 For the shots/angles quiz, I worked with a partner to create 15 shots that told a story of an inanimate object and explain those shots and why they were chosen. The objects I chose were two pens, one black and one red. We came up with the story of the black pen being abandoned by their owner and forming a connection with the red pen. We wrote down the required shots and how we would use them in the story and then filled in the rest of the shots once we had the required ones. We then went outside to take the photos. I think that we did mostly well for the project. One shot, the extreme close up, wasn't framed tight enough so that was one issue that could be improved.

CCR Prep

  Now that the actual film opening is done, it's time to make the creative critical reflection, or CCR. For this I'll need to make two videos that each use a different approach to answer each of these four questions: How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text? How did your production skills develop throughout this project? How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project? I've given it some thought and I've came up with basic ideas ideas for how I want to answer them. This is of course not exactly how I'll express these thoughts in the videos themselves, but it is the core of it. Question:  How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? Answer: The Summer of the Swarm uses a variety of horror and thriller genre conventions,...

Documentary Planning

  From the beginning I wanted my documentary to stand out. When it came time to pick a subject, I realized that given the time frame of two weeks, I had to pick interviewees who were people I already knew and lived close by. I wanted to be efficient, I didn't want to waste time and energy making phone calls to people I've never met who may or may not be willing to be filmed or available when I needed them to be. My best bet was to center it around people from my summer theater program, as they're basically my inner circle who I feature in a lot of my projects, and they all have something interesting to talk about. Working backwards from there, I now needed to decide what these people would be interviewed about.    One of my first ideas was to make it about fans of obscure and independent music, which could've been interesting, but I knew there was something else I could think of that was more... I guess the one word I can think of is special. I thought about the demogra...
