AICE Media Studies

                    Welcome back to my blog reader ! I have come on to this blog to inform you dear reader that after doing the genre r esearch which allowed me to take a look at the common camera angels, movement, shots, sound, editing, Mis-En-Scene , examples as well as learning which elements I did and did not find appealing about the genres of horror, thriller, and dystopian. After careful consideration, I have come to the conclusion that the genre of thriller is that one that I believe will best suit my film. The reason as to why I choose th e specific genre of thriller is beca use I found it to be the most suitable for pitch as my film deals with a young adult who wins a riffle ticket but does not yet know what that will cost her  therefore leading me to be in dire need of   a genre that conveys suspense and mystery as well as uneasiness that lea ds the audienc e to go through feelings of anxiety, fear, anticipation thus making them be at the edg e of their sea

                 Welcome back to my blog reader!                 Here are the two pitches for my film:                             . Pitch 1:  A group of friends can’t wait to go to the carnival that is coming to town , but it turns out it is nothing like they expected.              . Pitch 2:  A young lady wins a riffle ticket , but at what price?                   . Pitch 1: T he first pitch consists of a group of friends who can’t wait to attend the carnival that is coming to town, but it turns out to be nothing like what they signed up for.

Further, the large quantity of actors/ actresses this film requires would also brin

                              Welcome back to my blog reader! As you know dear reader, when I was in AS level media studies, I worked with a wonderful group that taught me comm unication and collaboration skills which I highly value and hold dear now as an A level media studies student. Moving forward from that experience to now, I have decided that this time and for this project I am going to challenge myself further and I'm going to  work by myself in order to see how far I can go and push myself for the b etter. Now that you know that my group consists of only myself, I would like to talk to you , reader of mine, about my experience of filming and editing as well as what I wish to improve this time around. In my previous projects, editing and filming are skills that I have been exposed to more and more as time went on due to those experiences. By giving myself this opportunity to work on a project by myself , it can serve as a way of showing me how far my prev

Further, I truly enjoy editing due to that it is something that brings me happiness and it is something that I find comforting. Something that I find beaut iful about editing and photography is that it allows you to turn something as
