Guess who's back

 Hey everyone! I know I've been off the radar for quite some time but I am back and better than ever. I am now in A level and this year I am working on creating a full 5 minute short film. I will most likely be switching groups this year as I will discuss this next year. Here's a little bit about me and what I've been up to. I am now a junior and have completed my junior football season going 2-7 which was unfortunate but I like to stay positive. I had a nice relaxing summer and am now in full swing this year with all of my AP's that I am taking. I'm very involved in sports and am now doing wrestling once again. I've been very hard working these past weeks and I've been excelling in school like I've always had. As I have been maturing in this field of media I've been observing many films which has motivated me to do bigger things this year. My friend Harrison recently created a stop motion film all by himself called 'A Swan Story' and won a film convention locally. In this off time I've been working with him to learn more about film and what goes into it in regards to not having a large number of people to help produce a short film. Right now my wrestling season had recently started. I've been doing exceptionally well and I'm really loving my teams energy. I just wont my first few matches and I've lost some. One thing that has been sticking with me is that sometimes you have to lose to win. I have been applying this in a multitude of ways. One way this can be applied is in media. Sometimes films fail and that's just part of the learning process. That's it for me today and I hope everyone has enjoyed my catch up. This is Hunter Pangia, signing out.

 Hey everybody, this is it, the short film OVERDON'T has arrived. After months of hard work the film is finally here and I hope you all enjoy it.

Things are looking good!

 Hey everyone this is Hunter Pangia back with another blog and I hope you all are having a great Sunday as you know I am. Today is the Super Bowl, so I will be watching it with family, but I wanted to update everyone on my progress. The props have been purchased and my group and I started filming yesterday. I got through the first opening sequence with them and it's relatively easy because I did one last year as my final task. It is more hard making it shorter as I only have five minutes to film this entire process but I am up for the challenge. Me and Kazmin have similar acting styles so it was easy to have that comradery. I got some good shots of myself plotting with Kaz with Noura filming. I was in my room with Kaz and I was able to get the part filmed where I was plotting how Kaz and I are going to make money.  This process took almost two hours which is pretty long. Considering only a minute of the film was filmed yesterday, this process will take a while. I'm happy to sa...

Short Film Research:Omnibus : Comedy

Image
 Hey everyone, welcome back to another one of our research blogs. Today we will be digging in and looking into the Short Film Omnibus, a comedy. This film was made by Sam Karmann and won the Oscar in the 1992-1993 awards season. It portrays a Frenchman trying to get off of a train at a stop which it wasn't scheduled for.  In this film, the sound starts off as some cheesy movie intro, giving us this pattern that that's how a short film comedy should start. On the train in this film, all you could hear was the sound of the engine along with the dialogue between the Frenchman and the worker on the train. The idea of minimum sound is now starting to become a pattern we have noticed through the short films we have analyzed so far.  When analyzing the Mis-en-scene in this film, the costumes are usually oversized for the main character who has to well be humorous. The Frenchman in this film had a brief case, and an oversized suit, which is common in comedy films where the main c...
