Summary

I was involved in the post-production process by helping the editor with the order of shots and helping the sound designer with what sounds to make and use in the film.

Evidence of Further Input

There was no additional dialogue added in post-production. All the input in pre-production was communicated directly in person to my team or teammates. For example, the sound designer would ask me what sounds he needed to make and then I would help pick which one sounded the best. Another example is when the editor asked me which shot was better and what the order should be.

Evaluation of Script

My script was a little artistic, but not very technical. It was a little artistic because of the choice to use flash-forward and expanding time through pacing techniques. We didn’t have much dialogue so that made the script not very technical.

How I Could Have Improved The Film

I would have added more dialogue to the script. For the film, I would have maybe tried to have one more on-screen character and would have changed a few shots to not be upside down because the end result was a little confusing.

What I Learned

I learned how to communicate with my team very effectively and efficiently.

Summary

In production, I helped the actor with her lines and helped my other team members if they needed help.

Contribution to the Shooting Script

During shooting, we changed the actor’s lines a little bit and also took the actor’s off-screen friend’s lines out. We made these changes because it made the dialogue flow better and we ran out of time to do the off-screen friend’s lines. This is shown in the pictures down below in the On-site Re-writes section.

Challenges Faced During Shooting

One problem we had while shooting is that we forgot an outfit and couldn’t finish the ending of the film until we brought it. We solved this problem by working on other things related to our film for the 2 days that we couldn’t finish filming.

Assistance Given to the Director

I helped the actors with their outfit choices and their lines throughout the film. I also helped the cinematographer with getting the right shots by holding the storyboard and letting them know the shots.

What I Learned

I learned how important it is to have all of your stuff and props for filming so that you aren’t rushing your editor to get the film in on time.
