I have learned more from my group members, the field of media, mental illnesses, and over all how far our creativity can go. Our film isn't the best out there but it definitely is a good one especially with the limitation we had. I am proud of my group because somehow we pulled it together.

Short Film Research: Scruples/ mystery

   After looking into a few short films in which applied to our genre, I found that that that “Scruples” by Adrian Powers was a great fit.

So for our film we wanted to bring attention to how a person may feel with a mental illness. We wanted our audience to feel it for themselves. We did this by having in our opening scene a point of view from the main character and a jump cut to one of those newtons cradles and the main character sleeping. In the point of view the vision was blurry as she walked up to the room she was sleeping in. The second she opens the door her eyes open. This opening was to show that she h...
