IT'S A WRAP!!!

So we stayed til 10pm last night and 10pm tonight but i'm glad to say that it is officially finished.
Naysan, Lisa and I saved it onto the hard-drive and we are handing it in tomorrow. The past two days we did most of the serious editing, doing the colour correction, correcting the sound levels, adding transitions, credits etc. We are quite happy with the end result and I can't wait til the screening.
This production was extremely fun to do. It isn't often I say that about an assignment.
I was glad to meet the people in my group.


Cons:
Not all our group participated equally.
That's about it. Can't wait til Screen Production 2!

Uploaded

Today we uploaded our footage to computer. Which was horrible because it took so long.
Couldn't get anything else done by the time it was finished.

Uni Bar Scenes

Today we finished filming.
It was the uni bar scenes so they were pretty hard to film.
We had to wait til 10am for the bar to open, then the moment it did open, Fiona unfortunately had to leave. So we didn't have enough people to help us film/be in the film so it took us a while to make some calls but we sorted it out. The main problem was the sound. You couldn't hear anything except the background music and people.
What we did was got the wireless microphones and put the receiver on the table so it would pick up their voices as they were sitting around the table talking.
This worked really well and we were proud of the idea.
This finished filming and we were glad that it was out of the way

FILMING TIME


The past two days we filmed. I have to admit that it was pretty fun. We used Naysan's house and his housemates volunteered as actors for our film.
The most annoying thing I reckon was doing white balance. I hated it.
Yesterday we decided to have a break so we lay down on a couch. We all literally fell asleep and I was surprised that filming could take so much out of us.
Vu, Lisa and I did a lot of the filming as Naysan sort of directed the actors what to do, as he was the main character in the film. We all took in turns to hold the boom mic which I didn't like at all.

Pre-production done and DONE

We finished pre-production today.
After Naysan and Lisa did the rough of the script on the weekend, we went over it and made some minor changes here and there. Nothing major.
I then worked on the stuff like what props we would need etc.
Lisa, Naysan and I then did the shot list, which was frustrating, simply because it is easy to screw up a table, and we did this many times.
Once post-production was done, we had a drink at uni bar before heading off to mid-semester break.
