Storyboard for Final Task


    This is the storyboard for the final task! We used a total of 9 sheets to illustrate every detail of our short film. As the main plot point of our story is that the main character's day keeps on repeating, most of our shots had to look the same. 

    The first sheet shows the opening sequence of the short film. The main character, April, wakes up out of her bed from the alarm on her phone. Annoyed, she hops off and crosses the current day on the calendar. The day is zoomed in to; Wednesday the third. Cut to April getting dressed; as she showers, her mom calls her. She reminds April to pick up the cake for her sister's 9th birthday party. In a hurry, she speeds out of her house, dressed, leaving her phone. As she is driving, her favorite song plays "Promiscuous Girl" semi distracted; she catches a glimpse of a stop sign up ahead yet decides to pass it. April takes her eyes off the road for a split second, causing her to collide with another car, leading the scene into a blackout. April wakes up in her room again and her dad completely starts over. As her day repeats she does everything a little different, making the car crash happen later. After her third day repeating, she is finally able to get back to the future, Thursday the fourth.

    The process of making this storyboard was very fun! Compared to my storyboards in AS level, I've gotten better at making them in greater detail. Not to mention the finish time has gotten quicker. Overall, I have improved greatly especially while working in a group. I can't wait to start filming!

Production Blog- Second day of fliming

     My group and I began day two of filming today. We had intended on filming the vehicle and car crash scenes. We knew we had to film them strategically to ensure the safety of ourselves and our surroundings. Due to our scenes repeating, recording each part various times was crucial. We started by recording each part separately then compared them afterward. This made the process smoother since the entire scene was already set. This included the clothing, sets, and proper lighting. Much like the first day, we started to run into some problems. For the majority of our time, everything was running smoothly. However, the weather began to work against us. In some parts, the wind was too active which messed with the audio. Most of the dialogue was washed out so we couldn't really hear. Just before we thought it couldn't get worse... it got worse. Clouds started to form and sooner than later we were forced indoors. Due to this, we were unable to film the car crash. Yet, we used this

Production Blog- Post Card

Image
Due to my absence from school, my group stepped in to complete the postcard. A postcard is a physical or digital small form of advertisement. There is usually a front and back. The theme of the postcard usually matches the genre of the media. In our case: Mystery. The title of our short film is "Wednesday Drive." To get that point across to our viewers, we need to include a car of some sort onto the postcard. After a few website searches for the car in motion, we finally found the right one. The picture we used portrays a car driving fast. Due to the focus of the photo, you can sense the speed is above the speed limit. This plant's images in your mind of what is to come next. Will the driver into a car accident, will they get pulled over. Thus, leaving you wanting more. On the front of our postcard, we also include the showtimes, address, a QR code to the website, and our social media. Every important piece of information the audience may need is right on the card.

A Level: Group Blog

Hi! Dru here. As you know, last year for my final task I chose to work alone. Due to covid and time conflicts. However, for my  A level final task I will be grouping up with 2 other people: S and Vanessa G. I am excited to be able to group up rather than work alone. This will help make the process a little easier. We all have different experiences and thoughts so the final product will be a reflection of that.  We plan on brainstorming first. Then, planning the rest of our events. Such as who is filming, acting, and editing. When we choose to meet and themes. I chose to work with these people because we already are comfortable with each other and are hard workers. We are all really passionate in making this the best.  We knew we were going to group up from the start. So I am really glad it all worked out. This will be not only be great quality, but we will also have fun doing it. Having fun is a big part of group projects. If none of you are having fun then it will reflect on your prod
