My Group Blog

 Welcome back!! I am going to be talking about my new group for the year and all the things I am looking forward to doing with this group. My new group this year consists of Jenna, Carleigh, and Sofia. I have known these girls for a good chunk of time now and am confident that I am going to be able to let me creativity flow when I am around them. I have known Carleigh for about 8 months now and we instantly clicked. She is my bestfriend and we are always hanging out with each other whenever we can. This will be beneficial to work together because we will definitely be hanging out to film and have plenty of laughs and overall have fun together. She has a similar work mentality as me and will be able to get thing done when needed. As for Jenna, I have known her for over a year now and she is also one of my closest best friends. I am constantly with her and always hanging out which will also make filming easier and will make it easier to communicate to each other and give creative ideas and feedback to each other and the group. I have known Sofia for a little less than a year and she is a very sweet person who always includes people and is very funny. She will be great to work with because she will definitely come up with creative ideas for our project and will be able to excel the group with ways to make ideas better. I am always with these girls and consider them my closest friends so it will be fun working with them and seeing the cool project we will be able to come up with. I will get together with them soon to discuss ideas for our project. Talk to you super soon!

Production Blog- The Final Stretch!

Hello and welcome back blog. It is the final stretch and the complete process of making this short film is now coming to a close. It is a sad realization but at the same time I am so beyond proud of how hard me and my group worked and well as all the time and effort we put into this short film. The group finished filming and now the process of editing has begun. It took three full days of filming in order to get all the scenes for the short film. When Jenna put most of the scenes together in imovie, it came out to be a six minute film. There was so many scenes that needed to be cut out and shortened that she is still working to shorten it as we speak. We used the time in class to brainstorm different sounds that should be used throughout the short film. It was pretty difficult coming up with sounds to use because nothing truly fit the scenes to perfection. While coming up with that, I had a classmate named Jack peer review the short film. At this point the short film was no where near ...

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...
