First, we looked at thrillers. I was very intrigued by the elements. As I began thinking I was familiar with them in films I'd seen before. But as I kept thinking back to our pitch I felt that it didn't quite fit. The mis-en-scene is usually dramatic and sometimes gory. There's lots of suspense and anticipation. That's not the mood we want to create with this film. So we decided not to use this genre. Then came Comedy. At first, the elements seem very promising. The camera angles were definitely within our ability. However, when we got to sounds and dialogue we didn't think it would be necessary to make jokes all the time, especially on such a serious matter. I felt it would be too corny for our idea. So we decided not to go through with it.   Lastly, we chose to look at Coming of Age. I thought of this genre because our actors are teenagers. Additionally, the plot of the film had a lot to do with the common theme of Coming of Age movies where characters lose their

        Hey guys, we need the key idea to kick off this final task. The two pitches that we had were completely different.  Pitch 1; 2 College students return home for spring break but something feels off when they enter town. After arriving home they realized what had happened. Pitch 2; A hiker goes on a walk to discover a body, but when they call for help a twisted park ranger comes to their aid. It then turns into a race for her own life. The first pitch is interesting as we can make any twist we want. It is a mystery but can evolve into any twist or plot that we want. It gives us ease with the cast and set along with where it takes place. what I learned from the AS level was that you need to be ready for change at a moment's notice. The second one is great too as it gives a mystery aspect with a twist that leads to a shocking ending. It gives us a setting we can use by Jackson living near a forest and a plot that can have a surprise ending. My vision is to have it simple enough

Shawn is a good partner because he is smart and capable of basic assignments. Shawn is a creative and intelligent student enrolled in the Cambridge program. He is taking a passion in film studies, which is the class Shawn and I are currently enrolled in. I chose Shawn because of his passion for film.
