production blog: musical score

for the end credidts of our film, we needed public domain music. the music needed to sound scary or mysterious. i couldnt find anything that i liked or fit the theme. i decided play around on my piano. since it is an electric piano, i was able to immitate an organ sound. this allowed me to come up with a creepy score. the chords were a c#, f#maj and g. it was a simple progression that i came up with. the same pattern went from low to high. since it was an origional work be me, we dont need to contact anyone. there is no copyrigh that needs to be dealt with. i sent a copy of the music to the group chat, and everyone liked it. we plan to play it behind the end credits, after the talking scenes are done. this saturday, we are starting the filming process at my house. everyone will get here around 12:15, but i will pick celine up from her house at 11:00am because she dosent have a ride. once everyone is here, we will film the scenes that take place at my house. if we have time we will go to the park and film the outdoor scenes. once we finish all the filming the group will edit and complete the video. until then, the group is working on figuring out details for the film date. they are also gathering props for the scenes that require it.

Thriller- The Suspense is Killing Us!

The thriller is the suspense without the gore, the scares without the disturbing visuals (Midsommar (2019) this is directed entirely at you), and the creep factor with the fact that you can probably still sleep after.

This can be achieved with the help of some trademarked jump scares, but any good cinematographer knows that uncomfortable camera angles and shots are the way to go. Putting the audience in a position that they cannot escape from, much like the subject themselves is probably one of the most effecti...

for our last day of filming, on march 27th, the group had to refilm a scene at the park. this was because the day we filmed it, it was too windy. you couldnt hear the audio. everyone met at my house again, and i drove us to the park location when we got there, we shot the nessisary clip. after that, we got distractes and we played on the playground because we had extra time. there was also a beach at the park, so we went and put our feet in the water but me and michael fell in trying to catch a ball. because we were in out fimling clothes, we had to immediatly leave and drive home. once we got home, me and micheal had to change into dry clothes and quickly dry out filming clothes. this took about 45 minutes, so in the mean time we had lunch. once the clothes were dry, the group was able to film the scenes that we didnt get to the last day of filming. this included me sabrina having to put fake blood on micheal again, and me and celine doing his makeup. once this was done, i had to do m...
