For question 3 and 4 of my CCR I will be answering the questions as if I'm calling one of my friends to talk about my film opening " Fallen Rhythm ". Here is the script for question 3
[Phone Rings, Friend Picks Up]
Me: Hey! How’s it going?
Friend: Hey! Good, just chilling. What’s up?
Me: So, I’ve been thinking a lot about Fallen Rhythm lately and how the process has changed since I first started.
Friend: Oh, nice. What do you mean?
Me: Well, when I first came up with the idea, I didn’t really know exactly what I wanted it to be. But as I kept working, it all started coming together. I did a lot of research on flamenco and its emotional depth, especially the idea of pushing through pain. That really helped shape Triana’s character and how I wanted her struggles to come across.
Friend: That’s cool. So, you focused a lot on research?
Me: Yeah, and then when it came time to plan, I got really into storyboarding and figuring out the pacing. I wanted that fast-paced opening with flamenco shoes, a red skirt, and then Triana entering the studio. So I had to figure out how to keep it dynamic but not too drawn out.
Friend: Sounds like you had it mapped out pretty well.
Me: Well, I tried to be prepared, but things definitely changed once I started filming. One thing that I had to adjust was the lighting—it just wasn’t giving me the vibe I wanted, so I had to tweak that .
Friend: Yeah, that’s always tricky. Was that the biggest challenge?
Me: Honestly, no. The biggest challenge was definitely managing everything within the time frame. It reminded me of when I worked on the music video assignment, where I had to balance everything from timing to making sure the visuals matched the pace of the song. This time, though, I was also dealing with the difficulty of filming the dance scenes and keeping everything in focus, especially with the fast movements.
Friend: Oh yeah, I remember how you had to adjust a lot with that. Time management was an issue then too, huh?
Me: Exactly! And, also, filming the dance scenes, I kept struggling with not showing up in the mirror. It was so tricky to get the angles right without accidentally showing myself and this made me lose so much time because I had to keep reshooting.
Friend: Yeah, that sounds tough! But did the blogs help with managing it all?
Me: Actually, yes. The blogs really helped me stay on track. They forced me to break down the process into smaller pieces, which made it easier to focus on what I needed to do . It kept me on top of things, so I wasn’t scrambling last minute.
Friend: That’s actually a good way to look at it. So the blogs kept you organized?
Me: Yeah, exactly. Even though it felt like a lot at the time, they made me think ahead and helped me get everything together in the end. It made the whole portfolio process feel more manageable.
Friend: That’s awesome. You’ve definitely grown from it. I’m really excited to see how Fallen Rhythm turns out!
Me: Thanks! I can’t wait to show you. It’s been a lot of work, but I’m proud of how it’s turning out.
Friend: For sure. Let me know if you need anything!
Me: Will do. Talk soon!
