My Group

 For this first project, I chose to work with Ryan, Griffin, and Nick. Ryan and I have been friends since 4th grade, but we met at first. Recently Ryan and I have become closer and have been hanging out more. In October we are going to take a trip to Sebring International Raceway. I know that Ryan is currently working on getting his boater's license. Once Ryan gets his license, we will be able to go wakeboarding and water skiing on the weekends. Ryan and I were very happy when we found out we were in the same media studies class. When we found out we knew immediately that we would work together. The only issue that Ryan and I had was that we needed 2 more people to join the group. The first person that Ryan and I found was Griffin. Griffin and I had been in a class with each other last year, but we have started to hang out more in school this year. Griffin likes to play tennis. Griffen also likes to hang out with his friends after school. One of the main reasons we chose to work together is because Griffin is very creative and will add a lot of value to the team. The other group member that we found was Nick. I have never been in a class with Nick, but Griffin and he are friends. We are all working together for many reasons. The biggest reason was to get to know each other better and to extend our friendships. Another reason is that we all sit in the same general area, so it is easy to communicate with each other and make sure everyone is doing what they need to be. Overall, I am sure that we will work amazingly together, and we will be able to create some great things this year.

Sound Design

Image
 As a young filmmaker, I was always intrigued by the creative process of putting together a short film. I had experimented in several parts of filmmaking, but one area where I lacked experience was sound design. I had always imagined that sound in a film was simply added in post-production, but I quickly understood that it was much more than that. I immediately realized that sound is an essential component of the filmmaking process and may have a significant influence on the overall quality of the picture. With this revelation, I decided to take on the task of selecting sounds for my current short film production. The initial stage was to investigate and collect various sorts of sound effects that would be suitable for the film. I spent hours going through internet sound banks, looking for the right noises to complement the tone and mood of the picture. Once I got a selection of sounds that I believed would work nicely, I was ready to explore. I immediately realized that the placem...

Critical Reflection

Due to his financial disadvantage, he must eat a non nutritious breakfast and work harder than others. Most people have full racing crews that take care of their cars for them, these cars may belong to a single driver or could be split between a team of drivers. The main character must take care of his car by himself. This is a reminder of the unequal distribution of resources and opportunities in society, where some people are fortunate enough to have access to riches and resources, while others find it difficult to get by. The main characters' dreams represent the luxuries someone of a higher socioeconomic status would have. You can see cars that are worth four to five times the amount of money as well as the ability they get to drive during the night. This is usually only allowed to be perfo...
