Chase Scene

Pre-Production

      Coming up with three ideas was easy for the group I was with due to ideas thought of ahead of time. Many of the ideas included a thief. We finally decided to do a museum chase scene with lots of comedy. This project was really exciting to film, and be in. I learned that having a bit of fun behind the scenes is okay and makes the project more enjoyable to work on with others. The enjoyment behind the scene shines through in the project through the comedy and the action scenes.

Scouting and Filming

     Scouting our location was very easy due to everybody's flexibility with locating possible settings for scenes. The filming bit was easy as well due to a great director and the actor and actresses very very open to listening and everybody had an open mind.
     I was assistant Director and "Cop" 2 in this project. We didn't know who would be who for a long time. We agreed that our director would be Steven due to him knowing what he wanted, and his great leadership skills. I would be assistant director since . my part in the film wasn't as big. Ethan was the main Cop who was the stereotypical lazy guard. Anna was the thief due to her accessibility to black clothing.  I wouldn't do anything different with this project due to how exciting it was to film, and be in. A lot of fun took place behind the scenes which was one factor as to why this project was a blast.

Editing

    I used Adobe Premier Pro for editing. I have used Adobe three times now, and it is easy to use. However, I did have an issue where I thought I lost all my work. All the clips said "Media Offline" and I closed out of Adobe to find my folder on the school server. It wasn't in the spot it normally was, so I called the teacher over. Luckily, Anna, who was working across from me, found my folder. I moved my folder back to its normal spot, and found my project. I did have to come in during lunch to work on the project to catch up to where I was before it went "offline". One thing I can do better is save my project more often. 

Overview

      Team collaboration was awesome. We were having fun, but staying on task as well. The director did an awesome job politely criticizing what the actor and actresses can do better. The actor did a great job portraying a lazy guard, and the thief did a marvelous job adding comedy to the scenes. I did a good job of being funny and serious at the same time.
