Week 2

By now, everyone should have started filming. How is it going? Have you run into any problems? If so, you are you handling them? Remember - the deadline for the progress check has been up to Friday, MARCH 6th (that's this Friday!)

I am having trouble finding time to film the people I need for my video, but I can find time after school or on the weekends. Right now I'm working on captions and music for the beginning of the video.

My filming is going very well so far. I haven't run into very many problems yet, which is pretty good. However, finding good lighting has given me a little bit of trouble (because the school is really dark, in general). I have done a lot of filming outside in the natural light and by big windows so that I can adapt. Also, holding the camera steady has been a challenge, so I have used a little tripod and it seems to have helped somewhat.

It seems to be going pretty well. I'm anticipating a little struggle as I get deeper into the film. Close ups are a but of a hassle and a few struggles involving lighting. But I don't think it's too serious, really. Just a bit frustrating. I haven't gotten my brothers into it yet, but I'm hoping to get them involved soon.

Filming has been pretty well. I haven't had that many problems. I have been filming throughout class, and have not scheduled time to after school, but now that winter sports are over I am available to shoot more footage. Also, we have to bring clothes, so thats hard to remember but it'll work.

Things are going rather well. I am having some trouble finding time to film, but the other parts are doing okay. I have a two sections done, and need to record some music for them. I am getting scheduling problems solved swiftly, though.

Unknown said...

The only problem i am having is that the people I want to be in my video aren't available during class time so we are working out a time during the day where we are all available to shoot. during class i am working on my title page and sound effects so i have something to work on

Unknown said...

Things are going well. I feel kind of creepy when I'm just filming people in the hallway, but that's alright. I've found that people do funny things when they see they're being filmed, so that's been a great addition to my film.

Unknown said...

I am also having the problem of finding the people I need to film in my movie, usaully they have class when I don't and I have practice after school, so I will have to probably do some of the filming on weekends.

I'Am not having much trouble putting my videeo togethor. I have my opening scene and my title. I also have close to my second scene almost finished. So far the video is going well for me I should be done soon and then ready to edit.

Unknown said...

Having problems uploading because i dont have the film with me today and also the quality of filming so fair is poor, mostly because we only have 2 people working on it so we dont have a filmer.

I have started filming and it is going well so far. I have been able to successfully upload things onto the computer and everything in that aspect is working. However, I am running out of people to prank. I am open to any suggestions for people I can prank and it would be greatly appriciated. Overall I think I am on the right track. I am just hoping everything will come together.

Unknown said...

Getting everyones' schedules to mesh has been hard, as well as finding a teacher to be in this, but it's coming along nicely.

Unknown said...

My movies going fine. I'm having some trouble finding enough time because the people who are in my movie don't have any of the same study hall blocks. I have filmed a little bit during M Block. I also had trouble uploading pictures from the video camera and ive tried multiple times using multiple different cameras but I'm just going to use a regular camera. I also had trouble getting the song 'by the sea' onto my computer. At first I tried using my i pod but I had to Sync it or something so I'm just going to burn that one song onto a CD and put it on my computer.
Right now I'm working on getting pictures to introduce whos playing which part

Unknown said...

I had trouble getting an angle that would only film my hands and even when I did, the image easily blured. I'm going to keep the same general idea and topic, but my creative element will not incorporate as much of the reverse effect, but instead the music will be more essential and I will compose it.

Unknown said...

Filming is stupendous. I've almost completed all my scenes, and it has been done with a smile on my face the whole time! Sorry for not posting last week, I'm still beating myself up over it. Untill next post,
Travv

Filming is fine so far. I have had a small problem with lighting while filming in the dungeon. I think the dark will be fine though. I think i am done with all of my filming though, and i just have to add effects and stuff now. I had a small problem transferring my work so far onto smokey. I thought I did it but then someone told me it wasn't there so i am going to try again.

i have finished all my filming and now im just finsishing all he texts and music. the main problems i had wa that my film isnt in widescreen but it doen not matter too much as it hasnt made any difercne to my actors apperance

Unknown said...

I have filmed one singer so far. I need more time to find people to sing for me. I am also having a hard time fitting in all the schedules of the judges, and still need a host. I have uploaded about 30 seconds so far, though.

Ranger said...

I started filming, its going well so far. I still need to find some actors to play the other parts in my trailer but it is going well. I think its going to turn out cheezy though. I still need to film a lot more because it is a trailer. so far so good!

Troy Beneck said...

I started my film and have my footage i just need to do some editing

Troy Beneck said...

i have all of my footage i just need to do some editing

Unknown said...

I have not actualy stated filming, primarily working on the photoshop image of my last scene. Still its going well, casting is completed and things are looking up. Should begin filming on monday, which will be swell.

Unknown said...

Filming is going great. I have gotten a lot of footage done and have finished my first four scenes. The only actual problems I have had are, once again, time. I have come up with an idea though to counter it so it should be moving pretty smoothly from now on.

My first prank got deleted, but we are making a good recovery so far... I've started saved my intro. and I'm prettty proud of the way it turned out.

DougRead said...

I have not run into any problems and everything has been going really well. All my filming is done and it all turned out really well.

Unknown said...

Filming was splendid. I thoroughly enjoyed filming random characters dance and move throughout the school. I had a bit of difficulty with the lighting.

Unknown said...

I am finding it hard to think of a plot for my movie. At first I was just going to do a music video but I didn't seem like it had a point or purpose so I am going to make it more of a story using specific songs.

My filming is going well, I have lots of different clips to choose from. However, I need to cut down on a lot of clips.

I've finished already, but at this time I remember not running into many problems. Now that I'm done though, I spent way too much time filming certain scenes the first couple of days because I didn't know it had to be in as soon as I thought. This made a problem in the long run and I ended up turning my movie in late. I was a bit too meticulous.
