Editing Blog: Transitions and Filters

 Hey Blog! 

Today I will continue editing my short film introduction. I will first start on transitions. In order to add the transition, all you have to do is click a little white button in between the clips. Then, a whole choice of transitions shows up. I first tried the “Up” this one just slides the earlier clip up and presents the new one. I was not a big fan because I think it took away from the dramatic tone. So, I decided to use the “Wipe Left” because I think it looks nicer. It is very clean and a smooth transition into the next shot. Then I began deciding on filters. (10) 

In order to add a filter, I had to select the clip. From there, a whole menu pops up! I slid over until I saw the filters button. There were so many to choose from and I tried a few of them. The filters ended up making my shots almost blurry, so I decided not to use them. This is a shame though because I really liked how they enhanced the film. Next time, I will use different lighting when filming to give off the same effect. 

I hope you all enjoyed today's blog! I had a ton of fun looking at the filters and transitions. Thanks for reading and talk to you soon!

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...

Our Pitch

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 ...
