Getting my costume and makeup ready for film

 Today, I started to film some of the shots for our project. Because I am supposed to be dead, there is not much filming that I will need to do. Before I filmed I had to get my costume and makeup ready. My costume is going to be a ripped up t-shirt that is dirty, with most likely shorts. My group member Kaitlyn ended up finding a shirt that she ripped up, and it turned out good. After I got my costume put together, I wanted to focus on makeup. Since I am dead, I looked up "dead looking makeup."It came up with a lot of good ideas. Most of the looks included pale makeup, with very dark eye "bags" and defined facial structures such as cheekbones or collarbones. Since I am not very good at doing makeup, I wanted to practice doing different looks to see which ones I liked the best, and to get some practice. Luckily, since I'm dead, it doesn't have to look perfect. For my hair, I decided that I will probably wear it down, but will make it look very knotty. I looked up some inspiration, and a lot of the pictures had their hair look very fizzy and dirty. Some of them even made their hair look gray. The scenes that I needed to be filmed where going to include my other group members. Unfortunately, they where unable to meet to film, so I decided to use this day as a practice day. I sent my group member a picture of the final costume and makeup look to make sure everything that I was doing was what they wanted as well. Both of my group members said that it looked good. Hopefully I will be able to film my scene soon, and then I can help Sofia and Kaitlyn out if they need any parts filmed. Since Kaitlyn and Sofia live much closer to each other than I do, they will be able to get much more of the filming done. This will definitely help our group since we all have busy schedule. It will make this project be much more manageable and easier to get done.

  How do your products represent social groups or issues? Our short film focuses on some of the troubles that highschoolers go through. In this case, the new girl, Macie, attends, once again, another new school. Being “the new kid” is already hard enough, but to make it even harder on Macie, Courtney makes her first couple of days at school even more difficult. Courtney gets jealous that her crush, Jacob, likes Macie more then her. This causes her to send out an embarrassing photo of Macie to the whole school, in hopes to get Jacob to lose interest in Macie. However, this makes Jacob see what kind of a person Courtney truly is. Courtney decides that she must apologize and make up for what she’s done to Macie. The short film captures some of the emotions that many teens and highschoolers often go through. Whether it be anxiety, jealousy, or embarrassment, my short film is able to capture all the feelings that the characters go through. This helps to represent how highschoolers are v...

Production Blog: filming my scene

Image
 Today, I am going to be filming the scenes with only me in them. Julie came over after school to help me film some of the parts. When I got home, I went to go change into my clothes for the scenes. I was wearing a bright pink top with jeans. we started off with me walking through the door of my house. I went outside the door and Julie filmed me walking in. During this scene, it was only me so you I didn't have much dialogue. Julie and I filmed the rest of the shots that I need for the scene by myself. Since I didn't have much dialogue, I had to make sure that my facial expressions where good so that the audience could still have an idea about what was going on in the scene. Filming these scenes weren't too hard. I would say the toughest part of this process was getting the right angle. We also had to figure out how we can make the embarassing photo look like it was found on a website or something similar so it looks realistic. This took a couple ,minutes to figure out, but...
