Starting The Final Task

 My name is Suzie Louis, I’m in 11th grade and I'm 16. I think it’s crazy because as I’m reintroducing myself I remember my first blog. As I was reading it over I was talking about how much I was looking forward to for the rest of 2020. It’s already February of 2021 and I feel like time has flown by so fast.  I have been in my Aice Media Studies studies class for a little over half a year and I have learned a lot so far. I’ve done a lot of filming projects to advance my knowledge in the media film. My favorite lesson so far has been about Audiences and Institutions. We didn’t do a film for it, but it was the most interesting to write about, and we even got to do a practice essay for the Cambridge exam we will be taking at the end of the year. It is time to start our final project, for the end of the year. It’s going to be a long drawn out process to ensure that this project is going to the best possible. For my final project I am choosing to work with Fatima F. She is in the same Aice Media class as me, but she has a different teacher. We have been friends for a long time, so we have multiple experiences working together. We also worked together on out lst film project, and it went well. I think it helps that we’ve worked together because we have learned from our mistakes and can improve when it comes to out next project. Since we have known each other for a while our parents are ok with us filming together. We also live really close so it won’t be an issue when it comes to letting up. I chose to film with Fatima, because we relate on a lot things, and we have similar ideas and concepts when it comes to creativity. I also feel as though it would be fun to work with someone else. We also get along really well.

Intro to Aice Media Studies

 My name is Suzie Louis, I’m in 11th grade and I just turned 16 2months ago #cancergang. I’m the middle of 2 siblings, and older and a younger brother, they irritate the living life out of me but I’m not sure what I would do without them, they’re my only source of entertainment. I'm a very loud person, not so much vocally, but personality wise, I love to have fun and make the best of situations good or bad. I enjoy watching lots of Disney plus, eating, watching Tiktok’s and lounging around. Since Quarantine I’ve become obsessed with Marvel movies, I’ve rewatched the Avenger movies once a week, and at this point I’m reciting lines from memory. I’m trying to find a new hobby, and I’m thinking about doing nail art, I’ve seen lots of videos online and I want to try to learn even though I know it’s going to be difficult. As far as this year goes, I’ve spent the last 6-7 months indoors which absolutely sucks, but I’ve made the best of it. This month I got my eyebrows micro-bladed for the...

2nd Location Filming Blog

Image
 We talked about the process at our first filming location. Now I am going to discuss our second filming location. We went to my partner's house. Where we filmed the other half of our opening sequence. We started as soon as we arrived at her house. We had just previously left the park. The lighting no longer mattered because we were filming the rest inside. We checked for or props. All we needed was a hammer and notes My partner supplied that at her house. Next, we did touch-ups. We also did outfit changes. We did this because we wanted to make it seem like it was a different day in the film.  We went over the script for the other two scenes to make sure we had it down pact. Filming at my partner's house was easier than the park. We didn't have to refilm that much. Maybe about 2 or 3 times. Since my brother who played Jackson wasn't in the next two scenes it was much easier. It was more difficult to film at the park with him. He wasn't a problem anymore. After we fi...

Planning Storyboard for Music Video

Image
For the storyboard, my partner and I came up with 2 separate halves of the storyboard and put them together below. Just as in my last storyboard, I am a terrible drawer, but I did try my hardest on my drawings. I drew the top half, my partner drew the bottom half. I will start by explaining that we want to start our commercial off with us being in the park and then moving to my partner,  Fatima's house. We establish the setting of our first location, in the story board, being the park. I also did a drawing of the next part of our music video, us having a picnic at the park. We have decided to incorporate props with the idea by having a picnic setup, with the blanket and basket, and well even be eating food/using it as a prop. After we have our picnic we will do the other half of our music video in another location. I We will be filming ourselves heading to the other location, walking and talking like normal friends do. At my partners house we will start our other half of the music ...
