‘Piecing it together’ FT

Image
 Hey guys!  I've been working hard on the footage for our horror romance movie, and things are shaping up quite nicely. Decided to throw in some text, you know, like they do in those killer movies, just to give some extra oomph. Tweaked the lighting a bit too, just to hit that sweet spot. And hey, blurring out the background a tad - it's like magic, making the main characters, whether it's the guy or the girl, pop out and grab all the attention. Editing has been a bit of a rollercoaster, though. Wrapping my head around combining different scenes and going through the whole thought process – it's a whole new ballgame. But trust me, the struggle is real, and it's worth it. The challenge is making all these pieces come together seamlessly for our horror romance masterpiece. It's like weaving a twisted tapestry of suspense and bizarre charm. Every cut, every transition, it's all part of this intricate dance to keep the audience hooked. That’s all for today!

‘Scenes emerge’ FT

Image
  Hey guys! So me and Jenna have been working hard on building scenes. Most of the time we have to repeat or fix a scene because it didn’t come off how we wanted to. Jenna is the main actress while I stay behind the camera. Jenna tends to show and enhance the emotions that need to be there. We have yet to find a male counterpart. We may just find a friend to pretend to be the guy for us. Since we don’t have the guy yet we’ve been just filming the scenes that only Jenna needs to be in to build the story.  We're mapping out the locations, thinking about every detail, from the mood-setting lighting to the killer soundtrack. It's a crazy journey, and we're loving every minute of it. Our passion for this project is off the charts, and we're ready to bring this twisted tale to life on the big screen. That’s it for now guys!

‘Selecting music’ FT

  Me and Jenna are knee-deep in this epic journey of curating the most chilling yet strangely romantic soundtrack for our movie. It's like, imagine a mixtape that sends shivers down your spine but also makes your heart race, you know? We're on the lookout for those tunes that will set the mood just right. We're vibing to eerie tunes that give you goosebumps, making you question if you're alone in the room. And then comes the challenge of finding romantic songs that somehow fit the bizarre charm of our story. It's like piecing together a puzzle where each track has to enhance the peculiar connection between our characters. We've got this eclectic mix ranging from haunting ballads to edgy love songs that'll make your heart skip a beat. Jenna's got this knack for matching the music with the scenes, creating a symphony of emotions that'll keep the audience hooked. Picture a romantic interlude intertwined with the suspenseful notes of a dark melody – it...
