Pitch #1: A teen slowly spirals into a depressive state while trying to hide it from everyone in her life. I would be very interested in making this film for a variety of reasons. I know many people, including myself that struggle with mental health issues. I think this film would be able to raise awareness about mental health, specifically with depression and the warning signs of a depressive state. I believe people around the same age group or people who are experiencing the same issues will be able to relate to the film, and may be more inclined to get help. Additionally, I believe the film will be able to help people realize that they are in a depressive state or realize what specific mental issues they may be dealing with. Pitch #2: A girl falls in love with her best friend only to realize that her best friend is straight. This is also another idea I would be very intrigued in making. Today’s media has more and more LGBTQ+ representation. The boom in representation is so bene...
Today was my second and last day of filming. I am confident that I have completely finished filming my opening sequence. However, just to be safe, I have allotted an extra day to film any additional clips if need be. In the few hours I had available to film, I was able to film the leftover scenes I had from the last filming day I had. As I mentioned in the previous blog post, using a physical copy of the storyboard I created helps a great deal when filming. I like having a physical copy of things; I’ve found it to be most beneficial. It helps me stay on track while filming and helps me to film clips in order, keeping everything organized. This is also extremely useful anytime I need to film any clips again. Due to my decision to film alone, rather than working with a partner or in a group, this does make filming a little bit harder. Although there are some things I do not have to worry about, like disputing over availability to film, there are certain things that are obviously mor...
The song I planned to use in my film is from “Tame Impala.” The specific song is “Eventually.” The writer and producer behind Tame Impala, Kevin Parker, had decided to make his music public domain. In an interview, he speaks about his opinions on making money from music and what it means to him. He believes that getting music for free isn’t necessarily a bad thing. He also doesn’t feel that stopping illegal music downloads is important. He adds that he does feel comfortable making money from larger companies and corporations because “they have money.” This was a huge relief to me, especially after reaching out to multiple artists, hoping to be able to use one of their songs. I reached out to Wallows and Taylor Swift. However, I did not get a reply from either one of them. This worried me because I had no idea what song I was going to use in my film. I began to search through royalty free and public domain music, trying to see if I could find a song that matched my film. I began to...
