A) Challenges and Pride

A challenge we had in our group was turning in all of our work that goes with the movie on time. The movie was done but we still finished our poster late. A pride I have in this project is the movie over all. Since I was the one filming the movie and the director I am a little bit more proud because the movie came out nicely. The leadership skill my group and I used was project management and productive collaboration . The way we used project management didn't go so well because we did not complete our project on time. But I can make sure this doesn't happen next time by planning a day with me and my group members to stay after school. Although we didn't use project management well, we did use productive collaboration very well. Since my group members and I are all friends we did not have a hard time working with each other.

What was the purpose? What was the process?

The purpose for the final project was to show how much we have grown since the first video we did in this class. Also I think it was to have fun and be creative instead of doing a movie that someone has already written. The process in completing this project was first writing a script, then filming it.

Subject Motivated, when the way the camera moves responds to stimuli in which comes from the action of the scene. A passive mode of filming

Search Motivated, the camera works to find a good view of what is going on by anticipating or hypothesizes, etc...

Boredom Motivated, the camera stimulates human tendency

Reflect on 1st movie

Easy: Working with my group was easy because we all got along.
Hard: Doing things on que.
What could be better?: Our emotions since there was no sound in the movie, we really had to express our emotions with our body language and facial expressions
I liked...: I liked everything about it because it was all fun. I also liked the fact that there was no script

Cutting on Action: This is when a piece of the film is edited during a high action part of a movie. A very subtle change is made that cant be noticed but makes a difference.

Match Cut Rules:  First, let the scene start filming until the action in the movie comes to set. Only use enough action so that you can understand the action.

What was the hardest part of making a video?

The hardest part about making a video is knowing the appropriate time to zoom in and to get a good sound while filming.

What is your favorite movie? Describe a scene that you remember

One of my favorite movies is A Bronx Tale. One of the scenes in the movie I best remember is when the character, "Sonny", got shot. and also the scene where "C" has a date with a girl he likes  and Sonny tells him how to handle himself.
