Sarah.J Media studies P.1

1. The social group or issue that is  in my film represented a young black boy having a flashback of his past life and the flashback showed him being arrested by a black police officer arresting him roughly while his friends were with him as witnesses. So this scene shows the issue in life and it shows the challenges that a young black man goes through. The sound for our film was a very good decision because it goes with our film. Since the film is a drama/crime film you can see and hear the action and since this is a flashback you can see why he is the way he is and how he feels and how the sound goes with it. The credits through the video are very distinct it shows everything and my partner did that. 2.Since they make good films, our production company was selected. We chose the write production company because we wanted a successful film. we considered as we selected our favorite drama/crime films.  

3. My production skills throughout this project have come a long way. Honestly, when we were told about this project I wasn't confident because I didn't know anything about filming but once I started taking notes, doing blogs, the storyboard, script, and shooting schedule I kinda got the hang of it. The weeks I had for this project every week I had to work on something new so I was progressing and learning every week because one week was a script, another was storyboard, next week rough cut, another weekly blog review, and another shooting schedule, and then filming and editing so I learned and did something every week and when I made a mistake I improved my self.  The process I learned about making films is to first know what your film will be about, plan everything and stay organized because you can't make a film and not have a plan, topic, or organization. The planning of my film was good because my partner and I were communicating well. My partner and I decided on days

 My production, as well as that of my partner, is  I wouldn't say it simple, but it's as challenging as it gets because my  and I have similar viewpoints when it comes to our  film. Our progress has not been easy, but as we have grown closer while working on our film, it's become easier for us to collaborate and communicate with one another. And now that we're more at ease, we won't be afraid to tell anyone.

 For our opening scene, since we changed it to during the day, I feel like we should still do the sound of suspense, and also in the scene when are running were going to play a 21 savage song or something else. There will be sound effects for some parts of the scene and for the lighting we will edit it on we video.

 The casting consideration and choices that I and my partner have are Naheliah, Ashley, and we are considering Jassen. These people are in my first period for media studies. We decided on them because they fit the characters for our film. We feel that Jassen can play Calvin the main character and Naheliah and Ashley play the two friends that are left behind when he dies.
