Brainstorming the Fashion ideas

Brainstorming in Style

Welcome back my beautifuls! In todays blog I will be talking about our group ideas for our moving opening! The first step to creating our movie opening is to brainstorm and think through how we want to approach this project. We sure did come up with lots of ideas, so let's get right into it!

The first thing we had discussed is what genre did we want to do. At first I was thinking using horror as a genre, it seemed like and interesting genre to work with and could be really entertaining. However after some more thinking I kind of distanced myself from this idea as I felt like this genre just wasn't my style and I wanted to do work with something I can relate to more and more to my fitting. 

 After rethinking about doing a horror movie an idea popped up from one of my group members, and immediately became a fond of it! She suggested that we do a coming-og-age movie opening. I think the best way about doing this genre is we can relate to it as well since we are teenagers as well, this could give us a good perspective on the ideas and storytelling we want to create. Now there are lots of ideas that we can talk about when it comes to this genre: 

What kind of mood do we want to create? I personally feel like a more nostalgic and somewhat sadder opening would be

the best as it  could be more touching to the watcher. Creating a sense of loneliness is essential for this purpose, being a teenager can make you feel lonely at times which is exactly what I think we should show, this could feel relatable to watcher as well as sympathizing with the character we want to portrait. Of course I would also think about what if we do a more joyful vibe to it, this could also work, as making the watcher have a more happy and satisfactory experience while watching the film opening can be a positive characteristic of the film. To create such a mood I think more acting would be required as well as lighting would also be a an important factor to create that warmth feeling.

There are some pros and cons with working with this genre so let's take a look into that as well:

Some pros of this genre would be that it doesn't require difficult technical setting and effects, a coming-of-age genre is about real life so the setting could be done at one of my group members house. So the set up would not be difficult. Moreover, this genre as I mentioned is more relatable  which could help when constructing the opening it self, it can also be more appealing to a bigger audience since everyone was a teenager at one point.

Some cons to this genre however is creating the right mood is essential, since the visuals are close to real life without extra effects the mood created is what makes the film opening itself interesting to the watcher. This can be more challenging and potentially could ruin the entire opening if not done right, but I guess that's a risk we have to take. 

Well that is it for todays blog! Stay tuned for more ideas and processes, and be sure to comment any ideas you guys have!

  Movie Review In Season Welcome back my beautifuls for todays blog post! A truly classic movie many of my fashionista lovers probably heard of and enjoy "The Devil Wears Prada" even the title gives me goosebumps! Today I will give a review of different angles, movements of camera, and transitions used throughout the movie. The movie follows our lead Andrea (played by famous actress Anna Hathaway) as she experiences working in the fashion industry. Let’s start in the beginning, just when we get into the film there’s is an important scene where the boss of fashion runaway Miranda arrives to the workplace. She is shot by the camera in a low angle which really emphasizes her importance of a character right in the beginning of the movie. By using a low angle shot Miranda appears intimidating and confident , the audience can already get the chills form her! She if often portrayed from a low angle throughout the movie indicating her importance at the Fashion Magazine company. ...

CCR  Welcome back my beautifuls in todays blog I will be discussing my reflection I had regarding the project! To do my reflection I decided to draw an animation to illustrate and do a voiceover, I also included some slides to condense some information. I think the animation is very cute and kind of an attention hook. It took some time to finally complete it as I first drew the animation and timed each frame so it matches the voiceover. Then I edited the two together using Capcut. I think it turned out pretty good. You can view it below: Then below you can also view the transcript as well as the questions I have answered: Question 1: How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? Hello, my name is Gyongy Liposits and I am the creator of the film opening eighteen. , it follows the main character a girl, Gigi, who is just turning 18 but does not yet feel ready for adulthood. this is a coming-of-age/slice of life genre, and we u...

I just have to say it was sure an interesting and fun experience. I tried and learned a lot of techniques regarding media including learning about different angles, shot sizes, camera movements. I even made my very own story boarding twice! I also learned about the miss and scene of movie making and how costuming, the setting, actors, lighting, all of that can add so much characteristics and improved story telling to a movie. When making our project there were lot of things we could use, and making the right choices in our movie making did put up a challenge for us. Creating a story opening with the mood we wanted to convey and to tell our storyline required us to think about a lot of components when it comes to movie making so we could make this project something we can be proud of presenting. I feel like we accomplished our ...
