  Hola (we’re trying to keep our Duolingo streak going)! I am very happy to see that you have decided to join us on our journey through the pre-production process yet again. Today we will be discussing our plan for the coming weeks, as to ensure that filming goes off without a hitch. Below you will see that we have divvied up our plan into five different categories, as to allow for a more straightforward representation of what we intend to do. Participants:     In order to ensure that the participants and each of their roles for this particular project are clear, I've broken down each of their roles below: *Actors- Aja Masri as “‘Kaitlyn “Katie” Hara”’ Jordyn Minnis as “News Reporter” Ashley Scanlan as “Rachel Pewt” Richard as “Police Officer” Filming- Jordyn Minnis Aja Masri Editing- Jordyn Minnis Aja Masri Ashley Scanlan Directing- Jordyn Minnis *When it comes to our official actors, it is likely that we will proceed with our current selections; however, they are still tentative

Planning Blog: "Screen"playing to Our Strengths

Hey there! In today's blog, we've created the screenplay that we will be basing the entirety of our short film around. We can definitely say that this task was nothing "short" of a challenge since we needed to make serious considerations regarding the plausibility of our shots, as well as the different forms of editing and dialogue we wished to incorporate. I truly believe that screenplays are essential to the foundation of any short film, given that it will provide a basis for which the entire film can then be further developed. In the case, that any of the scenes we outline end up being too difficult to execute, my teammates and I are given at least a general idea of how else we can proceed, seeing as we know what is to follow. I hope that our screenplay will give you an insight into the minds of its writers and a glimpse of what is to come. Enjoy! Screenplay: INT. BEDROOM - DAY An establishing wide shot is used to show RACHEL lying perfectly centered in their bed.
