filming process

 During filming throughout the past 2 weeks, my team definitely faced a lot of challenges, and we had to come up with many solutions and compromises. In the beginning, we went to the Zen room of our school to film a hospital scene and we weren't able to get the section of the room we were planning on so we had to compromise with a different section and use the materials available in the room to use as hospital equipment" with yoga mats and sheets and a computer stand as a table for all the doctor's tools. When filming our scene for the first time, we encountered many issues such as gloves and masks breaking. In addition, we had trouble with lighting, having to find different ways to get the lighting we planned on to capture the mood and tone of the scene that we intended. We had to prop one of our teammate's phones on a wall and use other phone flashlights to get better lighting and it ended up not working well. And while trying to move to see what we were filming we bumped into the wall and our teammate's phone fell and broke. Something we didn't intend to happen, but he was able to fix it and the next week we came up with a better plan. We came with more supplies in case stuff broke and with a planner of what each scene should look like to make better shots. All the time we had to make our scene was put to use and we were effective at correcting our mistakes and taking better shots.

Peer review

 https://youtu.be/CEkDC6U4KYU?si=Ziw6ViRZCos_m_7L In the opening above I particularly enjoyed the insert shots between the emails. I didn't like the ending, the sudden stop and no real emotion conveyed on the characters face felt off not really making me want to know what happens further. The mis en scene of the opener also didn't feel right. nothing seemed confusing the opener was straight forward and easy to understand. I suggest to make the movie opener better they should make the lighting a little bit darker in the therapy room and change up the ending a little to make the therapist seem a little bit more emotion regarding the girls case.  https://youtu.be/eX32iRuSMvc In the opening film above I liked the subtle music playing in the background it helped me understand the genre of the movie. I didn't really like the lack of depth with the characters especially since its romance genre I would've liked more dialogue. I wasn't really interested in the rest of the mo...

peer review evaluation

This week, my group went over the peer reviews written by our classmates to asses their feedback and determine if there are any suggestions we'd like to implement into our final cut.  Peer review #1 (by Johansen Rey) :https://johansenrey.blogspot.com/2025/04/title-sequence.html  My favorite part of this opening sequence is definitely the ending and the editing done while the surgeon rips his face mask. It reveals a man who is clearly disturbed and this is also accomplished by the tilt shot that shows the blood squirting on him. The editing was great and the grey filter on the actor makes him look psychotic. I didn’t really like the lighting, it was very bright but I believe that the lighting should’ve been a bit darker. If the film had included some lowkey lighting to help add to the ominous atmosphere of the scene, it would have been better. The setting would have also been a bit more unsettling and worrisome for the audience. I do think it looked like an opening sequence as ...
