 Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog. It was a rough weekend of little filming but I was finally able to film some more of the final task with my group today. Before all of this, I was making sure my projects would be visible to Cambridge, which is where I'm submitting my final task. It didn't t take much time to be honest and after I had some discussions with my team. Naura, Kaz, and I wanted to see if it was possible to get some filming in after school today. Little did all of us know, filming was possible today! Boom!  After school, I drove Kaz and Naura to where the main part of the filming would be done. This place would be my home. The weather was nice and cool so all of us filmed some nice scenes in my backyard. I was able to get the scenes where Kazmin and I are flourishing in the illegal business of selling drugs that were in. I used some of my Dad's bee pollen to mimic what a drug may look like because obviously there aren't any real drugs in the film. Th...

 Hey everyone this is Hunter Pangia back with another blog and welcome back. I've been busy all day with lots of work and I'm just here to blog for you guys. As I said in my previous blog my group and I could not film this weekend. Kazmin, a key group member, is going camping and brought no technology. He did this because his family wanted to disconnect from technology and spend time together. It makes sense to spend quality time together as a family so I understand. Unfortunately, I can not communicate with him but I hope he has a nice time. I didn't even reckon it was a three-day weekend so I thought Monday would have been a great day to film. The problem is that Kazmin gets back on Monday so there would be no time. I haven't been in wrestling practice recently because I was discovered to have a staph infection. This also means I haven't been around my group members because I didn't want to infect them. After about a week. However, my staph is finally going aw...

 Hey everyone this is Hunter Pangia back with another blog and welcome back to another blog. Recently I competed in a district tournament for wrestling and ended up qualifying for regionals. This ultimately means I won't be able to film next weekend. I can film this weekend and continue my team's work, but there's an issue. Kazmin, the other actor in the film is going on vacation this weekend. He said he was going to Orlando and he wouldn't be back till the following  Monday. This is unfortunate because I was able to film this weekend. Usually, I have wrestling tournaments on the weekends but this week it was on a Tuesday so I was free. My other group member, Noura, is pretty flexible with her schedule so she came up with a solution. She said that filming should be done in shorter pieces throughout the week. This way I will ultimately be able to have more of an open schedule and film as needed. In the meantime of not filming, I've been working on other things. Since...

 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...

Hey everyone this is Hunter Pangia through the thick and thin, clear and smog and welcome back to another blog. On this journey to begin the creation of this amazing film I will be documenting my personal progression along with what my group is doing. It is already February and I am a little behind on the plan with my group. My group and I have a story set and what it is all of us want to use for the short film. One issue that I have noticed is that I haven't purchased or created any props yet. Without props I ultimately can't begin the filming process. In the meantime I have been plotting my ultimate methods to succeed in the greatest film in the history of short films. I have had a hard time getting my work done which has delayed the filming process. I have been involved in wrestling and my days have been filled. On weekends when I want to start filming I always have some other type of school work to do. Nonetheless I am so excited to see what I am capable of doing with my fi...

This is an embedded Microsoft Office presentation, powered by Office .     Hey everyone welcome back to our blog. Our storyboard has arrived and here's what we got! Slide 1: The beginning of our short film where we meet our main characters and see what their personalities are as they try and cure their boredom.   Slide 2: Where the first conflict is introduced. The characters are trying to find something to occupy themselves and turn to drugs to cure their boredom.   Slide 3: The characters begin searching for any sight of a drug that will give them a rush, with dialogue being involved throughout this process.   Slide 4: They find a bottle of pills but are torn and faced with the decision of if they should take the drugs or not. They even make a pros and cons list to come to a conclusion.   Slide 5: The audience can now see that one boy wants to take them, while the other isn't sure still. They finally come to a consensus after some deciding dialogue. Th...

 Hey everyone we all hope you are having a great day! For today's blog we will be giving you a layout about our general plan for filming our upcoming short film. This plan is not what we will definitely be doing, as things never play out the way they should.  Schedule:  On 1/18/24 we will purchase our props  On 1/22/24 we will scout out our filming location  On 1/22/24 we will create/buy our costumes  On 1/25/24 we will begin filming  On 1/27/24 we will continue filming  On 1/29/24 we will finish filming  On 1/30/24 we will edit the film and make any changes needed  Location: For the location we had a few options. We first thought of filming at someone's house as the best option, as it is convenient and doesn't cost anything in terms of renting space. Filming at anywhere other than a house seems inconvenient so we will film at Hunter's house and anywhere else that we need to like a library for example.  Participants: The people that...
