Health/ Safety
I don't really have any dangerous prop to worry about, bit quite a bit of shooting will be happening near roads, so we will all be as careful as we can. I guess it helps that my mom is also a registered nurse, in case anything happens.

We are still in the middle of a pandemic, so we will be wearing masks as much as possible while being out and filming. I have yet to decide if the masks will be apart of the costume or not, but we'll get to it on the day of.

We Started Filming

    Today we started filming for our music video. My partner and I planned to start filing over Thanksgiving break, but things came up on both of our ends that prevented that. We headed down to a park on the beach in Lauderdale by the Sea, and we got to work. Both of our moms were there and offered to help us film, but we didn't need it at the time. The first scene we filmed was the one scene on the beach, where one person was sitting In the sand staring at the sea. We filmed the shot a couple times, to get a feel of how we wanted it to work before we filmed it seriously.

We decided to film the shots of us walking down the street together, laughing and tal

Genre Research: Maleficent Mistress of Evil

Image
     As Maleficent is seen as a very powerful camera, low shots are often used to indicate this. During the movie, Maleficent flies through the air a lot, and they follow her through the air by using tracking shots.Establishing shots are used in most movies, but in Mistress of Evil, the establishing show off the beautiful worlds created for this movie. The score of this movie captures the grandness of its classic roots, and reshapes it in a way that represents the movie's tone and setting. There are 2 main storylines happening throughout most of the movie, and crosscutting is used to show them occurring at the same time.     The costumes in this movie are very intricate and complex, as they involve both royal, medieval clothing, and more fantastical elements. The lighting varies throughout this movie, but a prominent feature is the darker lighting, which give a mysterious and distrustful tone. The makeup and prosthetics are used to further chance the fantastical themes of the film.
