Pitch blog for short film

Hey blog it's me again!

Today My partner and I will be coming up with an idea for our short film. Here are our two pitches.

  1. A teenager is hired to babysit. The child tries to warn her about evil within the house, however, the evil is the parents who hired her 

  1. A strange guest shows up to a private dinner. The guest is creepy and knows the secrets of
    all the other guests.
     

Both my partner and I are extremely interested in using the first pitch. The idea is not too complicated and could be done. It would also be a horror short, which could be super fun. We could experiment with different lighting, acting, and props. This idea is simple yet surprising, which would make it perfect for our short! 

The second pitch is less exciting for us. Although the creepiness of the guest is cool, it doesn't really stick out to us. Not to mention, it may be difficult to make this pitch for our short as it is sort of complicated. We do not have enough time to establish the characters' different bonds and secrets, so the pitch isn't the best. We would also need many actors and actresses, which could be hard to find. So, this isn't the most ideal pitch. 

With that, we will use the first pitch for our short! I hope you guys enjoyed it, and thank you for joining us!

That's it for today's blog! Karina logging off.

Title Research: Art of the Title Website

 Hello everyone,     Welcome back to another blog! Today, I will be discussing with you our websites on title research. The title design in opening sequences is extremely important. So, it’s equally as important to properly plan. Because of this, my group has made sure to use the best websites to research our titles and title research. The two websites I have chosen for this research are http://www.artofthetitle.com/ and http://www.watchthetitles.com/. These websites are really good for many reasons. The first is that art of the Title website has movies from around the world, which is really good for variety and helps to research broader styles and genres.     Additionally, the site features title designs of film, television, conference, and video game industries. Again, this is very good for a broad selection. The other website, Watchthetitles.com, has over 200 title sequences, along with video interviews, and articles about movie titles. They are both great we...

Comparing Le Jetee, the short, and 12 Monkeys, the full-length movie

     Hey, blog! It's me again, today, I'll be comparing a short and a full-length film for my research. I'll be examining La Jetée and 12 Monkeys .      I watched a video that compares 12 Monkeys and La Jetée , and it discussed how the feature film naturally extends the short, building on the original ideas. The video also touched on how both films explore the inevitability of certain events.  In La Jetée , the short film, the protagonist is caught in a loop, unable to change the outcome. In contrast, 12 Monkeys takes this concept further, with the main character attempting to prevent a catastrophic event. The way time is portrayed in both films is crucial to their themes, and the video highlights how this theme is central to both works. The video also showed me how manipulating time plays a critical role in storytelling. Time travel is a central theme in both films, but La Jetée uses photography to reinforce the unchanging nature of time, while 12...

critical creative reflection

     In this music video I have learned a lot from my groupmate's and technology. The process wasnt easy but it was done. In our music video my group and I decided to challenge the conventions. In the genre most of it follows what the song is saying or shows two scenes but goes back and forth. In our music video we made a script in which we acted out what the song felt like for us. One meaning we had of the song was drifting apart from a relationship and learning to let go, the other was realizing your actions and feeling guilt after. An issue this music video represented was jealousy and how it can come over your actions. The girl (maddie) realized that her friend and boyfriend were cheating behind her back and she took action by drowning the girl. A group this video could affect would be jealous people or people who cheat and lead people on. It could help them to understand how their actions can really affect people from the other side and be considerate. This music vid...
