Improving the Hack

        In this post I am going to be talking about what I am doing to improve the hack. I know that I have been posting a lot about this virus and hack, but at the moment that is what I am focusing on, since it is Honestly one of the most important parts of our film. I am close to getting the virus to how I want it.
        In the beginning, I thought the virus was going to be completely different to what I have now. I thought our character was just going to be drawn in by the static on the tv. Now that we have changed this around we have made the virus a little more complex and visually appealing. Currently I am getting closer to the end of what I want it to look like, all I want to do is make it smoother than what I have at the moment. The transition between the shot of the virus and the eye is a little choppy. A way that I might be able to fix it is by fading the virus with the eye to make is a better transition. I just want to look like the virus is going into her eye. That is the concept that I came up with after I made the virus, which looks like an eye. 
       I am aiming for this to be done in a few days so i can get started on the rest of the film. Lets see how it goes:)

Location Revise

      Welcome back for the third post of the week. In this post I am going to be explaining why we had to change our location of our film opening .         Originally we had planned out that we wanted to film in a garage with small tv and a couch. That had to change due to the reason that we could not find a garage to film in. My partner and I decided to just film inside a house and make it look as if it were a small apartment. Since our main focus is the virus that is going around we did not really have an issue with changing the location. The only thing that was a little bit difficult is that we had to get her out of the room at one point to broadcast the emergency that was going to be up on the tv. Since the house we filmed in had a very open space we had to film around that and make it seem smaller that it actually was. I ended up capturing shots that made it look as if our character was living in a small apartment, which is really good. If there were any open spaces I just had to

Sound

        Hello everyone and this is the 4th and final post of the week! This week had been very hectic since we were planning a lot to be able to go and film today. Everything at the moment is going according to plan.         While we were filming, my partner during the shots was directing the actors to do what she wanted them to do, which worked out great. The only problem with that is that she is talking in the back of the clips. So what I decided to do is grab all the stuff we were using and film separate clips of just the audio of things like walking, banging the remote, and things like that. Being able to hear the sound is very important, because without those sounds our film opening will be very plain and boring. While we were filming I filmed quick things that I could use for later. I also came across this video which shows certain things to create different kinds of sound. Having an effective microphone for this is a huge necessity for this is very important to make it seem as

On screen Text

        Hello everyone and welcome back to week 5 of the blog. This process has been a very difficult one, but we are making our way towards the end of this film opening. Since our schedules were very full and we were both going to be out in spring break we have already filmed and our in post production.         We have first began editing all the effects that we are going to put in like the text and the virus. Coming up with how we wanted the text to look like was rather easy since we wanted the text to look like a kind of hacker text. We looked up a video on youtube to figure out how to recreate the specific kind of text and it turned out exactly how we wanted it. I just have to make a few more different ones with different text but I am liking how this is looking.  We have decided to use this during the virus to make is seem that the virus is fully being transmitted. In class , we had another discussion about our projects(which I will address in a later post), some students that I
