For my CCR's I am going to be doing a podcast to start with. I have m own mics that I am using and my brother will be the second person that I am going to be conversating with. We both have a distinct sense of humor so the conversation of the podcast will flow even though we will both have scripts. I am going to try to make it interesting because as I mentioned a while ago I tore my acl, and tomorrow I have knee surgery.
I had to add that, I've been waiting for a while to use that joke, A trend isn't over until I do it I guess. I am going to record both CCR's this week with the help of my brother. For the second CCR I am going to have my brother come into my room recording and I am going to be laying in bed with my helpless leg propped up and he will say for a dollar answer these questions. I will answer these questions in bed yet while also adding inserts of clips and sound effects. As unfortunate as it is that my leg is like this I am going to incorporate it to make things just a little more interesting instead of boring and sad.Monday, March 17, 2025

All the things integrated into the project were all used separately to work together to create our production now of course. So for the film I really had to get creative. Basically, we used our phones for everything! I found some cool free pictures and videos on Pixabay to set the scene, and recorded some rough sounds and voice bits with my phone's voice memos. When it came to filming, yep, phone again! I even used the screen as a light, which was surprisingly effective. Then, I used Soundboard Tuna to grab some sound effects to make everything sound more interesting. Finally, I put it all together in Adobe Premiere Pro, which was where the real magic happened – editing, syncing the sound, adding effects, all of that fun stuff. We also used my own mics that i’ve had for a little fun of my own, but overall I think our production definitely turned out how we wanted it for the most part.

The second half of the CCR's I am going to be doing something like Billy On The Street. Its almost like an interview in a way where a man walks through the streets of New York and other cities with a microphone and a huge camera asking people questions in exchange for a dollar Billy On The Street. I like this idea for the question because i can add my own spin to it and make it unique in a way

So the second question for my first CCR is, how does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text? As I mentioned before for my first two questions I am going to be doing a podcast and I listed the conventions that I am going to be using and/or challenging. My product will engage with audiences through humor and almost through a conversation with the listeners. I am going to be speaking directly to them along with my cohost at the same time. The podcast reflecting the film opening can engage audiences by also offering a behind-the-scenes look at the process. It would dive deeper into the project, scriptwriting, filming, editing and sound design, featuring the discussion of the production itself and after. This allows the listeners to understand the challenges of filmmaking. To distribute it as a real media text, the podcast would use the school's website and popular podcast platforms like Spotify and Apple Podcasts, ensuring that more people had accessibility.

Alright here we are editing…! we’ve finally finished the filming and we are putting everything together. Luis is going to add a lot of the things to the editing itself because he’s had very wonderful ideas of what to add like sound effects and I suggest the music to add, it’s eerie and definitely will go well. The editing will be very well thought out because that’s where a lot of the magic happens, the actual film isn’t where everything come to life in my opinion it’s when everything is put together and all the little details and final touches are put in, now that’s where the life it. Although the most tedious though, it’s all so important and we’re hoping to create a really good production.

So for my first question I am going to be going with a podcast. Most podcasts start with a intro then moving on to the main content and then an outro. I plan on introducing myself as someone who always does podcasts and has already established their name in this social atmosphere, introducing myself to the audience as they already know me saying a slogan of some kind. Obviously this one will be interview based so for that format there will have to be another person which I will be using my friend for and using the convention of the podcast being conversational between me and whoever is interviewing often a cohost. The audio will be clear as I do have my own small mics that we will use. Using another convention of a podcast is that I will have background music to kind of set the mood, something like this Background Music. I will also add sound effects to match with the conversation and the question being asked. Challenging a common convention of podcasts, most are made without a script and are freely spoken. For this project and to stay on task and sound clear and concise while still answering the question fully, I will be creating a script for me to read from. This does not exclude the use of humor as it is a very common convention that is often if not always used in podcasts, I do think that I am funny person and it would be a shame if the listeners weren't able to hear my jokes when I am still answering the given questions. Podcasts can provide a platform and build a community around the topic being spoken about providing a safe space for the listeners. The depth of the conversations can dig deeper into possible issues or relating to social groups in a friendly relatable manner. This could also help promote certain ideas and/or concepts to the listeners who may not be educated or fully interested in the topic being spoken about. The interview provides insight on the details of the production and helps the listeners connect with what's being said even though they may not relate they are able to grasp an understanding and grow an interest on what is being spoken about. Some of my favorite podcasts I am going to put below are some that I hope to emulate in my own way.

Production pt 3
Sooooo… we haven’t been able to film again this week because of our busy schedules, we are going to go and buy blood for the rest of the scenes this week unfortunately we weren’t able to film again this week because well we all had something going on. But AHH sadly earlier last month I tore my acl and partially tore my meniscus with other injuries to like every other ligament in my knee playing the sport I loved just so much! I’m not going to let this stop us from filming though because our group chemistry is just way too good for anything to stop us now we’ve come too far we got this. So we’ll just take it one week at a time and do all we need to do and do it right!!

For the film we planned that everything would be rather dark including the colors of our clothes so everyone that was in the film itself had to wear dark clothing to match the majority of the films lighting and theme.
