Portfolio Project - Week 3 Update 1

 Overall, the group meeting was a lot of fun, I was able to get some feedback from a new set of ears and that really helped broaden my perspective and finalize some ideas.



The first project we talked about was Aneesa's, which was about a girl leaving a grocery store and seeing a planet up in the sky, seemingly about to crash into earth. People are panicking all around, but the girl feels unfazed by it. She then enters her car and drives away, which will then reveal the title: Rogue. The group gave some advice to have her enter the car and a radio broadcast talking about what's happening comes on in the middle of it. So that it feels more realistic.


Then we talked about sienna's idea, which starts with a group of friends hanging out, looking back on their memories on their computer. Theres a fast forward to present time, revealing the title: One last time. This will hint at the film being them hanging out together for the last time. It will be coming of age. The group’s advice was to incorporate environmental hints at why they are hanging out for the last time, like maybe something that shows they are graduating.


The next idea was my personal favorite: Maxes Time loop. The general idea is that a girl is stuck in a therapy session, when she leaves, she gets into her car, and she gets a phone call and she's back in the therapist chair. To establish the time loop, they plan to incorporate different events that happen during the meeting. I suggested that the audience should find out about the loop alongside the protagonist, to make it a little more shocking to the audience.


Finally, we have Julio's idea which starts with a couple walking out of a theatre after watching a movie, the man tells the girl that he parked behind the theatre, so they have to go through the alleyway to get back there. He is in the alley, cut up with a Pov of someone watching him. A concern was maintaining quality in the dark. In the alleyway, the girl is going to get a phone call saying that they like the watch she's wearing or some form of jewelry, hinting that the person will try to rob it. After the phone call, the girl is stabbed to death. It is then revealed that the people that murder her are a couple. An idea that came up during the meeting, was that the blood on the floor should shape into the title of the movie.
