First Portfolio Entry

      This is the first entry to an exciting beginning in my AICE media studies portfolio project. I will write these posts to the best of my ability to receive the highest marks on my project. I will work with two others throughout this project, Hayden Jalazo and Abhiram Pinnity. 

    The first aspect of the project that was discussed was the genre of our project. We wanted to do something that was relatively easy to edit since only one of our group members is proficient in video editing. The action genre was definitely off the roster since it requires too much editing. We eventually chose to do the horror/crime genre. We also want to create a sense of mystery in our film to have the audience guess the semantics of the film and to keep them hooked. Our plan for shooting the film is to not use too many cuts and to make the film slow-paced so it aligns with the horror genre. We also want to use dark lighting to further enhance the mysterious environment throughout the film. The plot of the film introduction will most likely be about a murder, but we are not wholly affirmative of the plot yet. All of us still need to do more research on the horror/crime genre and educate ourselves more about the genre to create a higher-quality project.

    I am eager to see how the final product will turn out and I look forward to working with Hayden and Abhiram on this.
