Special Place Reaction

What was the place you tried to portray?
The place i tired to portray was a series of memories in my life. It was me and my deceased father watching movies together when he was still alive. He always sat in the same chair whenever we watched movies and tv shows, so that is what i filmed. The chair and myself with a background narration.




What details did you choose to portray about this place?
I portrayed the chair, my reactions, and a background narration. This was to tell my story and my memories.


What changes did you make to your plan along the way? That is, how did your pre-production plan change when you filmed, and what new discoveries did you make in post-production?
During filming i only took several shots, that was it, and i did not look at them to see how they turned out. As a result, my face was not able to be seen in any of the reaction shots. So the next day i went home and re filmed it all, but in production, i liked how my face was unable to be seen until the last shot, because i couldn't find myself in reality.



Name at least one change (or more) you would like to make to your film. Why?
I would like to change some of the audio and visual errors and screw-ups. This would make the entire video a little "cleaner."
