It's my birthday!

Well it did not go as expected, too much stuff went on today and I did not get to film. I didn't really think it through to be honest but I really should have. I was out all day for my birthday and didn't have time to even make the newspaper I wanted to make and script before filming. As I did not have these items obviously I wasn't completely ready to begin filming. I think that I should begin my filming process soon  and as it did not go as planned this week maybe next week I can complete this. 

I ended up filming basic shots but it was also my birthday so there was A LOT going on in the background. With both music and chatter in the back I clearly didn't think it through because I was confused when it got to that point. Though I did try to start it with no proper plan I think I definitely need more time to get everything together. Next week I will be doing the following things that will help set up my filming for the weekend. First I will be doing my storyboard because without that I do not think it's best to start off. Yes, I did have a storyboard made but I made it today right before I trying to film so I will be making major adjustments to it. Second, I will be creating the mise-en-scene element I wanted to make which was a newspaper about the plot of the story. Also, I will continue on with my research with both sound and angles so when I do begin to film the opening I have a complete understanding of everything I sill be completing. 

Though it is sad that it didn't go as planned I do think this can be a positive as I was likely not ready to begin the filming process yet. Hopefully we can have everything ready and get started for next week. See you all soon with more progress on my journey to create an opening film scene.
