Critical Reflection short film

 1. How do your products represent social groups or issues? My product was meant to represent an issue that may happen to people, usually teenagers would experience this. It represents the themes of friendship, trust, and inequality. Each teenager comes from a different background and has had different experiences which shape their goals and decisions. Each character in the friend group has other issues which can include financial status, family problems, and more. The story also touches on issues of privilege and social hierarchy. Some clues require access to knowledge or resources that only certain characters possess, highlighting disparities in education and opportunity. The film subtly critiques how social status can impact decision-making and influence group dynamics. As the teenagers grow closer to their goal, their journey reveals the dangers of curiosity and obsession. The treasure hunt, once an exciting challenge, turns into a test of moral boundaries as they face betrayal...

Production Blog: almost there

Image
   Hello Bloggers! Welcome back to another blog. We are so exited. Tomorrow we are finally posting our Short Film. We have worked so hard on this project. We laughed. We argued. We made up. We had so much fun filming it. We also loved editing it because we saw all the bloopers and scenes of us laughing. It was so cute. This was a great experience. We are all so sad that this was our last time filming together. We loved this class so much. We bonded over this class. After we were done with everything and we had it ready to post, we had to celebrate that we were done. So we all went to a fancy restaurant and had dinner as a reward for our hard work.  This was a great experience. Thank you all for going to this journey with us! i hope to see you again soon. see ya later bloggers!

Production Blog: website

Image
 Hello bloggers. I hope all is well.  Today we will be talking about our new website for our own movie. As I've mentioned before we were tasked with a website and a post card with our short film. As we have just completed our post card, we had to plan on how to work on the website. The website task is a little longer than the post card, so we have to start it early. We planned to go again to Starbucks but we didn't want to do that again. What we did was we stayed at my house and worked on it. At first we were struggling to find a good website template but after a lot of time looking we finally found something nice. We found something that matches our theme of the movie. So after we found it we began to fill up all the information we needed for the website as we had to include a summary, facts, date of release, actors, photos, etc. It took us quite some time to work on it as we would get distracted easily. But even with distractions we worked through it and got it done. It turn...

Production Blog: post card

Image
Hello bloggers! We are back with another blog and today I have exciting news to provide to you guys. As you guys may think that this blog is about the video, well your wrong. This blog will be about a new addition to this project which is the post card. As we were assigned to make a short film, we are also assigned to make a post card and a website. So to get this started we all met up at Starbucks once again. We love going to Starbucks since it's our study spot and it also helps me focus a lot. Anyways we all sat down and decided to work on the post card. We left the website for another day since it was going to be a lot and we got to Starbucks a little late. So for the post card we had to make sure to add the publish date of the movie. Then we had to include the productions which was JNC STUDIOS. Another information that we had to provide is different showtime dates which we made up. We also had to make sure that the picture in the post card matches the theme of our short film. S...

Production Blog: problem solving

Image
   Hello Bloggers! Welcome back. I hope all is well with you all. In this blog I will be talking about some problems we had during the filming process.  It was a struggle with the filming process. We had multiple complications and even got into arguments. One of the days that we filmed, it was chaotic. It was when we looked up the coordinates and went to the house where Nicholas was thrown in the pool. We had to film the scenes at that house multiple times. Everyone kept laughing. I started getting stressed out because i just wanted to get it over with and move on to the next scene. After so many tries on one scene, we finally got it. Another example was when we were outside and the truck went in front of the car. During those scenes, everyone started getting distracted and having side conversations. It was already getting very dark. So i started getting really frustrated because no one was listening and they kept laughing at everything. After all of this, we all had a co...

Production blog: Filming Among the Dead

Image
  Hello Bloggers! I hope you all are doing well and we are back once again with another blog. As you all may notice the title already, it sounds creepy because today in this blog we'll be focusing on me and my groups experience filming in the cemetery. The fact that we had to film at a cemetery already gave me the shivers especially since it was going to be night time. As we were driving, we were planning on certain filming that we needed and lines that we had to memorize. Once we arrived we were contemplating if the cemetery was open or not but we saw an opening and we took it. We parked the car in this pathway and hoped out. Looking around made really scared because as I have never been in a cemetery before, it wasn't a nice first experience. Moreover, we began to film as we had Ethan who is the dad walk around with a flashlight and act like he was trying to find something. We had every scene down pretty well and got it done efficiently. The only big issue was the lighting si...
