 Hi it's Xena!

This week we are working on editing and deciding weather we have to reshoot certain shot or not.

We are using the editing progress to create a coherent meaning of our collected shots by using different sounds and transitions to try and stick with transition as much as possible. 

During this process we viewed other opening scenes in the same genre. We used this as research to see which transitions were as close to convention as we could possibly get. 

The conventions of our opening title was the color pallet which mostly consisted of red, black, and muted colors. We also used suspenseful sounds and our editing consisted of transitions that dip into black. We used these transitions because they were the most popular compared to the others when it came to our genre. We added the suspenseful music using the editing website that we were using, wevideo.com . 

Here are couple of our shots:

 Hey it's Xena!

For the past 2 weeks, we've been working on FILMING! The technology that we have been using while filming is a phone. Using a phone makes it easier to move around, especially when we have to move from a plethora of different locations: the park or around the school. 

While filming I learned that the different cameras have different qualities. Since everyone had a different type of phone, we had to make sure that in every shot we used the same phone. I also learned that when we did shots outside they had to be during the same time. Along with the type of clothing we had to wear in every shot. 

Here are some video and picture of certain shots:

We did encounter some difficulties along the way most of those being when we would film and where. Other  problems were not being able to keep a straight face. While filming we were constantly laugh and making jokes.

we did change camera angles a few times but besides that everything stayed the same.
