Final Task: Our Movie

Our final task was to create the 2 minute opening to an original movie. This was by far our most difficult project so far. However, it was also a lot of fun to see how it would turn out. Doing some real acting scenes and actually creating a movie concept was so fun. We did run into a few problems though. Our original movie concept that we first picked happened to be already made into a movie so we had to start from scratch. When we created our new concept, we knew it was the perfect match for us. We went through the process of researching thriller movies to find different conventions that were common amongst them. Then we planned but then re-planned when we found our new idea. Next, we began to storyboard. Storyboarding was a bit of a tough process for us. There were a lot of scenes to plan out and draw. We had to do some of it over the phone which made the drawings different. Especially since only one of us can draw good. Then, we began our filming process. We started filming on the beach. After that, we filmed for about four more days. We edited as we went but officially started to edit after the fifth day of filming. In between these filming days, we also had a peer review where we received feedback from other classmates. Some of our filming days were dedicated to reshooting and re-editing.
