Research: How to make a short film

  When analyzing the video "How to Make a Short Film", I managed to take a few valuable notes on what could be implemented into my own short film in the future. Immediately, casting was brought up. Ryan explained that casting is important because your actors need to take their roles seriously in order to "sell the moment" to the audience. I found this to be a very interesting point because when writing the script, each character needs to have their own respective strengths and weaknesses. This should correlate to each actor's strengths and weaknesses in order for the acting to look more natural. Through my own short film, I believe getting to know each of my actors better will help me find out these specialties. My crew likely will not all be able to be on set so the main focus will be on the actors.     Considering logistics in production, there must be a certain degree of comfort for the actors when on set. Ryan makes the point that you should feed your ...

Looking back on it all

  Hello, my loyal listeners! I’m back again, reflecting on the wild ride that was our filming process. It’s crazy to think how far we’ve come, from gathering costumes to finally wrapping up the last scene. Filming wasn’t always easy, but every challenge brought us closer together as a team.

 Hello my loyal listeners! I am here to discuss our plans for filming with you. Jaydon has been a great help when gathering costumes and items for our set. This will be a World War 2 film, meaning that there needs to be some authenticity folks. We can not have random high schoolers running around in our normal clothes. Lucky Jaydon has a secret weapon. His really good friend who has signed up to be an actor for us, Camilo has a bunch of World War 2 costumes. We have soldier gear for Germany, America, and Spain. We have fitted it out and it fits me perfectly, as I will be playing two characters, one dead man with a pancho and the other a German comrade whose fate takes a wild turn. No spoilers ofc for all you true movie watchers who skipped the script part!. The costumes must look authentic, as that is a major component in all war films, they have realistic props and costumes. We are probably going to have to use fake blood as it is a war zone, so again, another goal is to make sure...
