For the Zenith project, also known as the ultimate freestyle project in Film, we were given freedom to create any project of our own choice. For me, I choose to do an experimental film. I decided to do this because I’ve never got to make an experimental film as a junior since I joined Freestyle in my Senior year and I had some ideas in my head that I wanted to try. Some of these ideas were ones that were sitting in my phone note for years, waiting to be brought to life. This was a new challenge as I worked individually and I was trying something new such as using props, different color lights, and unique shots. But it was also very fun to work on, and it felt like this was something I wanted to do in Film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-production<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the left is the schedule I made when I first started this project. We had check-ins with Mr. Taylor every Friday to update him on how I’m doing based on the schedule I made. The one in the middle is the shotlist I made during pre-production. I crossed them out as I filmed each shot so that I know which ones to get next. Some of these I never ended up actually filming but the ideas I had for the shots I can get. I think doing this helped me stay organized. The picture to the right is the fake flowers I got during pre-production as props.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This picture of the hand was the original idea I had back in 2021. This is a screenshot of a rough video I took with my phone. The red liquid on my hand was red food color dye. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I first started editing, I organized all the videos into different files as shown on the left to make it easier for myself to find clips when I needed them for each scene. I had to work around a lot with the audio, especially the music to make it flow with the footage I had.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
