Group Blog

 Hey there! The people in my groups names are Marlo, Omnia, and Harley. I wanted to pair up with them for this project because they are very hard working and they have a strong work drive just like me. Ive been friends with Omnia for 5 years and I know her so well. Ive been friends with Marlo for a year and shes the sweetest and has always had my back. Ive been friends with Harley for 2 months and she has been so sweet to me and has made me so comfortable to talk to her about anything. They are all so sweet and I love being able to completely be myself around them. We are planning to film at my house but if anything happens we will film at Harley's house. We are intending to film a Taylor Swift music video. All of us live pretty close to each other which makes it more convenient to be able to film outside of school. By pairing up with these girls, I know that there will not be a person that will be doing more or less work than anyone else. We each have our own work style and skill that will be able to help us make this commercial. I believe this project is going to bring us closer and be able to all get to know one another better. We all get along very well and we are able to have disagreements without creating arguments. My group and I have similar classes so we all know the type of workload we have and can work around that in order to find time to plan and film. I can definitely tell this project and year is going to be very fun and our creativity is going to be able to flow nicely. We are excited to make this "You belong with me" Taylor Swift music video. It was nice talking to you.

Short Film Research: Party to Murder

  The mystery short film I watched was Party to Murder by Strobie Studios. The actors gathered together at this old style mansion to play a game of murder mystery while at a masked party. Will they play a harmless game or is the reality of death knocking on their front door? The director included a plot twist which is what ultimately made the short film a good watch. At the beginning of the film the director used upbeat music and close up angles of a couple dressed in fancy attire. The upbeat music explained the mood of the couple, as they were laughing and excited for their upcoming party. However as the car approached the home the music took a turn for the dark. The music began to speed up and the musical notes selection became very ominous. A big tactic used in mysteries especially murder mysteries in plot twists. Plot twists leave the audience highly surprised making it the best way to recapture a viewer's attention. Nobody wants to sit through a movie where every scene is easi...

Short vs. full length film research

  BLOG 1: Comparing 9, the short film, and the full-length movie  Hey Blogg, our group will be discussing the short version of the film "9" and the full-length version along with comparing both of them.  Short film version: None of our group members had ever seen this movie and seeing it for the first time it was different, unlike something we had ever seen before. First off, there was no dialogue throughout the whole film. This causes us to pay even more attention to what was happening throughout the film to better understand what was going on. For this specific short film, the plot was less obvious and required higher thinking skills as all that is given are the scenes. We understood the plot at the nearing the end of the movie. Our interpretation of the plot was that in a desolate setting that looked like a landfill site, the film begins with scenes of 9 crafting objects from scrap metal. As the title screen fades, 9 is found sitting around the remnants of a broken w...

My Critical Reflection

  Critical Reflection Link Critical Reflection A level Media Studies How do your products represent social groups or issues? My short film, Shattered Bonds, represents the major issue of mental health struggles that follow being left out in relationships and friendships, that so many people suffer from in the real world. The film highlights the idea that when you feel a sense of hurt in a relationship/friendship it can cause a mental trigger for coping mechanisms such as violence or self harm. Shattered bonds brings awareness to this through the plot. Throughout the film, there are scenes showing one of the teenage girls being left out of the group and feeling a sense of hurt in the fact that nobody is including her in their conversation or activities. These feelings of hurt then revolve into resentment in the film as they do in the real world. These feelings can lead to violence against others as well as self harm. In the film, the girl being left out resorts to killing the girl t...
