Production blog: filming

 We started filming! We were going to go to this plaza in Diana Point, but the place we were going was closed. So we went to this other plaza we knew to film. We shot scenes in the car with someone record while I was driving. We also shot scenes outside the car with someone on top. I loved the scene where my friend is out the window. After, we went to Chick-fil-A to film more scenes. We had to film at Chick-fil-A due to the ice cream place we were going to go to being closed. We went earlier in the day to film. It made sense why they were closed. Even though we didn't go to the place we planned, everything still worked out fine. We ate and had fun. After we finished filming, we also hung out. We went to my house to hang out for a little. We had lots of fun there too. We finished filming in about 2 hours. I thought filming would take longer. Since we had extra time that's why we decided to chill after. We still have one more film day to go. Even though everything didn't go as planned we still made it work. Hopefully, it goes as smoothly as this one did!

Because Tyler, the Creator, is such a well-known artist, my initial assumption was that I could base our music video on his general themes. Tyler has a very unique way of producing music videos with surprising outfits and outlandish setups. For example, in the music video “See You Again” Tyler has a set on a naval ship and a small boat at sea, so the idea of trying to make our video similar to Tyler’s music videos was abandoned. That would ultimately be unattainable for my group. We didn't have any money to spend on costumes, sets, or activities. This is why we decided to focus on the fundamentals of our relationships. Friendship. Rather than creating a video about money,...

Reviewer #1 The first reviewer praised the foreshadowing at the start of the sequence, when the kidnapper is visible in the distance behind Jasmine. She also enjoyed the scenario with the empty swing, which led to the kidnapping. However, she admitted that she didn't really get the concept of Jasmine's revenge in the last scene. I believe this is due to our decision not to have Imani hold a knife in that scenario for safety reasons. I don't think we'll solve it, but we'll compensate with voiceover.  Reviewer #2 The second reviewer said they enjoyed the entire movie. They did not suggest any specific improvements. However, they noted that the second part of the sequence appeared to be a little off. They said it was more unprofessional than the first. Reviewer #3 The third critic stated that they loved the actors' facial expressions. They did express a desire to hear additional diegetic sound throughout the sequence to break up the music played. They believed that...
