Drama

 Drama is one of the most popular genres in film. Many filmmakers use the drama genre when presenting emotional, conflicting, or extreme scenes. Drama can end in both happy and sad situations. For my film I would use drama to portray a conflict between the two main characters. For example if actor #1 gossips about actor #2 then this leads to a potential fight later in the film. Additionally, drama can be seen through dialogue. The dramatic progression of a character can be seen best through their tone and actions. I prefer drama movies because they create a suspense. Usually a drama film leaves viewers at the edge of their seat wondering what will happen next. Some factors in the genre drama can be sound and lighting as well. Drama movies and plays often have dramatic and dark lighting to showcase the rising problems.  These films have successfully drawn attention to the issues by taking advantage of the topic/interest of the subject. Some Drama films include.. parasite, la la land, lady bird, and moonlight. Many dramas also follow real life scenarios. This is often why people enjoy them so much. The actors play a huge role in drama. Their emotion and presence has to be believable to the audience because they are the main subjects in the genre. After researching drama I have learned the main things are plot, character, thought, diction, spectacle and song.

editing but sick

 For the last week I was sick so I was not in school. We have a group chat for our project where my group mates would tell me what was going on so I would not be completely clueless. I was not really on my phone because of how sick I was because I was like passing out and stuff so I was basically bed ridden. When I finally felt a bit better I tried to do some work but then I got sick again. Now I am finally better so I am writing my blog and my group is helping me. We were learning how to edit, all watching youtube videos on how to edit but we did not know how and it was not simple at all. We also tried many different apps and finally found a good one. I am thankful I did this project with a group because I would be clueless on my own. My group helped me so much. I do not know where I would be without them and every person is very smart. Being sick from school makes me feel as if I have been in a coma because I come back and everything has changed. I always miss important things so...

  While planning everything, I realized that my original idea was not realistic. I did not time everything correctly so now I was pressed for time. The original idea of having an action movie did not really appeal to me anymore because of the circumstances. Even though it sounded really fun, it would have taken a lot more work, time, and planning. This meant a new genre, luckily we researched many genres and I had a cool idea. I knew I wanted to have a theme like a decade theme, I just did not know how to make it a story. Sometimes I will have a creative block where I sit there unable to think of anything. When it finally opens up, a ton of ideas run through my head and my mind goes racing a million miles an hour. I thought maybe I could do action still, but just with three characters. Primarily, I wanted it to be a really cool action opening if I were to do one, I did not want to have it to haphazard. I kept thinking and thinking about oh how could I make it have a cool theme wher...

film review

 The film process was very interesting and long. It feels like a weight has been taken off my shoulders.   I had many obstacles to overcome, but always found a solution even if it took a lot of thinking and some help from my friends Jenna and Jade. The whole process of making this final task really caused me to appreciate moviemaking more. It is fun but extremely time consuming and often very stressful, especially as a beginner. I did learn a lot. I learned that no matter how hard it is, you have to persevere and keep trying to find new ways out of tough situations and things like this take hard work and dedication, yet it is worth it in the end. In this project, I perfected my filming and editing skills and also exercised my creativity. I practiced shooting from different angles and trying new things like panning the camera. I learned how to add in music and cut it. I also became more familiar with using imovie just overall. When you have to do it by yourself, a brightside is...
