Get to know us!

 Let's get back into my blog and get more in depth about my group. I am working with a different group of people than I usually would, but I think it'll be good for me. We can all incorporate each of our own strengths to make this music video the best one yet! We are a group of four and this includes me, Sabrina, Lola, and Michaela. To get into more detail, I've known the first member of our group, Sabrina since the 7th grade. We have gotten really close ever since then and have always stayed in contact. Her personality is great and she is a person you can enjoy working with to make the project fun. Sabrina works very diligently with schoolwork and anything she puts her mind to. She is very determined with everything she does and puts in extra efforts for great outcomes on her assignments. I have always seen how well she works, and have admired her for that. The next member in our group is Lola, who I have also known since the 7th grade. However I was never super close with her, but she will be a great member of our group. Lola does amazing projects from what I have seen and she always helps when it comes to writing. Her writing skills are top notch, which can benefit our group project to a high extent. The last and final member involved in our group is Michaela. I just recently met Michaela in this class but I have learned enough about her to know I would like to work in a group with her. She seems like a hard worker with time management skills and she shows care for school. Michaela also has a great personality and every time we sit together in our class, we always have a good time. Generally, I think we have formed a good group with enough basic skills we need from each other to make the best music video we can. It is important for each of us to put our highest effort into every assignment we have to complete so that we can have an adequate outcome of our overall project.

1. How do your  products  represent social groups or issues? Together, my group and I made a short film about a young girl who gets stalked and abducted. It is meant to be a reflection on the larger social issue of gender-based violence and the widespread anxiety it causes in women. In the video we emphasize the vulnerability that many women encounter on a daily basis, especially while partaking in seemingly harmless hobbies like running, through the protagonist's terrifying experience. In our film, the male stalker, portrayed by me, stands in for the stereotypical predatory male, highlighting the risks associated with toxic masculinity and the objectification of women. Through a realistic and sympathetic portrayal of the protagonist's suffering, the film seeks to provoke thought and increase awareness of the pressing need for societal reform to address these challenges. The film's website and postcard offer further channels for interaction by informing viewers about the fi...

Officially done…With filming

  I'm happy to inform that my group and I have finally finished filming our final video project, and the results are nothing short of stunning after weeks of hard work and commitment. This trip, while had its share of difficulties and learning curves, ended with a victory that well above our expectations.This time around, unlike the first time we filmed, everything appeared to go together perfectly. Equipped with a well-defined vision and an astute sense of direction, we skillfully and confidently maneuvered through the filming process. Simplifying our method of filming was one of the biggest changes we made. We had a well thought-out plan in place, so we knew exactly what kind of material and photos we would need to make our story come to life. With so much less time spent filming because to this newfound clarity, we were able to concentrate on capturing true and emotionally charged moments. Even though we were filming at the same park as before, we took a "less is more"...

Common Mis-En-Scène (CLAMPS) in Thriller: * Dim lighting: The combination of darkness and shadows evokes a spooky and enigmatic atmosphere. * Weird settings: Unusual or spooky locations heighten the feeling of unease. * Unsettling objects: Dolls and mirrors are examples of items that may be used to frighten you. c. Typical Thriller Editing: * Rapid cuts: These add a lot of intensity and keep you on the edge of your seat. * Juxtaposition: Irony or suspense are created by juxtaposing scenes or images. * Slow motion: Delaying some scenes lengthens the suspense and highlights key moments. d. Typical Movies of Thriller: * Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho" (1960) * M. Night Shyamalan's "The Sixth Sense" (1999) * Jonathan Demme's "Silence of the Lambs...
