    Hi everyone! It’s Natalie, after everything and all the hard work done by actors and myself it has finally come to an end where only small little remarks and tweaks need to be fixed on the video. But, I am truly grateful for all the help I received towards this project as the product I have as of right now is remarkable and truly impressive. While reviewing the project and showing my peers I made sure to take notes and listen to the comments they made to find the things that can benefit the project. One of my classmates Jordan while reviewing the video helped to take notice to the things I missed while editing like the volume of the background music I had added  as well as the sound of the effects I added as well. As one of the main things I did was putting all those background noises specially to have that tension and horror sort of build up. As I want people to sort of be on the edge of their seats and sort of just waiting for what comes next. As it is a thriller/horror film. Jor

The Final cuts

   Hi everyone! It’s Natalie, and in today’s blog, I want to talk about the editing process surrounding the film itself. As we know I did incorporate a lot of different effects and everything having to do with the sounds. As I felt it would've given more to the film as emotion for the audience to really get that feel. Now one of the main parts of the film that was one of the most challenging had to be the beginning scene of Luna waking up and having that important scene with Robin. Reason being that I had to figure out a way to slow down this part of the scene as I felt the actors were moving and talking too fast. By which in the scene as well the Luna is walking up and like normal while we wake up normally we feel a little sluggish and I wanted It to look like that.Now the editing software I used was CapCut and with that I figured out a way to slow down the clip by 5.6 seconds then the original speeding point. And with that I had to make sure that the voice wasn't slowed too m

Filming Blog: Almost there

    Hi everyone! It’s Natalie, and in today’s blog, we are going do be discussing us FINALLY FILMING. So with that being said to start of it was for sure a very memorable and fun experience . We start off by filming the scenes where Stella wouldn't need to be covered in blood because e'd look crazy filming in barns and nobles like that. The first scenes we filmed I doing so were the scenes we had between Isa and Rin. So that was the outside scenes where Rin would be honking towards the house and Isa running towards the car. Which then lead us to filming the car scenes as we had to drive to Barnes and Nobles eventually. Which took as a couple times as we had to measure the distance we had Rin drive and the right time to raise the music that was on queue. Which Rin and I chose to be Boys don't cry by the cure. So with that we went odd to barnes and nobles. I shot a scene of Isa and Rin walking in and then lead to Isa filming a jump scare since with Isa. And here we we made su

Filming Blog: Something about that

    Hi everyone, it's Natalie! It's been a fun time gathering all the props as we are near too filming in a very very short amount of time. The actresses are set in stone wit their characters after the quick rehearse;s I had with them all and will have before we film. Now it only surrounds the timing I would like to film, which as of right now I believe to start at midday of the upcoming Saturday and the evening to get an eerie feel for the last scene. And of course the location of the film will have to do with my house most importantly due to the fact of the story having to be in a place that can be the easiest to work with. As well as a lot of the story time dealing with being in Luna's home. The only other location which would be the library which I have chosen to do it at Barnes and Nobles as the distance towards my house isn't that bad and can save us some time. Now something about the fake blood we need has been pretty hard to find. Especially due the fact I need

Filming Blog: The actors

    Hi everyone, it's Natalie! So to start off towards one of the most important factors of this film... the actor. With Isabella Fontavlo playing the role of Luna Madden, main character protagonist/antagonist. Which is where the story and other characters are revolving around. With Rin Escobio playing  Veronica Barlowe, whom is Luna's current best friend in which we don't see much of her compared to the other characters but does have a vile part in the story and its unfolding. And Stella Lipscomb playing the one and Robin Whitlock, Luna’s dead ex best friend (Luna murders her), with this complex character we are introduces to the main mystery of this story. And with the scenes Robin has will create an amazing amount of horror and tension for the audiences to rally get that feel. Mostly due to the fact she will be drenched in fake blood and talking very creepily. With that all the being said a little backstory of the actors. Now this will be all of their first times partici
