Costume Blog

Since I'm the main actress my costumes really needed to exemplify my character. All of the clothes I wore in this short film were very comfy. Although they were not put together and were kind of messy. I wanted to give a very lazy and unproductive look. I'm very depressed in my film so I needed to emphasize how I've given up. The main character's costumes consisted of hoodies, sweat pants, baggy shirts and lounge wear. Most of the settings where I'm acting in will take place in my house. The only times you don't see her wearing those specific outfits will be during one of the bathroom scenes. This is where we want me to wear a tank top. This is so you can see the fake bruising all down my arm while I take my prescription pills. My friend Sonali who will be playing the nurse, will be wearing scrubs. My mom is going to always be in the house as well, but she looks more put together. She'll just be wearing lounge wear. Mr. Evans and Alexander Cabrera will be wearing the FLHS EMS uniforms. This is during the ambulance scene. They fit the characters perfectly. My friend Diego who will be playing the drug dealer, will be wearing a wife-beater and beanie. We felt as though this outfit would really play well into that specific role. We don't know if we'll be showing his pants yet, but if we are we'll probably make him wear sweatpants.

Music Video Intro blog

 For my music video project, I've decided on working with a partner. The person I have chosen to work with is Alexa Delgado. I've worked with her on previous projects before this one. Even on the projects that we were supposed to work individually, she'd always offer to help with anything I needed. We've known each other since kindergarten, and I believe this is the main determinant of why we work so well together. We also already see each other on a daily basis because we live so close together. She is one of my best friends, and we really understand each other, so we tend to have a lot of things in common. Like for example, our taste in music. Alexa brought up the idea of choosing the song violent crimes by Kanye West, which we then concluded as the song for our project pretty quickly. Our video is going to portray the deeper meaning of this song. Kanye was basically talking about the uneasiness of his daughters growing up. The underlying message of what girls have to...

Filming Blog: Volleyball gym

On Sunday the 25th of October I went over to my friend's house so that we can prepare to film at a park near her house. While waiting in the house it started to rain. I then decided to reschedule filming later on in that week because I had other factors that ended up making me decided that I would now need to film indoors in a gym. Because I had volleyball practice, the only day I could film were the 29th and 30th of October after practice. I had to ask my coach prior to filming if it was okay. While filming I had my main actress named Amelia who was willing to do whatever I told her I needed, which was extremely helpful. In the opening scene, I really wanted to start off by emphasizing the intensity of the commercial to come. I did this by doing a tilt shot from her shoes to her face. Then an establishing shot of where she was which was a high school gym. Since the commercial is advertising Gatorade I really wanted to exemplify the highs and lows of training for a sport such as vo...
