Schedule and Some Changes

Again, I can't help but remind myself that we are now almost finishing up the third week of the project. What seemed like such a long time is now quickly coming to it's close, and as I am finishing up all that needs to be done before I begin filming I have made a schedule for myself that I will strictly follow. If I work diligently enough, hopefully I will even have some time left over to work on any aspect of the project that needs extra help and just finish everything and make it perfect.

PROJECT DUE!!!













Also I'm making a change to my film. It's not a major one to the premise of the story but it is one that is relevant and will affect the shooting process. So originally, as you know, I wanted to have my character (who by the way I have now names Evie Davis, pronounced like "Eve-E") shooting darts at black, paint filled balloons set up on a blank canvas. This was, actually, the idea that started it all. I had this great shot in my mind where at the end of my film opening, Evie would shoot a dart at her first balloon and color would burst onto the white canvas signifying Evie breaking boundaries and making her mark in the world. However, the more I think about it, I think that this is not something that would read well because the idea was to shoot Evie in the middle of creating art, however if the end of my opening is her only beginning her creative project, it might be difficult to portray that she is making art rather than just trying out some artsy project she found on pinterest. I thought about ways I could get around this like through her clothing or adding shot of paints or her materials on the ground, but ultimately, I decided to eliminate the balloon idea. Instead I know see Evie with a sketch book through the forest taking time off, drawing, and working on her craft. I think this is more realistic anyway and will give Evie a more serious and professional feel (serious and professional about art and creation I mean.) So yeah, this will call for a few changes to shots in my story board but for the overall script and narrative, it won't change too much, because I mean I am still keeping Evie as an artisitc and free character, it is not just a different medium of art.
