    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...

    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 ...

    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 parti...

    Hi everyone, it's Natalie! Now right now it has come to my attention of the actors I have participating in my upcoming film. Which more specially the roles I want them to play. As we know the back stories for the characters surround Luna Madden who will be the main character protagonist/antagonist. As well as Veronica Barlowe who is Luna's current best friend as we find out the old one to have died. Which leads us to Robin Whitlock who is Luna’s dead ex best friend. In which the mystery is what happens to her - Robin. As the question is in the air of who actually killed her. Which does not revealed as I want the film to end with a cliffhanger and up to the viewers interpretation. But, towards the actors, for Luna I need someone whom can portray both normal and paranoid behaviors as this character is suffering with delusions and voices her head. Now for Veronica a much mores sort of irritable, not easy going person but, towards Luna her behavior differs. It all just depends...

     Hey everyone it's Natalie, now in this blog I really want to discuss my visions for the project. And really what I felt needed a little switch. Now what I felt was important to incorporate a sort of clothing style in the film like an aesthetic. Which I thought I wanted to be a modern-today like style of clothing. But, while researching and looking at the outfits of 2000's and 90's horror films. I seem to like that style and aesthetic for the movie. With that being said I feel like having Luna wear a denim skirt with I feel a lace tank top with jewelry would be a great way to match her energy with that style. As well as Veronica but I feel like towards her knowing id like her character to be a sort of tomboy girl. A pair of jorts with a black tank top would also match perfectly with Luna as well and match their energies together. Now towards Robin to add a little mystery towards her character I am thinking a different shaped and style of black shirt that doesn't loo...

    Hi everyone! It’s Natalie, and in today’s blog I want to discuss the editing software I am thinking of using. Now in the previous project I had done with a group I was not the one in charge of editing. As I mentioned before I acted and helped to direct some parts of the scenes. So the editing process may be a little challenging for me. But I am looking towards using the editing software CapCut or the iMovie on apple. As well as changes in what I will be using to film. Prior to almost a week ago I was set on using my dad's Go Pro to film. But, due to my clumsy little brother I will no longer be capable in doing so as there was an accident involved with the camera though it still works the setting of the camera. Are not working as they once did. Now I will be using own phone instead, I mean as of right now I have the iPhone 14 which is now maybe a year old in the apple phone world. But in my opinion the quality is good and similar to the new phone that is out now which is th...

    Hi everyone, it's Natalie! Now surrounding my upcoming project, my final task.  I have started to try and see as to where we might be able to gather and get certain props and other things we might need for the video. But, towards the filming process it has been interesting a quiet fun as preparing everyone props and costumes has been pretty interesting . There are ideas that I once believed would perfectly fit the plot as it would help people to grip a better understanding but after trying to make it manageable to doing to was too complex. When it comes to trying to figure out locations on where to shoot parts of the video have been a bit complex as well. Like for specific scenes I want to be at different times of the day for different lighting and etc. and in those locations are we even having the ability to film there with the times we want to be there. As we'll as limiting the places we film for it to be much easier for everyone is another thing. As moving location...

    Hi everyone! It’s Natalie, and today I will be discussing the locations and times of where I would like and believe is good to film. Now to begin with we know that most if not all will be filmed at my house. At different times of the day. So I will need my actresses to be available at similar times. So options are that I can film with the actresses in pairs in times of the days when I need them. Or we all can find a day we can come together for the day and shoot it in one shot. Which can be a little complex when we get to that point cause of everyone's schedule but I feel and hope that there'll be a mutual time we can film. And thankfully my house is in a location where is is manageable for everyone to drive too. With the setting being in a library which as well I have close and near me. Which can help us get situated. With that being said I will be able to fix up times where tills work. With speaking of actresses I have now came up with a more in depth material in regard ...
