House Videos

            So I originally was going to film my whole film opening at the golf course, but something got messed up and I wasn’t able to go for the week because my parents had work. However, I still wanted to record so I wasn’t behind, so I decided that I was going to film half of my opening at my house. I had an idea that I was going to make my character hurrying in getting ready to go to work. Since I have to keep the opening comedic my character is going to think he’s about to be late for work so he’s trying to rush to get to work, while getting ready he’s going to fall and get hurt. Then once he gets to the golf course his boss is going to tell him that he’s late. My character Bryson is going to think it’s by a few minutes, but he’s actually late by an hour because of daylight’s saving time.

             During the creation of the filming my house scene I had a lot trouble with certain shots. There was this one in particular when Bryson walks into the room and has to grab his clothes. This shot took so long because my brother couldn’t record from the right angle so I had to move him to the right spot and show him what angle I had wanted. Also, when I would try to grab the clothes they wouldn’t come off of the hanger and then my closet would open. What’s annoying about my closet is that it’s hard to keep closed so I had to set it back up after almost every take. I had created a time-lapse of this scene. This scene helped me realize how I need to be patient and careful when creating my film opening. It also made me realize why multiple takes are needed for a single shot.
