So today in class we had our second group meeting!
First, Anabella told us about how her project was going and told us how she filmed with her dad and one of her friends. Her biggest obstacle was that she needed to film with her friends dog and he would not cooperate. She said it took them about 1 hour to film 3 shots. She also walked us through some of her mise en scene elements like the construction of her beer bottles which were actually just sparkling water bottles with a new label on it. She told us that she was finishing up the editing process and is currently writing her script for the CCR.
Kailen decided to use an actual camera which she wasn't very sure how to operate and it wasn't until after she finished filming that she realized that she hadn't recorded half of her clips. This was a pretty big issue but I think she was able to re-film them so it ended up working our fine. Another issue was that she only had one actor when first started filming and she did need a couple more.
Adil has everything on the right track from what I heard, the only really big issue is that he needs to find time for him and his partner to film. However, he is combatting this issue by writing the script for the CCR and filming some of that in the meantime until he and his partner can find a time they can film together.
Aneesh said that his story just doesn't really add up and even though he does have his entire project filmed, it doesn't have the effect that he wanted it to have. We all pitched in some ideas to give the story a darker tone but it is a stalker kind of story and one of the only rules for the project was that we couldn't do a stalker film. I'm not sure if he is going to keep going with the story he initially had, or if he is going to change up his plot.
I didn't really get much feedback since I already have all of my filming done and overall i'm pretty happy with it. However, they did give me some ideas for what I could do for my CCR. I'm thinking I could do a documentary style exploring the set of my film while answering questions. I'm still unsure for my other CCR, but I might do a classic interview style with some unique mise en scene elements integrated so that it will be visually interesting for the viewer.
