Editing Blog: Just beginning

 Hey Blog! 

Today I edited the clips I have so far! This has probably been the hardest part so far if I am being completely honest. Last time I filmed another two scenes of my short film introduction, and now I have three scenes total to edit. This may be a tricky part, but I persevered and will continue to! 

First, I had to decide what editing software I would use. Last time I used capcut, but I still wanted to do a little research to make sure that is what I wanted to do. I knew that I would be editing on my phone, so I searched for mobile editing software. One of the top ones that popped up was Kinemaster. 

Kinemaster is a mobile editing software whose standard version is free to use. So, I downloaded it to see if it would be an easier way to edit. However, I already know how Capcut operates, so i decided to stick to that program.  

In the end I am happy I chose Capcut. I just had to upload the clips I wanted to use, and then I could rearrange them with ease. Also, if I need to cut or extend a clip, that is super simple. I am excited about the “add music” feature because I know that I definitely would like to incorporate some into my short film introduction. I think I will be selecting music soon, but I already have some dramatic tunes in my mind! 

The trickiest part about editing is definitely the time it takes. I feel like everything is super tedious, and it is easy to make a mistake. I am happy I finished editing the first three scenes today, but I know there are more to come. 

I hope you all enjoyed this blog. Thank you for reading and see you soon!

Our Pitch

Image
Hey Blog!             Today Karina and I will be coming up with an idea for our short film. I will now present to you our two pitches. 1.      A teenager is hired to babysit. The child tries to warn her about an evil within the house, however the evil is the parents who hired her 2.      A strange guest shows up to a private dinner. The guest is creepy and knows secrets on all the other guests. Both Karina and I are extremely interested in using the first pitch. The idea is not too complicated and could be done. Not only that, but it would be a horror short which could be super fun. We could experiment with different lighting, acting, and props. This idea is simple, yet surprising, which would make it perfect for our short! The second pitch is less exciting for us. Although the creepiness of the guest is cool, its not really sticking out to us. Not to mention, it may be difficult to make ...

Comparing 9, the Short, and 9, the Full-Length Movie

 Hey Blog!      Today I will be taking a deep dive into 9, both the short and full length, to do research before my project. I hope you all enjoy!      Shane Acker’s 9 was originally a short film in 2005 that later became a full-length movie in 2009. Both versions take place in a post-apocalyptic world w here small ragdoll creatures, each named after numbers, try to survive. Although both films have the same plot, the differences between the short and full-length films are evident . So, throughout the rest of this blog I will compare the two!        The short film 9 is about ten minutes, with a minimal narrative. Although it is short, the film still possesses an urgent tone. It revolves around a living doll, 9, and his quests to find other survivors. Due to the dystopian genre, the film is visually dark and has decayed machinery props. The film is almost silent, with minimal dialogue and sound, so that way the audience may...
