This whole project was a journey, and at least in my part, I can say that I learned a lot. My partner and I have experienced a lot of challenges along the way (editing and recording wise). But we easily solved each issue thanks to Youtube. Our editing and production (and even filming) skills improved a lot. The coursework also enhanced our filming abilities. Reviewing the shots and angles we studied came in handy, and made it easy to make our project look the way we wanted.
One thing I learned was better time management. To be honest with you, I approached this project not really knowing when and where to organize my time. I procrastinate a lot but this project sort of forced me to stick to a schedule which included the blog posts. We had no problems with communication, all was clear.
One of the major programs I used to create the beat was FL Studio. Since I already have experience with music production and audio engineering, creating an original soundtrack/score wasn't a difficult task for me. However, finding the right objects and sounds to record was trickier.
One of the major issues was fitting the sounds and melodies in the right place of the recording, so that the sound was synchronous. This, for me was the hardest part about producing the beat. I set my phone next to my computer with the soundless film opening playing while I worked on the song, since I didnt think of a different way to do it. I would have to click on both the film and the song's play button at the same time to figure out where the sounds would sound best and most logical.
UPDATES:
Me and my partner met up at my house to finish recording the studio scene. Fortunately, we were able to finish filming by Wednesday. The filming went very well, and it also looked great thanks to the special lighting we bought. During the studio scene, we had some issues with technology: FL studio wasn't working, and it took me about 30 minutes to get it running again. This was important since it was the main element that made that scene look good. Additionally, Santiago's phone camera was glitching, but it was quickly fixed after he powered it off and turned it back on.
Anyways, here's a sneak peak of the scene.
At first, film producers worked with daylight; then natural sources like candles, mirrors, fire, etc, and finally, artificial lighting. Matter of fact, Hollywood moved its main headquarters from New York to Los Angeles, mainly because on the west coast of the USA there was a stronger, clearer and more present light.
David Wark Griffith (film director) was the first use artificial lighting in his films, says Richard Blank. Cecil B. DeMille, a colleague of Griffith's, was then the one who determined the lighting rules that would be followed in Hollywood in the following decades. Additionally, DeMille created a completely new kind of light. This happened in the 1920s, when the big studios started to have their shares traded on the stock exchange and began to be part of the establishment. At that moment, a set of rules was created to be followed in cinema, which in turn became a business. One of the rules was not to irritate the public, so that the films would be successful from a commercial point of view. Anything that was experimental was considered risky and therefore "forbidden", which makes Cecil B. DeMille a legend.
