Recreate scene

 

Scene recreation

This post contains a mini project that helped us learn how to shoot a cinematic scene. we did this as a group

Lesson Description: My teacher told us to find a scene from a movie in our genre. Our chosen task was to recreate this scene from John Wick where he and the film's main antagonist conversed with each other engaging in a deal. 

Original scene:

Story board:

Recreated Scene:

Problems, How to solve them and What to do next time: My teamate gusde do this problems 

1) We do not have the proper camera equipment, so sometimes the camera movements are a bit unstable, making it look unprofessional. We could not solve this problem besides the least we could do was to get someone from our group to have stable hands when holding the camera. Next time we would be required to buy new equipment that would stabilize the camera when moving to create a better quality film for the audience and avoid shaking the camera.

2) The backlight when we were filming ruins the recreated scene as the original scene was in a dark gloomy weather. There was nothing we could do as we could not control the weather and we did not have enough time to find a new place to film. Next time we would need to take our time to decide which location would be suitable for the environment to match with the original film. Though the silhouetting of actors did make them seam a bit more menacing and mysterious

3) There were background noises from the area where we filmed which caused a disturbance in the audio every time the character was speaking even though we had a phone microphone near the voice of our actor. We solved this problem by muffling the audio from the video however this makes the character's voice low and unclear. Next time we would need to buy a proper microphone attached to our actors so their voices can be heard loud and clear. We also would need to clear out the area of our filming set to avoid unnecessary audio or disturbance from entering our film.

4) We had a problem with our cameraman due to his unprofessional conduct where he accidentally recorded the scenes in slow motion. Luckily we had a solution where the videos would be sped up to cover the mistake of our cameraman from the audience. However, this solution would not fully solve the problem as some of the scenes are still in slow motion to match the pace of the original audio. Next time we would probably have to switch our cameraman to someone else as this can prove to be a really dangerous conduct towards our final film.

REFLECTION:

 I learn how to edit the same and how the different camera shot effect the scene and prepareration of my big project , which could help me so that the project is good and learn from the problems we have on the scene recreation .

editing practice

This blog post contains the work me and my partner did in my lesson on how to successfully edit. My teacher filmed the footage but I edited it together. My teacher also provided the template for the blog post. 

Why is continuity editing important?

Continuity editing includes making sure that items like props or costumes stay consistent from scene to scene. But the more important work lies in editing shots together in a way that leaves viewers thoroughly grounded in both time and space.

Different types of continuity edit 

• Straight cut (cut)

• Eyeline match 

• Shot /reverse shot

• Cutaway / Insert 

*Match cut

Footage

Here is the footage that my teacher shot which utilises a variety of camera angles and movements. The scene is very simple, it involves a student standing up and leaving the classroom. A single shot here might be quite boring for the audience, by editing and combining the shots together we can make the scene feel more dynamic. 

My editing process

We uses canva , because it is more simple to use for short edits and it is easier to add the clips . to edit and we use normal cuts in between each clips we make continuity edit .

Here is my first attempt with some errors. Here is how I fixed the errors…I fixed the errors by cutting the clips in the perfect place so that the clip creates continuety edit

Here is my final scene. Editing multiple clips together made the scene better because…

Reflection How will this tutorial help your project? This helps us to decide who has the best editing skills in our group so they could edit our final film. What was your biggest challenge? The biggest challenge was to learn the How will you improve your editing next time?

Screenplay and script

This is our group screenplay and script . The script was made by Kenzo and Gusde and the Screenplay primarily create by Gusde and the screenplay for the fight scene was made by me FADE IN:

1

EXT. ROAD -  Day

We open with a Drone shot following CANDRA, a devoted man who comes back to his old gang to take revenge on the boss who's wronged him. riding a bright pink princess bike dressed like a woman with a blonde wig down a street until he arrives at a house. 

CUT TO:

EXT. ROAD - OUTSIDE ROAD- DAY

He puts one foot on the ground, creating a thump, and dismounts the bike, showing off a pink sparkly glitter shoe. He then seductively walks his way towards the building CANDRA as the camera moves down, creating a low-angle shot of the building.

CUT TO:

EXT. HOUSE - GATE - DAY

A large, secure, decorated gate protects a big, fancy house fit for a king. Two guards patrol the outside of the gate. The guards then begin catcalling CANDRA, Whistling him and calling him over. CANDRA then walks closer seductively and elegantly.

GUARD 1

Hey gorgeous, how you doin’? 

GUARD 2

Are you lost, little missy?

Candra with a smirk on his face walks close to the guards and kicks one of them in the groin then the other tries to pull out a weapon but CANDRA smacks them over the head with a heavy purse incapacitating them. 

Then we see candra open a door and emerge with the guards outfit.

CROSSFADE:

2

EXT. Compound - Outside garage - day

CANDRA then walks into a garage and sees people working on cars. That could be his escape. He opens a door to enter the main compound then he sees a group of guards drinking relaxing snacks in the Bale/Communal area.

Guard 1 

(Confronting)

Hey who are you?! 

Guard 2 

(arrogant)

Yoo, what do you want! 

Guard 3

(interogating)

Where you headed to?

CANDRA 

(serious tone head down)

I’m the new guy. I need to go to the boss's office. I need to have a word with him

Guard 1 

(enthusiastic)

The new guy doesn’t see the boss on the first day

CANDRA 

(confident Looks up)

Watch me

EXT. MAIN DOOR INTO MAIN BUILDING. WHAT CAMERA SHOT DO I USE?

CANDRA then walks towards the main building and meets a towering guard with sunglasses.

BIG Guard

ID please (smirk)

The Big guard is then surprised as to where he gets the ID and before he can ask him. Candra pulls out a spray bottle of mosquito repellent and sprays the guard in the face. 

CUT TO:

INT. HOUSE - OFFICE - DAY

CANDRA enters the large office of the BOSS as he tries to close the door the Big Guards hand blocks it from closing and CANDRA kicks it and closes the door.

BOSS

So we meet again, Candra. What have you come for this time?

CANDRA then turns his head to see a  Big well dressed man the BOSS

CANDRA

Your head (smirks)

Boss

(laughs maniacally)

The BOSS then stands up from his desk, takes off his suit and approaches CANDRA to confront him. An intense stare down occurs and the camera cuts from face to face then they both dash towards each other with ready fists and BLAM both fists connect knocking them back.

Boss

Finally the moments i have been waiting for 

(laughs)

CANDRA

Tch 

(smiling)

Candra runs toward the boss and swings his feet straight towards the Boss's face . Then the Boss block his kick with one arm and threw him to the side 

Boss

You never change CANDRA 

(laughing)

(pulls out a gun)

CANDRA

(angry)

FADE OUT

(Gun shot)

  Reflection : the script and screenplay is very jmportant because it helps us know twhat to say and the situation in the scene also it gives us what expression should we do to make it more good , the problem creating the screebplay is it is hard to know whag expression to use

story board

 

The Storyboard

This is our storyboard which is created by Kenzo where he created comic strips of how our final project video will unfold. The storyboard is hand drawn mainly by Kenzo and one of them from another members of the team.

The storyboard helped us to plan ahead of time and proved to be really useful as it allowed us to not spend a lot of time figuring out on one scene. It also helps us, filmmakers, to visualize our final story, define technical parameters, and plan the sequence of events. This is my second time doing a storyboard and I think I need some improvements in some parts of the areas such as the clarity of the explanation of some shots. 

screen test

this are the candidates we test to play in our film intro project 

This was good , because we got to see wide choices of actors which have different skills and we had a hard time thinking on which actor should we choose to be in our movie opening .

We decided to chose Candra to play as the protagonist in our opening scene  , in the screen test video , because we have a good relationship with that person and he have many free time to play in our opening scene project .

and we chose Gusde as the mafia boss in our opening scene project , because Gusde is good at deepen emotions which makes it more realistic and Gusde have a lot of free time which we could use to record our opening scene project . 

reflection : The screentest would really help us finding the right actors for our opening scene project , this helps us know which person are capable to work in our opening scene . the problems are most of the people are busy so we cant get the actors .
