Cinematography For the first time since our first short film in the Making Short Films 1 module of the first semester, I fulfilled the role of the cinematographer. This was a pleasant change for me in comparison to the roles in the other weeks. While sound design and editing have their perks, I quickly feltContinue reading “Week 5, Tayjib”

Week 5, Korneliusz
This week was very interesting. We already had a pretty well formed idea before the Friday lecture but after that I think it got even better. We already wanted to make the sound be the focus and now we could do it in a way to transform and further layer the story. On the locationContinue reading “Week 5, Korneliusz”
Weeks 2& 3, Aaron Lyttle
FILMS: Desperate Measures & Highly Recommended. ROLES: Acting. Ah yes, the beginning of something beautiful. This was the first time we had been in a group together and it was really an experiment of getting used to each other while at the same time getting to know each others personalities and quirks during our firstContinue reading “Weeks 2& 3, Aaron Lyttle”

Sound Design It was a lot of fun getting off Campus this week to film our Soundscape adventure sequence ‘The Disturbance.’ We went to the location earlier in the week to brainstorm together and think about what types of things could happen in the place. Our location was the Ystwyth Trail near Llanilar. We hadContinue reading “Week 5: Juliette”
Week 4, Korneliusz

This time we filmed in a studio, first time inContinue reading “Week 4, Korneliusz”
Week 3, Korneliusz

I tried thinking outside ofContinue reading “Week 3, Korneliusz”
Week 2, Korneliusz
As a sound person I didn’t have much to be worried about, I just kind of pointed the boom at sound sources, grabbed some additional swooshes, cracks and hits, and was done, the most memorable things were getting tangled in the wires and the pain in my arms. I think it wasn’t the most soundContinue reading “Week 2, Korneliusz”
Week 4: Juliette
Producer and Actor I am finding this experience of making a film every week so intense and immersive that I am actually struggling to transition back into my regular life. That has seemed to peak with this week. When I watched the Persona clip for the first time realized how huge a challenge this assignmentContinue reading “Week 4: Juliette”
Highly Recommended
Week 3: Juliette
Writing & Directing This week we had a few days head start as we noticed the next assignment was already up on Blackboard on Tuesday. Those couple days made a huge difference to the development stage. We were able to meet and talk about the idea as a group a couple times before Friday. MyContinue reading “Week 3: Juliette”
