Day 19

 SHOOTING IS FINISHED. Thanks to Cyrus' brilliant location scouting, we found a great gym that was empty and allowed us to film the project. We took shots from both outside the gym and inside as we had previously talked about how we would start the film. 

This is a capture of the behind the scenes one could say. We ended up using a handheld technique because it represents Aizen's journey and how he is unsteady right now as he has to train and still has a long way to go. With that said though, we did use a tripod that can be seen in the picture above for some of the other shots as we agreed it would look better. In our opening scene we also played around a little with the camera lens and made it blurry as the car approaches the location and then as it slowly comes to a halt, the camera focuses. 

We also followed up with a sequence of training shots in different locations to show the passage of time, we used Cyrus' backyard, our local park's volleyball courts, and the boxing gym. We filmed the "clips" in different tempos because we wanted to show that as the movie progressed, so did Aizen's abilities. and although it is in a short span of time, little improvements can be seen, especially on his push-ups and his speed when he is running.
