HAHAHHAHAH ITS APRIL FOOLS AHHAHAHAHAHA

 guys i have some sad news. 

I am quitting this blog. it just has become way too much for me to keep up with and i think it's better, even though this is part of my grade, to just put an indefinite pause on blogging and focus on the rest of my project. So...this is my last post. I am sorry super awesome blog readers, cambridge lads, and tstok. I hope you guys understand.

BAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 BAHAHABAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAH APRIL FOOLS BAHHAHAHAHAHAHAA

THIS IS MY THUMBNAIL BAHAHAHAH
I HAD A GROUP MEETING BAHAHAHHAHAHA

ME LITERALLY THIS ENTIRE DAY HAHHAHAHAHAHABAHABABAHAHAH

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHA

ok i have a lot of work to do lets get this started

HAHAHHAHAH ITS APRIL FOOLS AHHAHAHAHAHA: EMI TALKS TO THE SAME + NEW HUMANS ABOUT HER SILLY DEMON MOVIE

For this second and likely last group meeting, I was paired up with Aneesa, Samara, Audrey, Adriana, and Vicky! Very veryy similar to the last group that I worked with except for Audrey and Samara, so it was nice to hear updates from the og's while also talking to some new people about their super awesome creations and such :D! So without further to do...you know what time it is my flying cupcake monkeys!

IT'S DIVE IN TIME!!

1. Aneesa 
Genre: Dark comedy
Film title: W!tch

Aneesa started us off by explaining what she has done so far with her film, and even though I already knew this cause I maybe do not definitely stalk my classmate's blogs every once in a while, her and her team decided to change their entire idea from the sentient camera falling in love with another person besides the main character to a really cool mean girls x heathers x uhhh evilness type of story! I thought it would have been really awesome if they found out a way to pull off the sentient camera idea but honestly I could seriously understand from a writer's standpoint just how hard that may be to write and develop a whole story around, so I definitely support this change :D I think it's sick!

Aneesa then went on and showed us, since she didn't have any footage on her device, all of the social media postings her and Nico have been working on to build a nice cohesive brand for their piece and dude THEY LOOKED SO COOLLLLUGHHH i ADORE the tarot card idea that they went for that was genuinely such a good creative choice. As of present day, Aneesa's group has officially started up their social media page on Instagram and I saw a whole ton of other tarot card meet the cast/crew posts and really loved what they were making with their page so far! The crew's colors are in purple while the cast's colors are red which definitely creates some nice contrast while also staying true to their brand. On the back of each tarot card (second slide), there is a nice description about either the character or person behind the production which I thought was also another super awesome creative choice :]! I cannot wait to see the rest of Aneesa's social media! WAHOO! 

Aneesa also touched a bit on the filming days she had with her group within the last couple of days and while showing some really cool bts pics, I was surprised to see that these guys are using a black backdrop given to them by Sam's dad to film a "void scene."
I am genuinely so looking forward to see how that will end up looking like! Black backdrops are so cool, I wish they were real :D All in all, Aneesa's project, even though they had a little bit of a setback with the scrapping of their original idea, looks to be doing really good and just knowing the sheer skill of everybody in her group? Ts is gonna be CINEMA.
2. Emi (idk who this person is)
Genre: Dark comedy
Film title: The Scourge
Blog link: dude i genuinely do not know

Yours truly went right up after Aneesa and  explained to my group that we were also a tad bit behind on filming and started doing so the week before and then showed off two of my favorite raw shots that we caught throughout our lovely filming days! The first was the very beginning establishing opening shot of my film showing a cross on the roof of the church with the sun behind it, making it look REALLY cool and given by the reactions of my group, I could definitely tell they thought the same :] I'm glad that my short film will be starting off on the right foot! Even though the left is the side of the devil! WAHOO! With some nice coloration, which I'm working on right now (forshadowinggg!!), this shot, and the rest of the shots in my film will look ten times cooler and will be ten times more aligned with the art direction I' going for, so I'm having some high hopes right now :]

After I showed my group the sick ass sun shot, I then pulled up the shot of Otto getting absolutely slimed by Issac as she's putting up evil Calfism signs which advertise Annie Christian's fake, low budget, scammy cult and they also thought it was pretty awesome which I was glad to see :D! When my class has a nice little watch party of every single portfolio project and when we're watching my movie, I will be anticipating to see everybody's reaction to that shot BAHHAHA ITS SO GOOD and with sound effects it will be even funnier! YAYAYAYAYAYA!!!!1121211212

LOOK AT IT
its so cold in this classroom yo
1 emi vs AC who wins

I then went on to show my group some of the social media posts, specifically the meet the crew/cast to give them a clear demonstration of my brand along with the people we have chosen to act for each character (literally the 3 of us + my bestie westie Isa as Mable :D)! Along with those posts, I also showed off my very first post that went up on Insta, that being the super duper awesome promo art showing Otto smiling sinisterly with "THE SCOURGE" in a sick font right on her side. 

I primarily demonstrated that post to my group to make clear what type of font/typography we were going for with our film and again, they thought it was really cool :] I love these group meetings, because genuinely they make me feel so much less alone and make me just trust the process much better. We will be just fine, and that is something that I really took away from this second group meeting :] To anybody in my group currently reading this, I'm wishing the best for your project and hope it turns out the best it could possibly be! Thank you guys for hearing me out and offering nice feedback on everything I had to show!

3. Adriana
Genre: Comedy
Film title: One Flip Away

Next up was Adriana! She began by explaining the general plot for her short film for those who don't know yet (lol now that I'm thinking about it I should have also did that but BAHAH its okay). If you're not an avid reader and follower of my blog, Adriana's film is basically about this guy who uses a penny to teleport and do good deeds but he messes up every time.
 
Adriana has been filming, and her partner David did in fact get some shots while he was in Europe so that's pretty cool but she expressed some feelings of stress and concern about the overall progress she has on her project so far since she's behind on social media and still needs to shoot some more things. She plans to film some interviews with the cast/crew for the social media and finish the postcard ASAP along with editing! She showed us a bit of the postcard while asking for some feedback and I thought it looked really cool :] I love the bright color palette she is going for with her brand! 

After Adriana presented, the group and I said that she will be okay which again, is something that I really loved. I'm very sure with enough hard work and dedication, Adriana and David will come out with a really awesome film that they will be proud of! I adore their plot and can't wait to see it come to life :]

4. Vicky
Genre: Coming of age
Film title: Sprouting

Vicky followed up right after Adriana and began by explaining her film plot and showing off some of the raw footage she caught with her team these past couple of days :D She finalized filming the day before the group meeting, filmed three reels for social media, and started off her page with some really cool meet the cast/crew postings! Her and her team seem to be on a great track right now, although I do know they had a couple of difficulties getting started with filming due to spring break along with some other things as I'm good friends with Renn and I know about some of his happenings :] 

5. Audrey
Genre: Drama
Film title: Session One

6. Samara
Genre: Documentary
