Im Back for The Better

     Its time for my final task of AS  Level Media Studies. I have learned a lot from the projects I have done this year and I am excited to put my skills to work. Over the year, I feel I have progressed greatly academically, and learned how to be a collegiate student. I feel that this will effect my work quality of the final task as I have a better understanding of time management. To continue, my film production skills have improved greatly from where I was at previously. I am slowly learning more and more about how to make a proper, entertaining piece of film. I am looking forward to showcasing all of the new skills I have learned in my final task. Something that I have focused o throughout all of my projects was editing, and I have learned some things in editing that make or break a film. Knowing how to properly edit a film is one of the most important parts of the process. With this year slowly starting to end, I have selected to further gain knowledge on the film industry by selecting to take A level media studies. Much has changed for me since the last time we have gathered. I have started to feel more drawn to the subject of film and starting making film in my free time. I feel that this course is something that will be useful for me to use further in my life. I see myself further continuing my passion in the film industry once I graduate. I have thoroughly enjoyed this course. It has really sparked my interest in the film industry, and I have done a lot of research in my free time about film production. I am going to take this project as a learning experience to improve my skills. However, I will still try my hardest. I am aware that this industry takes lots of trial and error. And with the knowledge I have learned, I am completely prepared to do what it takes to get the best score I can.

Fork in the road

I apologize for not being able to film over the weekend because of my football practice. My football practice schedule conflicted with our filming plans. I had already committed to my football team's practice schedule for the weekend. Unfortunately, my football practice took up all my time and energy. I tried to find a way to fit my football practice and our filming plans, but it was impossible. I didn't want to let down my football team by missing practice, which is why I couldn't film. I know how important this project is, but my commitment to my football team is also important to me. I wish I could have filmed with my group over the weekend, but my football practice had to come first. My football team has been preparing for a big game, and I didn't want to let them down by skipping practice. I am pretty sure my group understands that my football practice was a priority over filming for the weekend. I didn't want to jeopardize my position on the football team by m...

Critical Reflection

  Our short film delves into the intricate dynamics of trust, betrayal, and the complexity of human nature within the context of a suspenseful crime thriller. As the story unfolds, it presents a nuanced portrayal of social groups and issues, particularly highlighting the pervasive theme of deception lurking beneath the surface of seemingly ordinary interactions. Through the characters of the two detectives, we explore the notion of authority figures and the expectations society places upon them. The film prompts viewers to question their assumptions about who holds power and authority, and challenges the conventional dichotomy of good versus evil. The narrative structure of our film offers a compelling commentary on the fragility of trust within interpersonal relationships, echoing the broader societal issue of trust erosion in contemporary times. By portraying one of the detectives as the unsuspected serial killer, we confront the uncomfortable reality that danger can often come f...

Comparing 9, the short, and 9, the full-length movie

Image
  To be completely honest, that has to be one of the most disturbing films I’ve watched in a long time. There was no talking throughout the whole short film. The setting was lifeless and looked as if this animated world had been abandoned. The plot started with  two doll-like figures with some sort of numbers on their back, one being 5 and the other being 9. They end up coming across this mechanical looking monster, it looks like they went for a mixture of a lion and a dog type of design but made entirely of metal. It had bright green eyes and a disturbing roar. This monster proceeds to abduct the doll labelled 5 and uses a green portal device to kill him. The other doll that was labelled 9 was terrified and ran away to go hide. Eventually it comes to the doll labelled 9 find pieces of junk that he puts together to create a torch however, with a lightbulb doll 9 ends up attracting the monster into a abandoned cave like setting, where doll 9 intraps themself on a large wooden p...
