The Trip First Draft

More discussion about editing: Problems have come up. We want to find non copyright audio of a screaming woman and we have discussed going out to the airport again for a flight of planes because we don't know if we have enough plane footage shown, the concept of them at an airport wasn't completely exaggerated. Our solution proposed was to be either to talk to our AICE Media instructor to see if we could use footage of that found without copyright or just to go try to find a plane ourselves. So far it has taken about an hour to edit. Nicole Maddy and I sat around my computer to figure out some cuts and how the film was going to progress. I alone added in a few things and organized our footage. People involved in editing were Nicole Maddy and I

Here is a photo of my computer screen during editing, using iMovie and Final Cut Pro: I, taking the job as main editor am most comfortable using these editing applications. I have used them before and they're easily accessible on my computer Here is a photo of all us students working on this film: We have yet to completely decide on titles and fonts. Really it depends on our final draft. We want it to be simple yet eerie. The font called Chalkduster put in red makes an eerie effect. So far that is what we have. Little transition or audio effects has been added as well. We plan on trying to find a clip of a scream effect for the end of the film but for the first draft it has yet to be added. 

The second day was car day not only did we go to the airport but we did a lot of filming in the cars, this first shot was shot by Nicole, we took separate cars so I was not in the car for this exact shot but we had Nicole film all of the car conversations to let the viewers better know what's going on. Another shot is when the person Maddy is cheating with pulls up to the airport/clubhouse. We used Nick's car for this scene and it builds interest for the viewer to see this car come and not know who this man is coming out. This day overall was more simple and just included a lot of driving

The first day we filmed it was mostly a practice day and day we decided where to film what scenes and started filming them. At the clubhouse where Nicole lives we made it out to be the entrance to the airport, because we knew it would be difficult to actually film at a private airport. The other significant location was Nicole's house which is Maddy's house in the film. Two shots that were important that were this first one, Nick, Maddy's husband reminding maddy not to forget her bible which is a way of foreshadowing later Maddy does forget her bible and that's how she is caught cheating. The second significant scene we filmed on day one was where Nick realizes that Maddy forgot the Bible and runs into the airport (clubhouse) and he see's that Maddy is cheating on him. This is where the whole plot for the film is established and is a turning point for the film. 

Actors: Reese Nicole Maddy Connor Chris Costume: Casual clothing, everyday wear Props: Traveling bags, car fake weapon Location: House and airport Date and Time: normal day, exact filming date undecided, most likely a few days in February Script: Little conversation, silence to build suspense, but casual conversation about the trip and their relationship and plans Film equipment: Camera, Tripod

This is our storyboard. Maddy did the art while Nicole and I tried to help devise our filming plan and plot. The story is about a man seeking revenge on his cheating wife. After the man drops his wife off at the airport he sees her meet another man. He gets so mad, and goes into his trunk to get a knife. Then the scene cuts off, creating suspense and a good opening for a movie.
