Film Project

My group and I are starting to go into the pre production stage as we are gathering our actors for our film opening as well as gathering much of the resources we would like to use for our film. One of the main things we have gathered are locations for our film opening as well as some of the actors but we haven't gotten all that we need yet. The things we haven't obtained consist of mainly something to help us with our sound quality we also don't have our full script 100% finished and we don't have printed copies for our actors to begin to memorize. My group is like I said early in the stages of pre production as we have been busy focusing on our sweding project and the production of that project. We plan to make many changes to our script as well as the story and characters just a bit. We want to emphasize the characters personalities and class as well as what they might represent through mise-en-scene. We plan to do this mainly through the characters outfits and their

 For my sweding project my partners and I chose to do two scenes from the movie "SuperBad" a short synopsis of this movie is " Two inseparable best friends navigate the last weeks of high school and are invited to a gigantic house party. Together with their nerdy friend, they spend a long day trying to score enough alcohol to supply the party." My group took two of the most popular scenes from the movie about the fake ID with the name McLovin. We chose these clips as they both are extremely comical and very recognizable. There was many experiences during this film one being filming at "Wings Plus" as our substitute for a convenience store, it was much easier to film there as I have connections with the owner and had previously asked for permission to film at the restaurant for the scene. Doing this got us more realism in our scene as we used and actual beer bottle for the prop as well as we had an actual employee acting in the film as the bartender. I real

My group’s media company was Walt Disney Studios and our smaller production company was Pixar Animation studios. When it came to our media company research we split up the work between everyone and I focused on the origins of Pixar and the major films. When researching Pixar I learned about how it came to be and how it was founded. I also learned that it started as a hardware company called the graphics group, but the venture was unsuccessful so they started to create CGI animation. Pixar first started out by doing commercials for other companies but ever since their first release of a full animated film being Toy Story they focused on many different films.                                           This is a photo from an old Pixar                                                  advertisement for Coca-Cola.  This is the poster for Toy Story which was Pixar's fist animated film and was a humongous hit. Although the work was split up I still did learn about Walt Disney Studios and h

 We've started writing our script and have taken a considerable turn with our vision. Our film initially was going to be an action movie but we realized we were going overboard. My partners and I discussed and decided to change the idea to a comedy film which we were more familiar with. We are happy with this change as it leads to more ideas from everyone to work on as we are not as limited with what we do. The general idea of our new film "Fools Show" is about three teenagers "Max", "Treyvon", and "Brendon" these characters all live in different t kinds of households and we want to show how their home life influence the characters in the real world. These characters are all best friends and are all obsessed with the idea of becoming famous online through doing stunts or pranks to gain their views. This idea is influenced by the"jackass" series and the film "Project X". Project X is a movie about these lame kids becoming e
