Final Project: Movie Intro


     We have finally completed our music video, and we were assigned our final project. This film was going to be a title sequence for an original film. Instead of working in groups of two, we combined groups to a group of 4. Our first step was to decide which genre of film we liked and felt would fit the time frame of 2 minutes. After much discussion, we decided on a thriller and go to work on a basic storyboard. The basic plot involves 2 women who seduce and kill men. To hone in on the details we made an elaborate storyboard that showed the progress of the story every 2 seconds. Next, we planned locations and decided on a parking lot and Nyaira's house. Then, we decided on costumes and props to further the story. Filming took place over several days to make sure all the scenes were done. After the filming was complete, the editing began. This time the editing included adding in titles amongst the scenes. Next, we had a peer review and were able to reshoot and re-edit some of the scenes to improve the movie. During this time,  a worldwide pandemic hit which prevented us from getting together. Like in Hollywood, in-person filming and editing had to be suspended. To continue to communicate we were able to use platforms like Facetime and Microsoft teams. Though the pandemic suspended face to face meetings we were able to complete the project. Throughout this project, I learned to preserve with teammates, and through a pandemic.  Overall, I used all my prior experience to help my group make a fantastic movie.
