Were finally done!

    I would like to say that we are currently one hundred percent complete with our film opening. It was a very long and tedious process. The idea of going to a womens prison was very scary at first but now that it is done and the editing is done I am happy to say I think our film opening is very good and very scary. I think my group and I have learned a lot during this process. The Imovie editing and the camera work has taught me how to film much better then I use to before. I now know how to edit a short piece and it will help me in the future. The women's prison was an experience. Although i am not personally in the shots the experience of going there was thrilling.
   
   Now I will begin my director analysis of our film opening. This will include the questions that Ms Stoklosa had provided us with and my step by step process on how we came upon ideas and scenes. This part will be much easier then the film itself but we still need to take it very seriously and try our hardest to receive the highest grade possible. The director analysis will actually be very amusing to me and provide me with much amusement because it will flashback great moments of filming this opening. We have showed our opening to some of friends and I showed me father and mother. Everyone gave us positive feedback and said for a first time it was very good. I really believe that we got the job done and for the two minutes we had the point was across. This project was a great experience and I hope everyone enjoys it.
Thanks for following us on this journey!

Added a new scene

  Hey everyone, we decided to add in a new scene that is not one hundred percent going to be in our movie but it has a lot of potential. The scene begins with a closeup of the school bell and it rings. This is to show that we are just ordinary high school kids living normal lives. High school kids tend to get in trouble and do stupid things so were trying to show that we are normal just like everyone else. Then its just a casual conversation as we walk down the hallway and discuss going to the prison we had heard so much about. The prison is a huge thing that has gone around our school and everyone knows that it is not a fun place to go.  

   We are also 90 percent done with the editing process. All we have to do know is possibly add in the scene of the hallway to the beginning of our opening. I have also come across a amazing movie editing app that allows you to add magical things to all your work. The app is called Magisto and this app has done wonders for us. It allowed us to add some of those crazy and weird things that we could not add through imovie and such. Some of the things we added were lighting and some blur in the back round of our shots. This app was named one of the best apps of 2013 as well and has been used by over a million iphone users. The cool thing about magisto is that it takes photos and makes it a movie. So we combined some scenes with photos and then it combined the two to work correctly. The photos that are used can be put in the back round of your movies and such.
