The title is the most important element to really tie everything together. If you do not have a title then the movie isn't really a movie.
This is why we have taken so long to come up with a title. We had an idea which is the number on the back of our main characters jump suite but the only problem is that we really did not put the back of the suite in the only scene he wears it in.
This brought us back to the drawing board. We had some different ideas and we narrowed it down to "Nameless."
This is because the whole movie is about him escaping from a mental institution where he had no name or anyone who cared for him. He was treated like an experiment and was just a number to everyone. Now even though he has escaped he still has no one which leaves no one to call him by a name, so it is still as if he had no one which he does not.
I have been trying to record the voices and place them in the film, but it was harder than I thought.
First I couldn't figure out how to work with Garage Band. I downloaded it to my Mac but one I had it I tried recording and it would not work. Then all of the filters would move and whatever I recorded changed and it all ended up erasing.
Then I finally got the hang of it. I was able to record everything but I did it with a filter and after listening to it all together I ended up not even liking it.
Now I have to record again and ask my friends to help me which I will finish this weekend and then finally put everything together.
This is what I have so far.
Okay so far we do not have any credits because we were not sure where or how we were going to put them. But we were thinking I class and we thought of putting them in the beginning of the film. Our idea for writing them is to write it them in the dirt.
Now the only problem is that Carlos tried doing it in his backyard and it didn't work because the dirt is too dry. He then tried in another place but the trees roots did not let him carve into the ground. He is going to go to a park today and try to do it there hopefully it works if not we will just need to go somewhere else.
But our idea is to write it in the dirt and then blow it away for it to erase. What we are picturing really matches the theme because all of our film os set outside in the dirt so it will look great out there.
This is what it will look like.
Like I mentioned in my previous post we have finally finished filming!!All thats left if the editing process and the voices, which are an extremely important element to our film. The voices he hears in my opinion are what gives the most meaning and set the perfect mood for the whole film.
So far I am not very sure who will be playing the parts of the voices but I do have some people in mind. By this week I will have them done for sure so that the video can be completely ready. I am also trying to finish editing as much as I can this weekend so that my main focus can be the voices.
The most important factor is that I need at least two people hopefully one male and one female who can really portray the parts of voices whom schizophrenic people actually hear. They need to sound scary while older and serious all at the same time. tomorrow I will talk to my friends who I think will do a great job in this and see if they'll helming me out so that we can wrap the project up.
