kind of annoying but not loud enough yet to be a big deal for viewers.)

(furthering abusive idea) Son cleans up glass

“Now get out of my house”

Son grabs skateboard and leaves how shots of him riding down the street are shown jump cut of varying tricks.As he is going down the street he misses a ollie and falls ringing intensifies that is a sound motif paired with his parents. Diegetic sound is not heard anymore and the ringing intensified.

At this point the son is at town center skating the stairs and we seem him trying to jump over the stairs. Every Time he falls the ringing gets louder until it becomes inaudible. Quick cuts show 3-4 attempts and finally last attempt low shot slow motion. Lands it rings disappears silence for a second. Title appears on concrete next to him.

 Overall, I think either film opener we decide to make its going to be amazing. Hopefully, Tuesday we are going to pick the idea we are going to create and make the idea a reality this upcoming weekend! I am very excited to see what we end up making.
