Genre Decision Blog

 We finally came to a decision. It took us days to finally agree on a certain genre. The genre we are doing is Drama. The process was kind of tough. First we had to figure out which genre is easier to do. Comedy was automatically eliminated because we all agreed that it's very hard. Horror got kicked out after that because usually in horror movies, you need like abandoned houses, moving dolls, etc. We just didn't have those resources. So then there was Action, Drama, and Thriller. Akiel wanted to do Action, but Lela and I didn't want that. There was simply no point in it. It was boring, and we didn't have the resources if you ask me. Where were we going to find a gun, those cars, etc.? Even if we did find one, I'm pretty sure we couldn't use one in a movie. Yes we could drive, but it would cost a lot of money for us to find a road to shut down so we could chase someone. It was 2 against 1 so Action got eliminated. Thriller was going to be the one, but we couldn't come up with an idea. It's like we had writer's block. We easily came up with something for drama since we've watched a lot of movies. We made sure we had the resources and everything.

  What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?

In our film “Life for life: A losing game” we plan on incorporating all of those and many more to produce the complete and versatile drama. The surrounding element that directly relates to our movie is the deception and anger caused by being done wrong by others. What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like? The element of betrayal and deception is what I like the most. Being deceived is something almost every individual has experienced and can relate to. Our goal is to make our film interesting, breathe taking, and more importantly relatable in some way. No matter if the relationship is small, any kind of relation grants a diff

Production Blog: Final Task

 It's finally over!! Boy was this journey stressful. We didn't do everything we wanted to do, but it still came out okay. We know we put our all into it and that's all that matters. We had to do a LOTT of trimming. We honestly didn't even do all of the scenes because we didn't think that it would be so long. We cut 4 minutes into 2 minutes and we didn't use all the scenes. Here's our final task though, I hope you enjoy!!
