Planning Blog

 Hey welcome back! We’ve started planning for the music video. The music video is going to be shot at My house. We haven’t decided on a date to film the video yet. We are planning on using Marlo’s cellphone to film the music video. We’ve already decided how to split up the roles. In the original music video, the characters are a boyfriend, the boyfriend’s best friend and his evil girlfriend. We’ve swapped out the boyfriend role to a best friend role. Instead of a love triangle, this is now a story about friendship. I am going to be playing the best friend that’s being fought over. Omnia is going to be playing the geeky “good” best friend. Marlo is going to be playing the popular “evil” best friend. Harley will be the director. The outfits are extremely vital to telling this story. Since Marlo will be portraying the evil best friend, she will be wearing jewelry, over-the-top, mainly hot pink colored clothes to signify a popular mean girl. Omnia will be wearing glasses and baggy mis matched clothes to show she is nerdy and shy. My wardrobe will be switching depending on which person she is with. When my character is with Marlo’s, she will be wearing preppy over-the-top clothes and contacts. When she is with Omnia’s character, she will also dress nerdy and wear glasses as well. Props used will be glasses, books, notebooks to write on, and phones. That’s all we have planned for now, catch you next time.

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...

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...
