Project Selection- My Decision

I have chosen the film project. I feel that i have more skills needed in filming than writing a magazine. The film project also interests me more because i could use a drone to film the short movie with a stable film. I also have the resources to edit the film. The main factors i chose this project is because i think it would be a more fun thing to do with friends and create a meaningful film. I would say the genre of my film will be either a comedy or action. I am working with one other person. I have the skills of filming the film and editing it. Hope is really good at writing and we could work together to make a script.

Project Selection- Magazine

I would select a magazine project because it would be interesting to interview people and learn new things. I don't have a lot of experience with journalism but i do photography sometimes and i could write about travel experiences. Drone pictures are really cool and are really hard to take pictures. It would great cover pictures or examples. I can fly a drone and edit quality pictures a skill needed in journalism is pictures, and taking them. I know this project would include a lot of interactions with other people, such as interviews. I think the only challenge making a magazine is organizing all the information to fit the pictures and overall magazine theme. Overall it would be a fun learning experience. I would definitely expand my skills on typing and creating stories.

Project Selection- Film

I would want to produce a film because i think it would be a fun interactive project with friends. From all the skills i learned in media studies i would be able to produce a short film about a realistic genre. Watching films in class, i learned about different camera movements and filming tips. This would be really important to know how to do when filming my own short film. Learning about sound will help me when i am picking my background music, and dialogue. Dialogue has to be set up right, the conversation has to make sense with the plot. These aren't the only skills needed filming, but two important ones that interest me. I have never filmed a movie, this would be the first time i am learning something and making a movie. Because i have never filmed a movie before, this would be a challenge to film this. Along the way i plan to learn new skills and learn from my mistakes.
