Blog Post #26 - Importance of Script

The script is a crucial part of the film making process. It serves as the blue print and building blocks for the entire film production. Scripts outline the story, characters, and actions that will take place. The script guides the actors, director, and crew on the film. 


The script I have provided here, is one that I previously created for a previous assignment in the AICE Media Studies course. The script will be one of if not the most important parts of my film making process, as it guides me how to shoot scenes, format shots, play out dialogue, and create rigs. The script will also guide me when I edit my film together, as more often than not filming scenes in chronological order, just isn't possible, so during the editing process I can look back at the script to know where to put scenes, and wether I am missing any scenes and need to do reshoots for the project.

Blog Post #12 - Auditioning for "Party Guest 2"

 My film will take place at a party, where a guest is possessed. That being said I will need multiple people to attend the party, and multiple people to get killed. This audition is for the second party guest, and for one of the 3 kills(what I am aiming for) of the opening scene. Candidate 1: Mason Mattix Candidate 2: Matthew Stramiello For the party guests I am looking for how well the candidates can act out fear, and expression. After analyzing both auditions, I have chosen to cast Candidate 2: Matthew Stramiello as "Party Guest 2". He is much more expressive then Candidate 1, and truly show cases the horror he is witnessing through his body posture.

Blog Post #44 - Filming Scene 3 [Patio Party Starts]

 This is the third scene in the film where the group(Romen Basu, Cole Bryant, Matthew Stramiello, and Robert Sokoll) goes into the patio, to start playing football, and grilling. However, right as the guys start playing football, Blair's(Romen) dogs want to come outside, and when John(Cole) lets them out, they run out of the gate of Blair's house, so Blair leave to go find them.  This scene is where the friends find themselves most at comfort before the horror begins. The music blasting and them being together in a group, give them a false sense of security and safety to the dangers that lurk around them. I continued to use open framing for these scenes, leaving the audience to feel suspenseful during them. I also used the contrast from the well-lit patio and the dark backyard, to show the dangers the group should really be focused on.
