Group Blog - FT


 Hey blog, I will be working on this project with my partner Kevin. Kevin is a very good friend of mine and we had already worked on quite a few projects together in before in the past. Me and Kevin are currently choosing to work with anyone else simply because we have learned in the past that the more people that are involved in a project the more that can go wrong. For instance there were quite a few times that due to scheduling issues footage for projects couldn't be shared on time. Instances also occurred where group members couldn't make it to shooting locations on the dates we had scheduled. With just 2 people working on this project there are essentially much fewer moving parts that can fail and cause setbacks. Also as stated before, me and Kevin have worked on projects together. because of this I'm much more used to working with him and we have a much better sense of each others work ethic and skills. He is also a close friend so naturally we work well together. Kevin will most likely do much of the acting and submission work. I will most likely do much of the camera work as well as be in charge of the editing process. When it comes to the actual concept, design, and planning of the project both e and Kevin will discuss these aspects. The music and sound design will likely be more in Kevin's hands. He had chose the sound design for the last 2 projects and I trust his decisions. I will likely do majority of the writing however, I have always been a strong writer and I am typically better with words. Costume design will likely be both me and Kevin considering this project will be unlike the previous ones as in this one the characters are not us. Or at least us in personality. Me and Kevin will both do research on the various aspects needed for our project. All in all I chose to work with Kevin for a few reasons mainly because we had already worked together on projects in the past. I really think we work well together and I think he's the best choice for getting this project done on time and of quality.

 Hey Blog. I've been working up ideas for my commercial and I actually started gathering some footage. I really love exercise and especially going to the gym and I figured that the best course was to gather new footage instead of using old ones simply because the quality would be much better and my strength and technique has changed drastically. But I think I might add some old videos to compare to now so I have something intriguing for my audience showing my growth and progress. A few days ago I went to the gym with some friends of mine to gather some footage but we didn't end up gathering much it was our first time lifting together in a while and to be honest we got side tracked. Afterwards wasn't exactly productive either we went to this 7/11 down the street and got slushies and candy, so not exactly the ideal things to eat after a workout session. We planned on getting some footage on the beach because we were playing volleyball and sports are a large part of fitness an...

Production Blog: Planning, gathering footage for the first few scenes

 Hey blog. This week I will start to gather footage for me and my teammates music video. This week I'm really going to focus on gathering footage for the first few scenes. The first scenes are split between the three of us. I need a sequence of me waking up early, preparing myself breakfast or a protein shake. I also need footage of me going for a morning jog. The overall plan isn't over complicated but the only issue is the time of day we want to shoot. We all agree that the dark of the night or early morning really fits the theme perfectly. In our video we are trying to translate the mindset of fitness and exercise. The mentality you need to be great. The music and the dark along with the message we're trying to convey. The mentality it takes has a certain intensity. It's almost as if there's a weight in your mind and you feel this drive to push yourself. It's a dark and sort of intense mindset but it is liberating at the same time. The issue with this and the...
