Today, I gonna talk about my experience of making “tribe films”.
First, I came up with a good story. This sounds silly, but it’s the most important thing. Without a good story, your film is nothing. I spent a few days thinking about what I wanted to tell, what message I wanted to convey, and who my target audience was.
Then, I started writing the script. This was a tough process, but I found that the more I wrote, the easier it became. I focused on creating interesting characters, a compelling plot, and a satisfying ending. It took many rounds of writing and editing until I felt it was done.
Next, I started to gather my resources. I needed a camera, a microphone, and some basic lighting equipment. Luckily, I already had a decent camera and microphone from my previous projects. For lighting, I decided to keep it simple and use natural light as much as possible. I asked my friends to help with different jobs, and they were glad to participate in my project.
Once I had everything in place, I began filming. This was the most exciting part of the whole process. I tried to capture the essence of my story through the lens, paying attention to every detail, every scene, and every emotion. We filmed in various locations, each adding its own unique flavor to the film.
- In the first scene, I tried to get a close-up shot, but the lighting was tricky, so I had to adjust the camera settings multiple times to get it right.
- For the second scene, I needed a wide shot to capture the environment, so I had to find a good spot with a clear view. The audio was a bit of a challenge, but I managed to get a clean recording after a few takes.
After filming, I moved on to the editing phase. I used Adobe Premiere Pro to piece together the footage, added music and sound effects, and did some color correction. This was a time-consuming process, but it was also very rewarding to see my film come to life.
Finally, after many weeks of hard work, my film was finished. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. It’s not perfect, but it’s a reflection of my creativity and hard work. This whole process taught me a lot about filmmaking and storytelling. It’s amazing how a simple idea can turn into a full-fledged film.
I hope this blog gives you some insights into the world of filmmaking. It’s a challenging but fulfilling journey. Just keep practicing, and you’ll get better and better. Remember, every film is a learning experience, so don’t be afraid to experiment and try new things.
