AICE Media Studies

      Hey guys, it's Sean. Today I have some good news. Filming is a go for 10am Sunday. We had to go earlier for Rhys. Sean has a new job and works 4-10 Monday-Thursday.  Jackson has practice all day but Sunday. We are now all set to get this rolling. I feel much better and can now begin catching up on work. After this, we go into editing and the website. I would have loved to start but I could not even stand up without feeling sick. I don't want to get my hopes up as it has already changed so much that I can not be certain. I have hopes Sean and Jackson both make it and wake up. If we do not film this weekend I have no clue when else we could. I have an ACCUPLACER exam SAT and a culinary exam coming up. The next few weeks are very busy for everyone. But after Sunday a huge weight is taken off our backs. Besides this, we are as good as done. I'm ready to kiss the filming behind us as getting together always proves to be hard. Then we just have the essays to prep for.  Well

 Hey guys, it's Sean. On a good note today I am feeling much better and I will be filming. It is set for 1pm on Sunday which fits us all. I am still out of school until Monday but now I can start to get work done. At this point, it is our last chance to film. It may take 4 hours but it's now or never. Rhys is available and so is Jackson. He has a funeral on Saturday which is emotional but we must work the next day. Sadly I did give my mom the flu as well. She now cannot work and has the same pains I had so I must take care of her now. All I will work on now is the scene order so Sean can edit. This will give him right under 2 weeks which is more than enough to edit and see what needs a change. As someone who edited last year, I know the struggle of how long it takes. Editing is one of the biggest jobs in filmmaking. Splicing it all together perfectly is needed to make it quality. But now Jackson and I must do the media package. The website and advert are my job. While Jackson i

     Hey guys, it's Sean. So some small issues came to be today. Today is a late-night blog as I just got released from the hospital. So turns out I don't have the flu. The bad news is they do not know what I have. My fever hit 104 today which caused me to get sent in. Looks like school tomorrow is not happening. Jackson and Sean are in the dark about this I just got home and realized I need a blog and this is perfect to show our journey. As the looks of it filming Sunday is fleeing away. If I have the energy to tomorrow I will make needed calls. I want to help my group but my health may not let me. I want to ask them to move to film. But if they cannot I'll help make an order they film without me. Jackson's brother is a maybe. Or even anyone works but we need to find them fast. I know we have a due date but asking for an extension is a maybe as I cannot control my hospital visits. This is all up in the air. Yet I feel bad for my group as my health is dragging them down

      Hey guys, it's Sean. Today I unfortunately have some sad news. I was just diagnosed with the flu. Beyond that Jackson has a funeral Saturday. My condolences go to him but now filming is an issue. It was all set in stone but in a brief 12 hours, it all came down. Now an idea is either Friday or Sunday. I hope the flu goes fast because I can't show up to film with it. Rhys is the most important as he is the main character. Sean is available but 3 of us just came crashing down at the finish line. The goal was to give 2 weeks to film but that isn't reality now. Maybe we can have Jackson's brother film but I would need to make a more in-depth script so he knows the shots and order. I won't be back at school until Thursday when I will talk to our teacher. Due dates are important but so are family emergencies. For now, all I can do is the media package. We are giving Jackson space for Instagram as he needs time. The project is due 17 days from today. This is now not

      Hey guys, it's sean again. Last night laying in bed all I could think about was if our scenes could be better. I sat there for a good hour looking back at each scene and next time we meet I will run the ideas by the group. But one thing I would like to film as well is some transition shots to add along so while we edit it looks more fluid. Nothing is set yet but we have one more day to film to make changes. I overlooked the scenes indoors and I do not see a need to reshoot them but I must ask the group. My mom also comes back tomorrow so I may have more responsibilities than I had this weekend but while laying down I thought all that. As much as I missed out on going offroading with Sean. Or seeing Travis Scott in spring training in Palm Beach with Jackson. Reflection is needed to ensure quality. I want to pump this out and finish the media package but I am only one person. In other news, Rhys is available next Saturday so as long as that happens we have 2 weeks to edit. Ampl

 Hey guys, it's sean. Today we kicked off filming at Jacksons' house. Due to sudden plans, we decided today to only film inside. Next time then we can focus on the car and park scenes. We will continue again on the following Saturday. Rhys was great without him filming would have been terrible. Now over 1/4 of all the scenes are done and we don't need to take over Jackson's house all day. Everything worked out with the costumes and props. Small change is Sean is the antagonist. Rhys is the main character. Jackson is the officer, and I am the filmer. Now in the next week, the focus is on the small media package. I will take you guys on the path of designing a website. Jackson is dealing with the Instagram over on his blogger. March 15th is a bit over 3 weeks away so we can just grind it out now and begin studying for essays. Originally we wanted to be done this weekend but Rhys is unavailable tomorrow. In the meantime, another group has asked me for help. Helping out a g

       Hey guys it's Sean again. The script is almost done but a small issue is becoming the media package. So Jackson is in charge of social media. In turn, my job is the website. Yet none of us are big on graphic design so the postcard we are unsure of. Sean is up for the challenge but he is already editing and we do not want to fill his plate. And on filming we are crunching time at this point and may need to film next weekend too.  At the same time, I don't even know my work hours next week so we can't plan yet. But I placed a hold order on the costumes so that is all set. Most props are household like shoes and a car that we need. But in sad news, my rebel camera broke so now we will be filming on my iPhone 14 pro. By all means it is still a good camera nonetheless. Once my family is back in town we can discuss further filming plans. We all drive so transportation is not an issue but other plans are. Jackson plays baseball, I work, and Sean is a senior doing college pr

      Hey guys it's sean, this is the start of our official movie production. We are full steam ahead for now february 24th and 25th. This was delayed due to everyone having personal issues. Me myself, my moms father passed away in we all went to a funeral which was a major reason to halt the film date. Saturday morning while Jackson is at baseball practice I plan to get the needed costumes and props. I will film and our stars will be Jackson, Sean, and Sean's friend Rhys. Jackson will act as the cop and body in needed scenes. Sean will be the main antagonist. And Rhys will be our main character. I will be the director and filmmaker. Currently, I am finishing up the script to send over so lines will be all set for filming. Improv however will be present to really show how they fit into their roles. The time is on a crunch as Jackson is free at 2 but busy at 5 so we have 3 hours but can reshoot shots if needed at a later date. Worst case someone can't film and we find a sub
