Teaser Time

Week #5

Our group got together today to work on our Friday Presentation which will be composed of a brief introduction of our film and the teaser trailer we have been working on. I had high hopes and those hopes have been met. We got a lot done and even had time to scout our sites for our next shoots. Ideas were piling up. How were we going to shoot this scene? What angles are going to be awesome? We are continuing to establish and develop our plot and characters. It is proving rather difficult finding a balance of simplicity and creativity that will not go over our heads.

We have been working together very well. Decisions are made smoothly, and we respect each other's opinions in the editing, filming, and directing.

We have all our shots for the teaser trailer and a rough outline has been patched together. We will continue to work towards fine-tuning the editing and also work towards developing scenes for the rest of the movie.

We have decided to name our production group Syncopate Films (after the font), and we have designated roles among ourselves.

Patrick Huynh: Editing/media manager
Brandon Huynh: Plot/cast manager
Benjamin Nguyen (me): Camera/set manager

These will be what we are in charge of, our "specialities." The cool thing about it is not only a fair division of labor, but in the process of gaining knowledge and experience in our field, we are able to relay the what we learn to each other, essentially becoming a mentor to the other two members.

We are still deciding on what kind of budget we can handle. We are speculating it to be roughly around $150 ($50 dollars each). With it we can purchase props and set rigs.
