Creative Critical Reflection Draft #4

How did you integrate technologies- software, hardware, and online- in this project?

Throughout the production, post-production, and marketing of the film, I used Blogger to keep track of my development. I used it as a platform to document all steps of the process for my project. This included conducting my research, posting my shotlist, storyboard, and script, as well as my marketing and distribution plans after posts of the finished product and revisions. Microsoft Publisher was also used to assist in formatting and posting the script and shotlist online.  
To film A Not So Merry Christmas, we filmed with the camera of an iPhone 7. My partner, who was mainly in charge of editing the footage, used iMovie to adjust sound and cut different takes. Phonto  and VSCO was utilized to provide the font text, size, style, and color needed for the job titles (Curlz MT) and text for posters and images (Anton). I also used Adobe Express on the iPhone 8 to edit screenshots in the film and the photoshoot for the marketing plan. The photoshoot was conducted with an iPhone 7. Adobe Express helped edit brightness, vibrancy, clarity, and saturation to make the images more appealing to potential audiences.

Film Production- Script

My partner and I finally developed the screenplay for our film. It encompasses the idea that Santa Claus has done poorly at his job for Christmas and must be fired. The opening scene includes a board member entering a conference room. They proceed to list all the faults of Mr. Claus and eventually fire him, following with Santa's reaction of shock and confusion.
