Group Blog

 Welcome back! Today I will be talking about my group and why I chose to work with them for this final task short film. For the commercial and the music video, I filmed with the same group I will be filming with for the short film. I am super excited to be filming with this group because they are good company and are very hard workers. The people in my group are Marlo, Omnia, and Harley. Omnia has been a good friend of mine since middle school. She is so creative and talented and never fails to be there when I need her. Marlo, I met as a freshman and we became friends instantly. My group and I really enjoy each others company and compliment each others personalities so well. As for Harley, we became friends this year. She has been there for me through so much and always has the best ideas for everything. All of these girls have a very strong work drive just like me, which makes us a really good group. My group and I are also a very diverse group of people, making us generate so many ideas and topics that coinside nicely together. I am really excited to work with these girls because it is always a fun time talking to each and every one of them. My group all gets along very well and are able to subside any disagreements or arguments that can occur. I am most excited to have to hangout with them in order to film this final task short film. My group will all have a very big role in creating this short film, so we plan to divide the work evenly and overcome it together while having fun. My group and I have already been brainstorming a bunch of ideas for this short film. Thinking of what roles each of us want to do for this short film has been talked about a lot. My group and I will start figuring out what type of short film we will make. Thanks for tuning in!

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...

In specific, dramatic sound effects were used which is very common with...

A Comparison of 12 Monkeys & La Jetée

Heyyy blog welcome back. Prior to researching these two films I didn't realize how similar the two storylines were. I was distracted by the use of still images compared to video sequences to notice the plot. After watching “La Jetee vs 12 Monkeys… which is better?” I see that both films explore the idea of time travel and the consequences for your actions. La Jetee does this through the use of images to tell this provoking story. When creating our own short film we are able to take these to films and use them as inspiration. We want to incorporate more complex ideas that leave the audience thinking. I think our goal of our short film is to really throw the audience off track almost like a plot twist. We could maybe even incorporate the idea of a natural disaster just like La Jetee and 12 Monkeys. After watching the two films we also took the video style into consideration for our film. The La Jetee images are black and white so the film has an older, more dark feeling to it. For th...
