AICE Media Studies

     After looking over the different genres we came down to three contenders- mystery, thriller, and romance. And to do a quick recap our pitch is " A girl struggles to realize the blurred lines between fiction and reality." So now that you are all caught up we were thinking that everyone was going to do the same which is horror, so we fell on the idea of a romance film. And I know you may be thinking about how could that work with our pitch. BUT, we thought it could be a story of a girl being delusional and going crazy over a lover. We later realized it is a lot closer to thriller or mystery than romance. Since there isn't a happy ending. And just in case you forgot the actual story of our film is still in the works but we know we want to surround it with a person going insane, to spread the danger of not caring for a mental health issue. So going through the genres and ideas let us come to our final decision- but before I tell you let me walk you through the thought pr...

  The last genre we chose to research was romance. Attached is all of the research we got for it.

 Another one of the genres we chose to research was Mystery. Attached is all of the research we got for it. 

  One of the genres we chose to research was Thriller. Attached is all of the research we got for it. 

    Welcome back, after discussing with my group members we came up with two pitch ideas...  Pitch A: A girl struggles to realize the blurred lines between fiction and reality. Pitch B: A girl realizes her best friend isn't as innocent as she seems. Pitch A: We are interested in the first pitch because the concept itself is remarkably interesting. When hearing about the project, we all first went to this idea. There are also certain circumstances that make this filming easy. We believe one member of the group has a house in which would be perfect for this idea.. We all discussed our roles in this film, which makes us more interested in acting in  Pitch B: We are interested in the second pitch because there are so many ways this story can be portrayed. This idea has several ways it can be executed. Not only this, but it is far more interesting to us than the first. This story includes real-world problems which can include insomnia and other mental illnesses. Making us...

      If you ask anyone who knows me, they will always tell you I work alone. I do projects, assignments, everything alone. I do this because I have more control over my results and time, plus I don't have to depend on anyone. Last year I had a partner for the first project, that was horrible, I did most of the work and it was very stressful finding time for both of us. The second project I worked alone, which really worked out great for me. And the third project I worked in a group, we all did work, which took a load off of me, but we got into many arguments. Then again I wasn't really close with them, or know them so it made it hard for all of us to come to a decision. But hey, at the end of the day we did it. So for this year, the project seems much more complex than last year so to be safe having other opinions and help would be useful. So I will be working with two people this time, Omnia and Rem. Don't worry this time I actually know them so we should be good. Plus ...

      Heyyyy! I'm Franshesca Leiva, a senior this time coming for A level. I am so happy I passed AS level since now I can build on what I did last year. Anyway, I can't take you on this journey without building a relationship with you, obviously. I am 17 years old going out more than ever compared to last year. I love doing things after school it could be getting food, going to the beach, going to my friends' house, literally anything. I have come to love taking pictures and videos. Last year I mentioned a phase I had in middle school where I took random videos and edited them as if I were a Youtuber, but now I just make vlogs or use different angles to make funny videos of my friends. Besides that, I do have a job which I do during the week and occasionally on weekends.  Of course I have work friends, which we spend the whole time joking around when we have no customers- by the way I work at Hollister. I have been working there since June and honestly, it is the be...
