Short Film Research: Unleaded; Thriller

 Hello and welcome to or welcome back to my blog! In todays blog I will be telling you some Thriller conventions I noticed from this short film.


  • There was a lot of close ups, there was a walking scene where the camera moved with them as well as pans
  • There was a faint thriller sound in the back and the bell from the door to the gas station.
  • It started with a black screen and for it to be a gas station it was very dark. It was also dark outside. The characters were wearing sweats and jackets
  • I really liked the fact that main character was talking on the phone but the robber thought he was talking to him. I found that funny.
  • I didn't really like the story line for the main character in terms of his background.
  • It was really good for seven minutes and the plot twist at the end was unexpected.

Setting Up

 Hello and welcome to or welcome back to my blog!! In todays blog I will be telling you about the process of me setting up my room for filming. As stated in a previous blog, part of my final task will be filmed in my room. Today I had to make sure my room was clean for filming. I wouldn't say my room was dirty, but it was very unorganized. There were clothes all over the floor and things weren't where they needed to be. The first thing I did was my clothes. Since most of them were dirty I just separated them into piles and washed them. When everything was finished I was able to put them all away. Next I made up my bed. I need to get into a habit of making up my bed and this was a great time to start. In the story board of my final task there are many shots of one of the characters on the bed. It might look bad if they are sitting on a bed that isn't made up but when we starting filming we might change our minds and make the bed look slept in. After that I vacuumed and moppe...

Production Blog: McDonalds!!

 Hello and welcome to or back to my blog! In my last blog I talked about what my group members and I did that Sunday when we went to the park. In this blog I will be telling you about what I did last weekend for the music video.  One of the props needed for the music video was some sort of food. When I got the Annabel’s house the only thing I saw was goldfish but her mom was willing to bring us to McDonalds. When we got to the McDonald’s we went into the drive through. I ordered nuggets and fries because I was hungry and the food used in the video we we’re gonna eat. Her mom offered to get us ice cream so I also asked for a caramel Sunday. The only thing needed for the video was the bag. It just needed to look like there was food in it but we thought might as well get food too. After getting back to the house I first tried filming the scene where he drops off the food from the inside but the lighting was off. The sun was behind him and because of that it made the scene appear ...
