Silent Movie

Our silent movie turned out to be good. The acting was great by all of my peers. We all had a lot of fun doing it. We were productive as a group and finished before our classes deadline. The project was good and the plot of the movie was a old lady who really didn't get hit by a car but made a big fuss and ended up getting the alleged driver arrested at the end the old lady turned out to be the crook beciass she stole the mans wallet that the police officer threw on the ground while arresting the man.

We ran into some complications with filming. Our first camera's battery couldn't last the whole period! This rushed the filming of some of our scenes to the point where if we had a better camera we could of executed them better. The rest of the movie was filmed on an iPhone. This was one problem we overcame as a group!

The filming turned out to be okay. The one scene that was supposed to show the old lady getting hit by the car was filmed poorly. It shows my character pushing the car which was not supposed to happen. The scene didn't show the significance of the car not hitting the old lady. It can be hard to interpret if you don't know the plot ahead of time. We could of resolved this by going with the original idea of having a zoomed out camera angle and having both the driver and the old lady in view of the camera at the same time. This would of stressed the plot and I wouldn't be in the scene if we filmed it like this because I would have pushed the car to a speed where I wouldn't have been behind the car slowly wheeling him to the intersection. Staging was also not great. We can see a piano and many pieces of furniture in the scene. This was supposed to be a open highway. But all and all my group did great.

At the end of the day I am proud of my group for overcoming many obstacles such as lack of props and ended up  putting together a solid film. We will work harder and harder until we can achieve what we want in acting class.
