P1T5_Don't Say It from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.
Hello people of the world, I have come back with a new project. So if you remember, we made a movie trailer I don't really remember if it was 6th grade or 7th but we did and that's our new project. Our movie trailer is titled "Don't Say It" and it's like horror/comedy. My teammates are Shaday, Taylor and Makaio, Makaio being the leader. Our teammates worked together one way on another, I made the synopsis and they were there to tell me what they want to put in or not. I also did the character descriptions and the keywords. We are currently doing the storyboard at the moment, we have our own scenes and I a doing the third and fifth scene. Little insight about our movie trailer, a group of teens (us) did something that we didn't know would bite us back. We stole things from this car in a kind of spooky tree-e place. We don't bring them back, we just keep it and continue on with our lives and throughout what we did there was this dark figure that was watching what we did. That figure is going to be our haunting past, flying an airplane to us which reads "I know what you did last month" and it's been a month since the crime happened. Well, since WE committed the crime that we didn't think was that bad.
Now to the challenges, our biggest challenge honestly right now is editing. Filming wasn't a problem because we got everything done and we were pretty productive and stuck to the script. Putting it together in a way that's mysterious and creepy is hard because of the audio, the synchronizing, transitions, you know, all that. You know when you have the picture in your head and it's so perfect but when you do it, it's not as what you thought? Yeah, that's like me with editing. I have things I want to do but it doesn't turn out the way I want it to. Shaday and Taylor are editors while me and Makaio does the movie poster but Makaio is working on the music. That's another thing, music. We have to achieve the creepy, empty music that matches our movie trailer. What we're so off on is the movie poster, we have to take the pictures in the green screen room but we keep forgetting to get our clothes so it's the same and it happens everyday so like we can't get it so we're currently sticking to a screenshot which isn't the highest quality and not leaning to the creepy side. Filming was the easy part, now the rest isn't.
As you can see from the results, we won first place and tied with Focused, 9-9 votes. I feel very proud of my team, it's great winning first place and knowing the class likes what you've been working so hard on. On the bars thing, we mostly got 4's and a little bit of 3's on each one but it's cool. Knowing the majority of votes is a 4 I'm happy. I learned that after 2 years of being in GT your last year will be your mots accomplishing year ever because I've been always at least like in 3rd+ place. It's literally great, if you work hard, plan well, schedule, communicate that's how things are going to work out for you. Also sticking to the script is the main thing because it's easier when you're editing. You don't have to jump around looking for clips that are all over the place, you can just drag and drop on clip and
the next clip is the continuation of the last clip. Key to success is honestly communication, some teams in our class didn't communicate well that's why they we're slacking and behind with filming. Well that's all, I'm glad we won, we worked hard, it payed off and overall it's just great.
