For this project I have decided to work with someone. My partner's name is Esther Arisyole, who is in a different class period then I am. At first I was going to work alone. One reason for this is because I rather get all the work done at my own pace. Another reason is that I wouldn't have to deal with group conflict. Such as, deciding what to do for the project or how we should format things. There are many benefits of working alone like avoiding conflicts. In the end I concluded that the cons out weighed the pros in this situation. One con of working aloe is that the work load can be stressful. So splitting it between two people can make it less stressful for both partners. Another con of working alone is that sometimes I forget things and my partner can remind me to do it and I can do the same for her. Although I decided to work with a partner it can have some cons. For example, as I stated before with group conflicts and disagreeing on things. In the end I chose to work with Esther because this project is a lot o work for the both of us. I also know that she is a reliable partner when it comes to projects. I have worked with her in the past on school projects. On those projects she did  her half and turned them I on time. I found that we work well together in term of ideas and work ethic. Working with a partner is the smartest way to go because of the amount of things that are attached with this project. I chose Esther as my partner because I know that she will do her half of the work.

Planning for Short Film

Image
  We plan to film our short film at different locations around the school. The first place we plan to film is on the track. This is where the establishing shot will be and the entire first scene will happen. The next scene will take place in the bully's room, this where the transition to the bully's dream takes place. The bully's dream will occur in the outside hallway of building 5. The final scene will happen in the bus loop. We will begin filming after winter break, January 3, 2022. The day back is an A day so we will try to film during al of our study halls. When filming isn't in process everyone will have on their masks for safety. There will be sanitizer for the cast to use whenever they touch anything. One of the main props will have are the bookbags they have on. Since they are teenagers they will also have their phones. The scene in the hallway will be the first one that we complete because everyone will be in class. As far as costumes, everyone can wear their

Genre Research - Final Choice

Image
    Out of all three of the genres chosen, we decided to finally go with Drama. The reason for this choice is that a drama is simply more flexible than the others. There are so many aspects to a film that can make it be considered as a drama. On the other hand, Horror and Comedy have a big more restraint. When making a horror film, there has to be some element that “scares” the audience. Whether it is actually scary or not isn’t the point, but whether it creates a chilling atmosphere. It just didn’t really seem to fit into the prompt of our short film. We don’t want the audience to be too distracted by “not getting scared” to the point where they miss the message we are trying to send. Comedy was a little more close than horror, but again, it didn’t seem to match our story. The main purpose of comedic films is to have the audience laughing. Another, more subtle idea, would just be to have traces of humor throughout the film. However, why would we want to add comedy to a film that’s m

Genres choices

Image
  We chose three different genres that we believed our pitch could fit into. The first genre we chose is comedy. Our pitch could fit into the comedy genre because of some events that could occur. For example, while the bully is learning from his mistake someone could make a joke. It could also fit in this genre because of its elements and Mis-En-Scene. Such as, the casual costumes and classroom settings of many comedy films. The second genre we chose for our pitch is horror. This pitch could fit into this genre because of the acts of violence within the scenes. Another reason it could fit is because of some common sounds found in horror. For example, screaming; this could be used in our pitch during a scene where the bully is bullying someone. The last genre we chose for our pitch is drama. Our pitch could fit into this genre because the relationship between a bully and his victim revolves around drama. The story line of dramas commonly revolve around high schoolers, which our pitch al
