Planning: Ideas and Concerns - Post 20


For my film opening, the new ideas I thought of was to consider casting new people and using different settings. For instance, I can shoot scenes in a car as well as an empty field or park. As for the editing, I would like to hold off on recording till I get my new laptop soon. The newer model I'm purchasing will have more storage and have better programs to make editing easier and accessible. 

A few concerns I have for this project is the global pandemic still at bay. With all the restrictions in place, my scenes would have limited diversity as well as the actors participating. In order to create my opening, I'll need a group of people for some scenes and I'll have to be considerate on everyone's circumstances and situations. Plus, I don't believe I'll be able to record all scenes I need in just one day. If the pandemic and cases become worse later on, it'll become a hindrance to my process, so hopefully it'll become less severe after a certain amount of time.

Failed Attempt - Post 25

  This was my first attempt at making my preliminary video. I recorded this on December 5th, 2020.

Creative Critical Reflection 3 - Post 41

 -  How did your production skills develop throughout this project? CCR 3 - Jadan Cedeno.pptx Throughout this project, for my draft and final film production, I used two different mobile editing apps for my phone. For my draft, I used VivaCut and for my final I used CapCut. I transitioned because I wanted to used an editing app that doesn't include their watermark or logo in the corner throughout the whole film video, so CapCut was the best choice. Due to my past experience editing, using the new app wasn't difficult at all; very simple.  As for my skills, I can see my development when comparing my two film videos. In my draft, I just shot it by the textbook and wasn't very considerate of important factors like setting and props. I directed a film opening that can be considered as criminal/mafia, yet, the settings, props, costumes, and mise en scene in general did not fit the match. It's evident that I only went for the story but not the story-telling. I believe my came
