Final Task: What it Represents?




     The editing process is officially done. We are coming to the end of our journey in this project. We had good times and rough times but we made it through. I never really understood what made us such a great team but I think it makes sense now. We each had our own gifts to bring to the table. We respected one another no matter what. 
    We never really had any disagreements we took all ideas into consideration. Understanding the difference between constructive criticism and being rude was something we all knew the difference between. An overall just coming together as one to motivate one another to continue working and getting through everything together. Putting together the storyboard was definitely our biggest challenge but with me being able to create a storyline the girls were able to draw everything in as long as I had a story to match everything else. We made location changes, design changes, meeting times also changes and so much more but no matter what understanding the value of patience was the best trait that we all exhibited. 
    We understood that there was no time to argue or dispute about anything there was always something to do and we had no time to waste. The girls make great partners and thanks to them this opening sequence will be a huge success. The message we wanted to send wasn't just about health but its a message to everyone who knows their time with a loved one is limited not only should you be cherishing every moment with them but don't think of the bad things and create the best memories you can with the shortest amount of time you have. there is never enough time to do thing things you want but you make do and have fun in every possible way.
    The other part is the biggest thing we raise awareness to breast cancer more than any other cancer in the world. An this film just wanted to bring to light that not only do the pink ribbons matter but the orange ones as well these ribbons represent film just cancer "an estimated 300,000 new cases of leukima (2.8% of all new cancer cases) are diagnosed each year globally”( Medscape). Understanding that there is more than one kind of cancer and that representation of all cancer is a necessity to understand the health system of our society. Cancer has a mind of its own so enjoy one another for as long as you possibly can it may not last forever.

Genre Research: Romance & Drama

Romance is defined by intimate relationships. In some cases, there may be a twist but at the end the main point in films is about the pursuit of love. Romance is not only its own genre but can also be seen in other genres such as thriller, Comedy, Drama, etc. Common lighting usually seen in romance includes high key lighting in which makes the seen more cheerful due to the brightness and warm colored lighting to create an inviting and mellow mood.

Production Blog: Spring Break is Over

      So we are back from spring break today and everything is in order. Although, we did not film and we did not communicate over the break. I could have predicted that but in that time I did text one group member Nishayla and she was talking to me about an idea she had about changing a scene by the pond I'm not to sure what is was about I don't really remember. However, if any changes are to be made then everything will be adjusted so everything aligns properly. That is if she decides to bring it up to the group.       We decided to do icebreakers have discussed our grades and how our break was before getting to the hard work.  In doing so, we came to agreement that things over the break cleared up and the break gave us time to organize our lives to get everything in order. Fortunately we now have clear schedules allowing us time to film. Unfortunately though in the last minute I did happen to misplace my camera and I eventually will find i...
