Editing Blog

To start off there were a few ups and downs when editing this film. After we got done with the music video which took place at my house we went back inside and we started editing. We edited this film on Liliana's computer so we didn't have to do it on two. It's better to just edited everything on one computer makes it faster. Editing this film didn't take too long but we didn't do it that fast either. Liliana's part of the editing was to do the transitions and I was in charge of the song. Liliana's part wasn't as hard as mine and let me explain. When you work with a song that could be copy write along with it, it took me some time to find the song. What I mean by this is I thought it was as easy as putting the song for my commercial film into the that project but it was harder. When doing the last project, I made sure it wasn't a copy write song so it was easy to find it. But, for this song it took some time and it took me a while. One of the options that I did was signing into my apple music on her MacBook and hoping we can download the song off of there since I pay for it. Turns out it didn't work so I started searching on google for the song. This was a long process of searching and it was honestly stressful because I thought I was never going to find it. I even told her "don't worry leave the song to me I got this". And no, I didn't have it I was sitting there for a while looking at ways and websites that could have it. Most of them you had to buy or add extensions to your chrome browser and even after I added the extensions it was going to make me pay. Other websites downloaded the song but not the audio, it downloaded their version of the music video and we weren't able to use that. After some time, I finally figured out how to get it and I was so happy because we could finally finish the project. After finishing the project Liliana posted the music video on YouTube and then she went home.

Genre Research: Thriller

Thrillers will use any film aspect that emphasizes the suspense or excitement of the film. Some camera angles used in Thrillers are close-ups: which are typically used to show a character’s expression or reaction to an event, point of view shots: which engages the audience in the scene by putting them in the character’s position, high angles: which could symbolize looking down on a character in thrillers, and the opposite, low angles: which could portray the character as someone more powerful of superior. High Angle Low Angle Camera movements commonly noticed in thrillers include tracking, pans, and tilts. Tracking is used to build suspense. The camera follows a moving object or character and allows the audience to anticipate what the scene is leading to. Pans can be used to show a comparison between two or more characters, or just to show the scene’s setting more. Tilts are also used to showcase a setting, scene, or character. Tilts sometimes focus of one subject, and the camera moves...

Today we final met up again to add some final touches to the film. Not going to lie, longest drive of my life. Actually i might have driven more. Either way that was a long ride but you already know I had music so it wasn't to bad. Even though that's gas money which isn't cheap if you use your car a lot. That made me realizes things. I should've just stayed home lmao. No I'm just kidding they needed me there. Wouldn't want to disappoint them when we needed to see each other one last time. I'm use to long car rides but when you're in the car alone it gets boring even when you have the music blasting. But loud music does wake you up so I never fall asleep even when I go to work early in the morning. Music is life and I love music. I should up around 3:30 nothing to crazy. I left my sister with my mom since she came home early because I told her I was going somewhere. We had to finish editing but it all turned out fine. So there was a problem uploading the ...

Sadly notice again we haven't been able to meet up this week. I sound like I'm making so many excuses and I hate it. You guys are tired of me talk about not being able to film all the time. I've only had one blog that was actually about filming so you can probably see how little free time we have in order to film. I also just remembered I have to go put gas in my car in order for me to take that longggg drive to Isabel's house in order to film. I'm happy at the moment though because tomorrow is my birthday so i'm excited about that. I asked for a book for my birthday from Warren Buffet. He's one of the wealthiest people in the world and I really want to become something big in the future. I want to get out of my 9-5 and be financially free and help others out. How great it would be to get my parents out of there jobs. My group is busy again like usual this week but I mean so am I. Isabel has games and practices like usual and I want to spend the weekend with...
