Production: Behind the scenes

 This post includes pictures of our behind-the-scenes that will show each team member's tasks (roles) in each scene. This post was made by Saka and Nicho.


Nicho setting up a suitable camera angle to film our star’s sad scene




Bagas and Nicho organizing to film the talking scene at school, under the umbrella





All people trying to making the bedroom messy to connote a stressful mood




Bagas getting ready to film our star (Doood played by Bagus) on the rooftop 


We didn't have a clipboard so we wrote which scene and the number of takes we were in








Roles:

  1. Bagas: main cameraman

  2. Nicho: the person who did multicam in most of the scenes 

  3. Saka: brainstormed and planned, what would happen in the scenes, before filming

  4. Bagus: main actor in all the scenes



Problems:

  • We had trouble with finding a day where everyone has free time

  • Our original actor was another girl but she was busy

  • Weather, rain made it worse for the happy scenes

  • The sunset was never there

  • Time management, whenever we scheduled our filming, one of us are always late

  • Our ball deflated 



Solutions:

  • We tried to do as many scenes as we could whenever all of us were present

  • We found another girl actor

  • We try as much as possible to not show the rain

  • We didn't use a sunset scene

  • We try to schedule the time we meet to be 1 hour earlier in case anyone is late

  • We still managed to use the ball, taping the hole and pumped the ball after every scene

The behind the scenes didnt really help much with production but It does help reflect on us, such as point out noticable mistakes in recording that we can furthter improve in the future. The way ive helped in this blogost is that ive pointed out the problems that we had during this whole recording session and provided some inputs towards the solution. In the future I hope this behind the scenes can help us avoid the problems that we made in this project .

Production: File Organisation

 This is how me and my group organised the video clips for our project


We used our whatsapp group as a way to compile all the clips together ,since we recorded using different phones. After it's compiled I will then download and organise the files on my desktop using file explorer. There is where I categorise the clips according to its location such as school and its bagus’s house.






Advantages of using whatsapp:

  • Easy to connect and send

  • We can discuss things as we send 

  • Being in a group allows all of us to view the clips 


Advantages of using file explorer

  • Does not require an internet connection

  • Easy to access

  • Labeling feature makes it easier to locate video clips


Disadvantages of using whatsapp

  • Requires an internet connection 

  • Quality decreases when we send in whatsapp


Disadvantages of file explorer

  • The amount of things you can put in depends on how much storage you have on your laptop, so if your laptop is full then the less amount of video clips you can put in 


Before this blog post was requested to be done by our teacher, I had no sort of file organization, I piled up everything
on one file which is the download folder. But because of this blog I was able to manage all of my files and clips .
This helped me locate clips quicker as I labeled them accordingly to the location , later on makes it convenient to edit .
In the future Ill be able to manage my files even better .
