Intro Blog

 Hello my name is Nachera Fenelus and I am an 11th grade student. I am 17 years old and I have three sisters of which I am the oldest. I am Haitian American, and both my parents are from Haiti. My favorite colors are pink and purple. My favorite things to do outside of school are hang out with  friends and family, listen to music, watch YouTube videos, movies and tv shows on Netflix or Hulu. My favorite YouTubers are Chy the Greatest and Noah Jacob TV. My favorite genres of movies and tv shows are horror, drama, romance, and mystery. I also do hair, and I am learning how to cook and do acrylic nails to get my license to be a nail technician. My favorite food are hot wings and my favorite drink is Sprite. My favorite restaurant at the moment is Crafty Crab because I love their seafood boil. My favorite quote is "dreams don't work unless you do" from John C. Maxwell. Someone I look up to is Maya Angelou because she is a very strong woman who has battled many hardships such as being sexually abused and raped at the age of eight. She grew to become one of the most remarkable women in my eyes she is definitely someone to be remembered. She inspires me and helps remind me that the the world may not be perfect and people aren't always kind but there is always room for change for the better. Despite everything she had endured she was such a kind-hearted, positive, and loving person. My favorite subject in school is history because it is the most interesting of all subjects to me. In my opinion, history is one of the most vital subjects in school because knowing our history is crucial so that the mistakes that were made in the past are not repeated in the future. My favorite actress is Taraji P. Henson because she really gets into character and plays the role, her passion for acting is evident. I wanted to take AICE media studies because it sounded like a fun course that I knew I would enjoy. I know that taking this class will help me appreciate the media even more, especially since I love watching tv and movies. My plans after high school are to attend college where I will major in law, afterwards I will attend law school to get my degree to become a lawyer.

Production Blog-Music and Problems

I was supposed to record scenes 5 and 6 this weekend but due to the weather I was unable to.  It was raining all day on Saturday, so I did not record the scene that day because the roads were slippery and I was prioritizing my safety. Then on Sunday, my parents weren't available to film from the passenger seat that day. And my permit requires me to be accompanied by a driver who is at least 21 years old in the passenger seat while driving. So I hope that I'll be able to film scenes 5 and 6 some time this week, maybe Thursday or Saturday I'm not quite sure yet. I'm just trying to get these two specific scenes filmed as soon as I possibly can be I do believe that they'll be the most difficult to film. I was also trying to film scene 7 on Friday but I couldn't because I needed to move the couch to in front of the tv. But I couldn't because the living room space was pretty crowded with just large boxes so I decided to hold off on filming that scene until this sp...

Title Research: Insidious

The titles displayed during the opening sequence include the name of the studio and production company. Next the film displays the actor names, film title, casting by, music by, costume designer, edited by, production designer, and director of photography title. The next titles shown are the produced by, executive producers, written by, and directed by titles. The image of the boy sleeping in bed is prioritized. The image of a demon's face is also prioritized. Images of their living room with moving boxes is also prioritized. Then images of the stair case is prioritized.  An image of a baby's crib in a room is also shown. The image of the boy was one of the first images shown, and was prioritized probably because he's going to be victim or a main character. Then prioritizing the demon's face reveals who the villain is and that there may be people getting possessed in the movie. The image of their living room with the moving boxes is probably to give the audience an idea...

Production Blog-Filming

In my previous blog I got a majority of the props I need for my film. I was only missing a picture fame and I finally got it over the weekend. So let's rewind to last week, when I filmed scenes 1, 2, 3, and 4. Scenes 1 through 4 Ashlynn, the older sister, only wore one costume. On the other hand Rena, the younger sister, changed costumes in scene 3. Filming the first scene went pretty smoothly overall. Scene 2 took a long time to record because we had to restart multiple times to reshoot. In scene 2, my sister and I often had to refer back to the script. Scenes 3 and 4 were pretty easy to film and didn't take too many tries. One of the biggest problems I faced while filming was trying to avoid the director from being seen in the mirror or showing the camera. My sister who helped me with directing also had this problem where it was hard to avoid being seen in the mirror. Like for the title slide background with me in it, it was supposed to be a over the shoulder shot. But this w...
