FINISHED!!!

We finished filming and everything!! YAY!!! I have to admit that our movie isn’t the best though. AND, it’s really really short. It was supposed to be like 30 minutes but it was only 10.
We learned that making movies needs to have a lot of ideas. Or your movie will be really short!! Like ours. Even thought we spent a lot of time in it.
I learned that I am a pretty good actress. At least I think so. And we’ve practiced singing together for our next project and we sound pretty good.
Next we are going to practice some songs that we are going to do. We are going to do Mistletoe. We have all the parts done.
By next week, I hope we will all be ready to do our cover. I also want to be able to take the band picture you know?
Our accomplishments of the movie took really long. Now I see why The Sea of Monsters took a year to make. I thought it would only take like 3 months. Silly me.
Sometimes we couldn’t all film. Like sometimes Teresa had to work on her poster. Or Nanako wanted to study for the test. And also Connie isn’t in our A Block. We just filmed the parts that we can film. And when we couldn’t film film anything we changed the dialogue a little and also edited some things together. And also add some music.
We communicated really well. I sent a lot of emails telling our group what we are going to do. Like the plan for the week. I also made a chat group and a group on Facebook. We have a Google Doc with all the information.

Almost Done!

We learned that making movies needs a lot of practice and planning. Youγ€€have to remember the script! Or at least what’s happening. We have finished filming a LOT of parts. Everything except for the plan on Tammy. Which we are going to film on Monday recess (11/18) We plan to do some of the recording at school and some at home. Because the school is rarely ever quiet. And I want to refilm the plan in action on Rebecca. The ending part of it. I want to get all the filming done by Tuesday. Then we have to record our voices because the background noise is really loud and we can’t hear anything. I think we’ll be done in 1 or 2 weeks. Then we can start on covers!!! The filming took a while because we had to set things up, look at the script and get to our positions. We communicated really well. We emailed, chatted, and reminded each other what to do and the scripts. It was mostly me doing the reminding. πŸ˜€

FF-DA CHARACTERS

We haven’t started filming yet. But decided that the shy girl’s name will be Rebecca La Rue. She will be played by me, Claire. Β The mean girls will me Nanako and Teresa. Their names will be Kate Lorraine and Mackenzie Everdeen. The boy’s name will be Travis Valdez. It will be played by Claire with a picture on her face. The picture will either be Niall Horan or Louis Tomlinson. I will be the editor. Rebecca’s best friend will be played by Connie. Her name in the movie will be Tammy Santiago. Kate and Mackenzie are friends but fight a lot. Travis is good at everything. And he has a brother named Connor. So in the end Travis will like Rebecca instead of Kate and Mackenzie. Like Cinderella. I want Tammy to like Connor. Connor will be played be me again with a picture of either Louis or Niall on my face.

What the Project Will Be About

For my topic I’ve decided to focus on making a short movie. Before we we’re going to do a song but decided that it was kind of hard. We’ve decided that the movie is going to be 30 minutes and it’s about two girls fighting over a guy and there is one shy girl and then the boy falls for that girl instead of the other two and yeah, like Another Cinderella Story.

This topic is important to me because I really like making videos and I was the one who suggested this.

I hope to learn about movie making, and stuff famous actors and actresses. Like what movies they played in.

I will know when we succeed when we don’t look nervous or look like we’re acting and we remember what to say.

We have already accomplished what the movie is going to be about. It is going to be about LOVE and you know.
