The End is In Sight

We are nearly done with our film! Being in the final editing stages is such a relief after the craziness this film has brought. From multiple plot changes and confusion to losing our entire film and having to start over it has been a wild ride. We have begun doing peer reviews and getting feedback from people like our friends and parents. With only a few notes that Lola, our main editor, had gone back and fixed, The Crash is almost complete. This project has been so fun and truly advanced my film making abilities. This includes everything from filming to making the storyboard. I have been much more hand on with this project than I feel I was in my AS level projects and I have loved it. I am truly going to miss this class when I finish this course.

The only final things left for the other aspects of this project is the website and postcard. Lola has sent me her draft of the postcard which I had some notes on. I suggested she add a border and one more additional photo to back up the content. I also reminded her to add the social media links that I had created for our film. Once she does these and anything Jack wants to add then the postcard will be done. I cant wait for you to see it! As for the website it is entirely done, I completed it just after we finished filming. I only had to add pictures from filming. I will also add a link to the final film once it is done being edited. Overall, I would say the website was one of my favorite parts about this project. It allowed me to be creative and create something more than just the film, I loved it. 

Well this is my last blog before you see all of out final work so I hope you enjoy!

Critical Reflection

Link:  CR Google Doc How do your products represent social groups or issues? A social group or issue represented in my products is the Lgbtq community. Our main character, Jack, is a gay man with the film featuring him and his boyfriend. Our film however does not entirely focus on Jack’s sexuality, I believe this even more strongly represents the social group of the Lgbtq community because it helps reduce stigma and normalize seeing gay couples on the big screen. With the story being largely similar as to what it would be if Jack had a girlfriend instead of a boyfriend it brings awareness to the true normalcy of Lgbtq couples and the struggles they experience similar to everyone else. This detail of Jack being gay is not in the focus so much so that this detail is not featured anywhere in the postcard or website. This furthers the idea of how creating no special focus on Jack’s gay identity strongly represents the social group of the Lgbtq community. There is no example of discriminati

Group Blog: Introductions

 My group is me and two of my classmates, Noura Attah and Macy Martin. This is a different group than I worked with for my commercial. Noura was in my previous group, Macy was not. Our class is large and Noura and I didn't even realize Macy was in it, but when we realized we invited her to be on our group. I think we will work well together and have fun at the same time. Noura and I did a good job on the commercial so I am confident it will go well again. I have also had success working with Noura on many other projects, in many other classes. I have never done projects with Macy, but she seems like a hard worker and reliable partner. Noura and Macy are both good friends of mine and are academically achieved. We are all fans of Olivia Rodrigo, whose song we are using for the music video. We all even plan on attending her concert when she comes to Florida in April! This fact will make it a more fun project for all of us. We have chosen the song "brutal" by Olivia Rodrigo,
