Art To Life
Tomato Soup
This project could have gone a lot more smoothly. As a group we were a little shaky in pre production and truly couldn't decide what picture to do. We all decided on Andy Warhol as the artist but we couldn't all decide a picture that we all liked. We decided to settle for the Soup Can picture because logically it was the easiest to do in such short notice. I wasn't thrilled about this because I thought that we could push our boundaries and comfort zone by doing a more challenging picture.
Unfortunately the day of the filming, I had come down with strep throat. Therefore I wasn't so much apart of the filming and pre production process. There was no story board directly made, just a list of shots, which made it difficult in the post production process to decipher the time sequence because the shots were shot out of order. To add onto this the story wasn't well thought through and the original plot line was virtually impossible to get from the scenes.
From my understandings Ian did most of the filming considering he is a film major, and Alex, Molly and Jaclyn did the acting. There was also a problem when it came to the acting because the actions weren't thought out prior and therefore scattered and confusing when going to shoot. I edited the project with the help of Jaclyn to make sure things were in the right sequence.
Editing went quite smoothly because although this was not my first encounter with Final Cut Pro, this was my first encounter where I was able to do everything by myself without getting help. This is very important to me to take away from this project because I am a film major and editing is a big and expected part, and to be able to have a good grip on how to do everything on final cut pro without the help of others is a big deal.
In the end although the pre production was a little sloppy causing there to be some bumps down the road, we were able to get our project done in time and with good quality. We worked on match up action a lot, shooting the same scene multiple times from different angles so that the viewer could get the total perspective on what was going on. We also used things like close ups and reaction shots to help further our point of the fight over the soup without saying words. Overall this project came out good, and I would work with this group again.
