CAP Hollywood Reflection #3

This is a post for school, and thus, if you don't care, don't read. Also, it's the last one

1) Our film is pretty good at this point. I need to incorporate the remaining footage that we have, and smooth out all of the edits. also do some color grading if possible. But even though I have all of this stuff left to do, it is looking pretty good by itself right now.
Challenges: Some of the edits are bad and a bit jarring. Also, the audio is peaking. And finally we have our footage, but I only have a week to turn it from a rough cut to a final cut.
Successes: We finally have all of our footage.
Concerns: I am getting a little concerned about the time, but I am not in crunch time yet. If I spread the work out, it should be no problem.

2) What I did this week for my film:

• Edited at my house, worked on audio, credits
• Filmed our last scene with Zoe

3) Goals for the following week:

• Incorporate the last of our footage
• Edit the final cut
• Credits

CAP Hollywood Reflection #2

This is a post for school, and thus, if you don't care, don't read.

First off, sorry this is late, I was sick over the weekend.

1) Our film is pretty good in my opinion. I would have liked my own camera work to be better, and some of the edits I have in the rough cut are a bit jarring. But all in all it is looking pretty good. I am still confident that I will be able to get it done on time.
Challenges: Again, I thought that some of the edits I made were a bit jarring, also, the audio is basically all peaked.
Successes: Ive been testing out stabilization and some film burn effects, they all look pretty sweet.
Concerns: I have no concerns with getting the project done, but I do have a concern with it looking the best it possibly can. I am working my hardest to smooth out those jumpy edits I mentioned beforehand.

2) What I did this week for my film:

• Edited a lot
• I would like to say other things but that was really it. Our group pretty much has everything else done.

3) Goals for the following week:

• Polish the rough cut
• Film the last 15 second scene

CAP Hollywood Weekly Reflection

This is a post for school, and thus, if you don't care, don't read.

1) At this point in filming CAP Hollywood our group has shot 98% of our footage (we only have one more 20 second scene to shoot), and we have sone some preliminary editing. I feel like our footage that we have gotten is absolutely awesome and I think that we will be able to produce an awesome film.
Challenges: Some discontinuities in clothing, but with proper framing, I could get around it.
Successes: Again, awesome footage.
Concerns: This is going to be a tight week with 2 unite tests and the AP test coming up. Its going to be stressful for sure.

2) What I did this week for filming:

• Got all of the camera equipment
• Filmed everything
• Directed a bit on set
• Used our house for a location
• Gave up one of my precious bananas to one of the actors

3) Goals for the following week:

• Start editing and assemble a rough cut
• Find a date to shoot the last scene, shoot it.
• Get all of my homework done and get back on top of my life.

That's it.
