Since we decided to scratch our previous plans for our film opening today we began to film our film opening...again. We decided that our setting will be a house, more specifically, Blake's house. We chose to use Blake's house due to the fact that we had more space and rooms to work with. Also, Blake had the perfect computer setup for our first scene which was a close-up of the hacker typing away. I didn't believe my teacher, Mrs. Marchetti, when she told the class lighting will be our biggest enemy and man was she right. We had to take multiple shots for every scene we filmed to get the lighting right. Next, Blake and a friend filmed a scene involving a hard drive being lit on fire. Well this is what we originally wanted to do but things happen. So as I stated before lighting was our biggest enemy so for the hard drive on fire scene we needed a dark place to film. When we started filming it was during the day so Blake thought of doing it in the garage since it was empty and it would be dark. We had an extinguisher on hand if anything went wrong. Something did go wrong but it wasn't that anything caught on fire, it was actually the opposite. The hard drive would not catch on fire so we needed to think of a resolution fast. Blake went into his kitchen and grabbed alcohol and he was spotted by his mom. His mom did not like the idea of lighting something on fire with alcohol in the garage. So Blake had to compromise and we all decided that the next just as good thing we could light on fire was a cd as we can light the paper that is on the cd without the need for a flammable substance. This turned out great and I have included a video down below that shows the making of this scene to share with you guys.
Next, Darrah and I started working on making a fake official letter from the FBI to show the criminality of the hacking. Lastly, we decided to film the front door as someone is banging on the door while shouting "FBI! OPEN UP!".
