What elements (Conventions) of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have? For this project we chose the thriller genre and the conventions in this movie help build suspense for the audience.

Hi camination! Welcome to my last production blog regarding my final task! After reviewing Lyne's remarks on our film, Katherine and I made the necessary adjustments. We are extremely grateful that she could assist us. We both feel a great deal of gratitude for her feedback since it truly means a lot to us and we would help her too if she needed it. The scene with the cake and our use of a knife in the kitchen were our first edits. Lyne was right; we agreed that we should eliminate this scene out of all the ones to shorten the movie.

We have filmed for two days overall but today I will only be talking about the first day. We began filming February 14, 2024 after school. On this day we wanted to shoot all the scenes that Santiago was in since that was the only day we could see him. We started by setting up everything he would use in the scenes (markers and paper.) We had to explain to him that all he had to do was draw on the blank piece of paper. It took us a few tries for him to actually draw something that wasn't just scribbles so we ended up helping him. We drew multiple different things that were simple doodles of things like rainbows, cars, trees, and animals. For Santiago to know what to do we had my mom help explain to him since he is just a toddler. Although we had to redo many shots because he would get easily distracted. We were able to get some pretty good shots that we wil...
