Location

8th street and tuttle- I thought his would be a good spot to film, but I chose otherwise because every street had streetlights I needed at least one street that we could turn down in the car that had no street lights to create an effect that I wanted the audience to see.

I eventually chose the new street in Bradenton that connects 301 and Lockwood ridge. On this street, on the main road, there are street lights but turning down the side road of 39th street it has no streetlights which made it perfect for the film.

I did not scout any other location due to me knowing how I wanted my film to go, I changed my film from drama to horror  because all my characters were not able to be in my film. ALl other locations that were of interest didn't meet my standards.

Casting

Beatriz Garcia

One character in particular in my film, Jessica,  is very laid back, she didn't do much, she was just at peace with everything. Beatriz Garcia fit the description for this character and I did not think that there was a better person to film as this character than her

Vivian Garcia

There is a haughty character in my film by the name of Tiegan. Tiegan is the one who things she is the boss of her sister and can tell her what to do just because she's older and feels like she has authority over her sister. Vivian was the perfect person for this because in real life she is not cocky on a day to day basis but she can be.

Jocelyn Surber

The little sister of Tiegan in the film, Jenna, she's like a normal little sister, hates it when her older sister tries to belittle her because she's younger, but she never speaks about it. Jocelyn fit this best, not because she gets bullied by her older sister, but the way she way she read the lines of the script for this particular character made it where no one else could top it.

*************************************************************************************

Above was the original cast of my film, due to the schedules of them and myself, they were not able to be in the film like originally planned. I changed my script around to where only Vivian was able to be in it and another character by the name of Amariona Rivers. She fit the description age wise, she is 11. She played the role well. When my script altered that now made Amariona play the role of Jenna and Vivian still played the role of Tiegan.

Above was the original film schedule, due to the schedules of my actors I had to go by what they were able to do therefore it delayed my film. Below is when we filmed and learned the lines in the script.

12/16/17: 7-7:30< On December 16th, 2017, my actors learned the line, we took one day for them to get familiar with their lines so it would be easier to film on the day I decided to film

12/17/17: 8:30-9< On December 17th, 2017 was filming day, it took us about a half hour to film and took me about and hour and a half to edit the film by myself.

Film Project Planning #5

Deuces 

The production was presented at the beginning of the film Flavor Unit Entertainment, and Jamal Hill Film. The main characters were presented: Larenz Tate, Lance Gross, Meagan Good, Rotimi Rick Gonzalez, Lala Anthony, and Antonique Smith. There were a couple film techniques used, such as a shot reverse shot, voice over, close up, fade out and a pan. At the beginning of the film there is a voice over and screening that implies something bad has happen, but it gives nothing about what the film is on. When you go a little further than 2 minutes in the film you are introduced to more of what the film is about. This film was nominated for the Pinkenson Award for Best Local Feature, but it had no wins. The films budget was $22 million  and it grossed $45 million
