Creative Critical Reflection 2

How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as real media text?

My film engages audiences by starting at the end.  The viewers know that Jake is dead and that Kate is on her way home from his funeral, but the film then expands on this happy love story between the two of them.  While there is the sad aspect to the film, it focuses on all of the happy memories and experiences these teens had while they were together.  The goal of the film is to evoke a range of emotions in the viewers and take them on a rollercoaster of feelings. 
This movie would be distributed in a very similar way to other movies in this genre.  It would spend a few weeks in the movie theatres and then distributed to streaming sites and released on DVD.  Since the target audience is mainly teens and young adults, the ability to distribute the movie for online streaming would allow the film to reach more individuals,

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.

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. ...
