Genres I Would Like to Research

 The three genres my team and I would like to research are true crime, comedy, and mystery. My team and I chose these 3 genres because we are unsure about how we want go go about our film. Crime thriller is our top one. This is because there are so many crime/ cartel movies out that we could get inspiration from and it wouldn't be too hard to find something to do along those lines, but we could also make it a comedy. There aren't many crime movies that are comedies but my team and I were talking about how we could make it funny. One idea we had was making it like a reality TV show where they have the side interviews or the main character goes off to the side and has their own thoughts nobody else could hear. The last idea we had was mystery. This was actually a random one to throw in there. We were thinking we could start off with a death and have detectives/cops solve the murder and have flash backs in between while solving it. We were also thinking about doing drama. My team and I are definitely not actresses or actors but we can sure try our best. I do not know which way we would go about doing drama so it is something we would have to talk about. We are still not 100% sure which genre we would like to go with. We are going to each look up a genre, review it, and talk about it together before making a choice and filming. We are doing this so we don't realize in the middle of filming that we want to change the genre or that it ends up being something else. My team and I are very excited to start this new film and can't wait to see where it takes us.

Let's Talk

As seen in the last blog, you know that my team and I were unable to film. We were unable to film because Pedro didn't feel well so we just cancelled the entire day. Since we cancelled everything there wasn't much for us to do so we waiting until we got back to school. Today we were able to meet back up in class to talk about what we needed to do. In class we talked about why we cancelled since Pedro didn't tell me why and what we did during that day. Since we have a long period we took a break in between to do other things. Once we realized the time, we decided to talk about the upcoming plans for our film. The part that takes us the most to come up with is the date. Since Nicole and I have jobs we have to coordinate our schedule, especially our weekend schedule since we are usually jam-packed. I don't know much about Pedro's schedule since we don't talk much outside of school. We know for sure Pedro doesn't have a job so he shouldn't have a problem wit...

Gente Research (Comedy)

     My group and I are also researching comedy. As much as we want action, we also need to laugh. A comedy would also be a lot easier for us since we can just be ourselves. Comedy movies have a lot of close- ups, pans, long shots, and zooms. Close ups allow you to lead your audience into a more intimate setting. You can literally bring your audience closer to the action. And it emphasizes the importance of what we see. But as the push continues, it all breaks, letting viewers know they're watching a comedy movie.Long shots  give an overall context to the scene and usually lets viewers know that what we’re seeing right now isn’t the whole picture... until it zooms all the way out. Static shots, or stand still shots, build suspense. In comedy movies it allows room for the characters to correct themselves or something, Almost like a "wait for it" moment. Zooms emphasize expressions shown throughout the film. Props used in comedy films range from nothing to everything- ...

Research Blog for Music Video

My partner and I are making our music video on “Let Me Love you” by Mario. Usually in R&B songs like this one, the audience would see a storyline. The audience sees the conflict or whatever is happening in the story and the singer trying to get the main character's attention or singing to the main character, unless they are the main character.   In R&B videos, the singer, if it's a male, is usually seen wearing baggy jeans and baggy tee shirts. It's a casual outfit that was very popular in 2000's fashion. In R&B videos, the  women tend to wear basic 2000's fashion, jeans and crop tops, button ups, berets, off the shoulder shirts, and others, all paired with denim, since denim was so popular back then.   The lighting varies in videos, but it depends on the vibe and scenery of the video. Most videos have dim lighting, but some scenes have bright and direct lighting. Other videos can be completely bright or dim, it all depends on the mood.  The ac...
