Hi again. Well, we are getting close to the end. Wrote a script – check. Filmed it – check. Edited – check. Written 3 CCRs – check. This is the last CCR. I now have to spend this weekend filming and editing my 4 CCRs.
I wanted to share with you the concept and script for my 4th CCR ( integrating technologies—software, hardware, and online). It will be a director’s cut which is where we can give some behind the scenes decisions that were made.
CCR #4
Screen: DIRECTOR’S CUT
Davis talking to screen: Hey, I’m Davis Rop, co-director of Admitted. Welcome to this behind-the-scenes look at our film. Today, I’m breaking down the technologies we used in the making of this project.
So, let’s first talk about Hardware!
Screen: HARDWARE
Davis speaking into screen: Okay before getting into hardware, I need to share that the final filming of our project was done by Miles Marti. He is a college student studying film and happened to be down visiting one weekend. He helped Alessandra and I out by coming to film us. Since we were both in the film, we needed an extra set of hands. We filmed all our past projects with an iPhone so this was a step up. Miles used:
Screen: alternate between images of camera and accessories

Voiceover: Miles used a Canon EOS R – which sounds and looks fancy. He explained that it would produce sharp footage but that it was really all about the lens.

Voiceover: First, he used a 50 mm prime (1.8f). This is good for close-ups and emotional shots. Great for the Davis gets crushed shot and the Alessandra is worried and anxious close-ups.

Next up is the 35mm prime (3.5f).

Voiceover continues: this gives a more natural feel when we needed a wider shot like when Alessandra and I were sitting with our laptops together.

Finally, Miles used a 24-105mm zoom (f4-7.1) lens when we needed flexibility like when we were on the move walking through town center.


He also used a Feiyutech AK4500 stabilizer for smooth tracking shots and a tripod to keep things steady.

With all the raw footage, we started to edit right away. Alessandra on her Macbook Pro and me on my Macbook Air.

Davis talking into screen: Next comes the editing software we used. We worked with iMovie for most of the main editing. It’s simple and reliable and we already have used it many times in the past.

Voiceover: We did decide to use CapCut for our split screen – because we wanted to try it out.
Voiceover continues: Finally, we used an online resource for our copyright-free music on Pixabay (Acoustic Labs) that worked perfectly, and it was the final touch we needed.

Davis looking into screen: And there you have it. How we merged hardware, software and online technologies to create the film you are about to see.
