Critical Reflection

-
     My products are about the issues of having to deal with a heartbreak or loss of some sort. Mostly everyone has come to know loss or heartbreak, whether it’s a romantic relationship or even just parental or platonic. Everyone has experienced this pain. My short film helps represent those facing those feelings and how it may look like going through emotions. My short film shows a girl facing heartbreak and going through the 5 stages to help cope through the pain or grief. It may help many feels less alone and feel represented. Each stage of heartbreak can represent the emotional reactions and experience that individuals within social groups or in general may go through as they come to terms with the loss or a challenge at hand. My products can also help represent those dealing with mental illness that sound rare to some, such as depression or anxiety. For example, if an individual is going through a period of depression, they may experience similar emotions and thought patterns as t

Production blog: Editing part two

-
Image
 Now I put in the the heartbreak scene. We are editing the scenes that each of us filmed on our phones. So honestly Nicole is editing most of the film. However, we are still in an argument so I am not really updated on everything. But for my scenes I did a lot. I put in the party scenes with Felipe. I only edited the exposure. Just to make it a little darker and to make it look realistic. Then I added the heartbreak scenes. I only made all the movement and voice to match the different angles. Because we have an over the shoulder and outside and inside shots. Where we say the same things. So we show different angles of the heartbreak. Just to immerse our viewers. Then I also added some of the sound. But I have to make sure my whole group is on the same page. Because not everyone liked the sound that we were using. So I am going to make sure afterwards that everything is good with my group. Just in case, so no arguments are caused again. I am going to keep trying to help my group find a

Production blog: Filming part two

Image
March twelfth was our second day filming. It was great. So we set up the time for 4 o’clock. But we both ended up coming at Nicole’s at 5. Because Nicole was super busy and I was late because I missed Nicoles house exit. Anyways, I got to Nicole’s house. We talked and FaceTimed Macaria before filming. Just so we would all know what is going on. We spoke about how we were going to film the bargaining stage. And maybe extra. So Nicole and I filmed me getting ready for the party. Doing the makeup and hair. Getting changed and looking good. Then we filmed me being disappointed. Afterwards, we were done and just talked for awhile. Nicole and I are really good friends. So it is never really a hassle to go to her house or make conversation. I just come over and talk and hangout. Then, we get to filming. It does take a little longer because we forget to do work. But, we soon ended up getting most of the scenes.

Production blog: filming in three days

 I am so excited that we are finally filming. I have been waiting so long. I also have been very stressed about it recently. I just have a lot going on so I want it over with. Just so I don’t have to stress about it. But it will be at Nicole house. And also no one is able to go. Only me and Nicole will be there. Plus, my sister who is going to film some scenes. But we also have a tripod to do that. I am not worried and I think everything will come out great. We only have the going out scene and acceptance to film. But it’s still a lot. If we don’t finish filming ,we are filming during the week. It may be difficult but it’s going to have to work. But me and Nicole our on good terms. So it’s making it so much easier to set up filming. Also, to just be on the same page. And settle some arguments. But I am so excited to film on Sunday!

Production blog: Worried about filming

-
Image
 My group is not getting their work done. No one wants to get work done. I am very annoyed. I keep trying to ask about filming but no one answers. I am very stressed because I have a lot next week. I am going to get my drivers license. I also have a huge math test next week. It’s also the last test of the quarter. Meaning I might have to study over the whole week. Ensuring that filming during the week is unavailable. And the project is due very soon. I also have to study for my drivers exam. So everything feels very impossible right now. I really need my group to collaborate. And I also need us to work together. Everything is easier when everyone works together. I keep restating this but no one wants to listen. And one of our group members hasn’t done any work. I just do not know what to do. But it is not over. Me and Nicole our trying to work things out. So that is making it easier to speak. And work through the disagreements.

Production blog: Another day of no filming

-
Image
  Today we were set to film. However, my parent were leaving on a cruise today and I didn’t not have anyone to drive me. I also had a club beach clean up. So I wasn’t available at all. And everything came up last minute. Many of my group members were upset. But I could not control it. I had to put these things first. We have many more days to film. Yet, they were very upset. And slow to warmup when I was speaking on the phone. This always happens with my group. No one really does work unless it’s crucial. And that’s the complete opposite of me. I need days of planning and speaking. However, that did not happen. They had planned this one day before and let me know in the morning. It made me extremely upset. I have been trying to have patience with my group but it feels almost impossible. But I know we will get through this. I am going to keep trying to be patient.
