A Final Goobye!

Hi!

These five weeks have been annoying I must admit but I definitely learned something from this project and that's time management. I tend to be a procrastinator procrastinator and leave everything till the last minute. With this project you definitely can not do that. The weekly blogs ensured I was staying on task . I also learned about the importance of doing it right. I had to redo some shots a few times because it just didn't look right. As a wise man once said Do it right or Do it again!

Sounds!

Hello!

Before I finish this project I must sound into my short film. I searched google for the best royalty free sites and found one called Danosongs.com. I browsed the sight and played various songs and ended up finding one I liked. I was looking for a nice smooth jazz song. The song is called Remember the Stars-Jazz. I put this at the end of my film with the dog running gracefully in the field. The sweet music just really fits and helps portray the peacefulness and clarity of the final scene.

This is website, it's very useful and even comes with instructions As you can see.

Almost Over!

Editing!

Good evening! Today I finished completely filming so now I am tasked with the process of editing all my clips and putting them together. I was lost at first on how to edit so I searched google for the best editing apps. I found an app called SPLICE which is partnered with GoPro that allows you to edit with ease. The app is completely free.

Here is what it looks like on the App Store

Filming Day!

Today is the big day, all the hard work has been finished and now I can begin filming. I began filming yesterday and finished some shots today. I have many different shots in my film which really work well. I'm loving the shots I've been seeing. Many close ups and POV shots. Also I found an app called Action movie FX that lets you create a surplus of special effects. Also the filming location of the dog running on the track has changed to an open field because some people are scared of big dogs.

Here is an action shot from filming today.

This is the Action Movie Fx app.
