Project Selection-Film

One project choice for the AICE Media Studies Component 1 submission is a short film introduction.  This project really interests me for many reasons.  One such aspect is acting.  I have a passion for acting and performing.  This project is a way for me to incorporate my interest in live performances to screen.  Another part of this project that interests me is the opportunity to write my own script.  I enjoy creative writing, so it will be a really cool experience to take the words I write on paper and bring them to life on screen.  This project is open for each individual's own ideas and choices which makes it something that interests me.  I do think that this project will be a challenge for me, though.  I think the hardest parts of this project will be the organization of film times and editing.  This project will require people to act in the film and it may be difficult to coordinate a schedule.  I also may have difficulty with film editing.  I do not know how to use complex video editing systems, but I will definitely learn.

Project Selection- My Choice

I have chosen to complete the film project for my Component 1 submission.  I am really excited for the opportunity to write a script and bring it to life on screen.  I am an actress myself so I have experience in this field and I have specific visions for the actors in my film.  I also have made short films in the past so I have experience in filming.  I am not sure what my film will be about but it will be something dramatic and mentally stimulating.  I will be working with Marley Churchward on this project.  We will divide the work evenly and incorporate each of our views into the film.  Marley and I will write the script together and take turns filming.  We will edit the clips together to complete the project.  This project will require a lot of collaboration and compromises if we have different views.  Overall, I am very excited to begin working and I believe Marley and I will make a great team.

Film Project Research 2: If I Stay

The second film opening I watched in research for my was If I Stay. Short Summary of Opening:  The opening of this movie begins with an arial shot of snowy mountains while Mia speaks in a voice over.  She is talking about herself and her family, including her mother, father, and little brother.  The voice over ends and dialogue between the four family members begins.

Mia talks about her cello practices and a boy named Adam, which we learn is her long-distance boyfriend.  The opening ends when Mia's parents convince her to go with them out to the farm to spend the day together. Analysis of Opening:  The film opens with an arial shot of snowy mountains.  There is a lot of camera movement in the very beginning, going across different scenery. The camera then zooms in on one house, which we find out is where the main character, Mia, lives. ...
