Check Out This Amazing Movie Making

 For the past few weeks in Te Ngahere we have been making movies, we are doing this to show at the film festival. We started off by doing all of our planning, then we moved onto our script. When we started  writing our script, it started off pretty well but halfway through it was going absolutely nowhere so we decided to start from scratch, which turned out to be an amazing idea. Our movie is now about us going to a different dimension and we have to try and get out but we are calling it ‘Back to the future, BUDGET VERSION’ we go outside and get sucked into another dimension and have to find our way out by solving a series of questions! I found this easy because I have already watched back to the future and I found it hard when writing the types of shots for each scene.  Have you ever made a movie before?

Movie Making

Yesterday in Te Ngahere we started movie making. First we had
to get into groups, in my group was Grace, Gail, Imogen and I.
Then we had to read this brief about movie making, which
included 1. Planning 2. Film Type 3. Content 4. Script/Props 5.
Locaition 6. Sound 7. Title and credits, there was an 8th one
but we weren't really focusing on that. Each word had a small
paragraph underneath it explaining what to do. After we had
done that we had to make a google slideshow in our groups we
had made earlier, then we made a slide for each subject for our
movie, so far we have completed our planning, film type,
content, props, location and sound. We only have a few more to
do then we can get all of our props together and start filming
our movie. I did this last year in a different group and we made
a leprechaun movie. Have you made a movie before?
