Week 4 (Filming)

 This week, I started to figure out the lighting situation for the very first part of my opening scene. I was finding windows around the house for an extreme close-up every morning and found a good situation in one of the bedrooms. This is the result of it. 


This is just a test photo to determine the lighting situation. 

I also spent this week researching how to edit something Into a mirror to accomplish my goal of the demon in the mirror.

Classmate's Camera Shots

Aniya Jefferson: The three shots I chose to comment on her blog were the extreme close-up, the tilt shot, and the low angle shot. 1. Extreme Close-up: This shot she took grasped the concept of an actual extreme close-up very well and I could feel the awkwardness and anxiety of the shot because it fixated so close for so long. 2. Tilt: This shot was a shot that made me feel very minute and small in comparison to the tree. She was able to emphasize the tree's height, which also made her seem very small in comparison.  3.

From there, a cutaway shot from the long, establishing shot of San Junipero to the front of the club called Tucker's that extends into a panning shot that follows the car full of college-age students in front of the diner that really emphasizes the feeling of a buzzing night life that sparks interest of the audience. The next camera shot, which cuts from the outside of the diner, to a close-up of the woman walking down the city strip and stopping in front of the television shop, develops a sense of curiosity and confusion that almost accentuates innocence in a way. The next moment, which is an over-the-shoulder shot from behind the woman, facing Tucker's, creates an enveloping moment where the audience can feel the woman bracing herself to reluctan...

Movie opener First Cut

 This filming experience has been a wild ride thus far. The first concept I had in mind did not work out for me, as I was to use a mirror in the hallway that wound up falling off the wall and breaking, and that happened to a second mirror. Then I unfortunately lost a large chunk of my opener, which was strange. Therefore, here I have a drafted concept of what I will most definitely polish up over Spring Break and will add sounds to as well to tie into my original idea.
