Group Meeting #2

Recently we had our second group meeting, we meet again with students from other groups to share our progress and give feedback. After meeting with everyone for the first time, I noticed that the majority of their stories were now a bit more developed, many of them already begun shooting some of their scenes. It was cool to see how diverse the peoples genres are as well as the different ways each person was planning their CCR.


Juana's film is gonna be called A MAJOR FLAT, its about a bad band whose only star is the keyboardist. The singer is jealous, the drummer is lazy, and the bassist is obsessed. It begins with a chaotic performance by the group in which the performance is interrupted several times, a lot of chaos is introduced by someone throwing a can at a singer, and a very large male audience member uses crutches to hit a singer who he says stole from him. She said her idea for her CCR might be a podcast using stick figures done in an animation.


Sriaka's film opening is an action film that revolves around a drug dealer who betrays other people and has a couple of shootings. There is some filming already done but not complete. The very beginning of this film consists of a kidnapping, flashbacks, and a fight scene. Sriaka intends to use an interview with the drug dealer character in his CCR.


Raina's film opening is about a girl that is facing the loss of her boyfriend and getting ready to finish high school. Raina is almost finished shooting her project but wants to add some flashbacks to her film. She also received clearance to use one of the songs she wanted to include in her project.


Camilla's film opening is about a psychological thriller based on revenge and an car crash. In this story, there is a male and female character, the female dies due to the car crash, while the male character survives but lives through the female’s imagination. The beginning of her story is 1 year after the incident.


Overall, this meeting helped me see how everyone is developing their ideas and planning their CCRs. It was useful to hear feedback and compare our progress.
