Introductory

 Hello, my name is Jennifer and I am a Sophomore at Fort Lauderdale Highschool. I am currently 15 and I am about to turn 16 this week on September 26. I was born here in Florida but my parents are from El Salvador, most of my family members were born there too and have recently moved to the U.S including my two older brothers. I have a cat named Don Gato who was originally a stray but we took him in as a part of our family, he is a really sweet and loving cat and I love having him around for comfort. In my free time, I usually enjoy playing rhythm games or playing random games my brother recommends to me from time to time. I also like napping through most of my days it's a good way to clear my head and to get productive with things after I've awoken. For hobbies, I enjoy editing and drawing, I've always liked drawing since I was really young and I got the inspiration for editing from people on youtube who made cool edits or amvs of random stuff I used to like in the 4th grade. I used to combine the two together, as well as adding animation to the mix but now it's all separate since I've quit trying to go after something on youtube. But I still very much enjoy drawing and editing and have a pretty good knowledge of those things which makes me confident I can do the things assigned to me in Media Studies pretty easily. I'm a really quiet person in the public view but at home, I'm really cheerful and talkative with my siblings. I like being on my own most of the time or having small amounts of company from time to time, not that I don't enjoy talking to people I just don't fit in with many people's standards but I wouldn't want to change myself for anyone else. I think being different is a good thing even though it sounds cliche. The world feels a lot more peaceful when it's just me and my thoughts, with a little bit of music as well. I like any type of music but my favorite artists would have to be Tyler the Creator and Devi McCallion, they're music has helped me cope a whole lot and I'd die without their music honestly. The shows I enjoy as well are Aggretsuko, Chunibyo, and My Little Pony. I really enjoy nostalgic things like My little pony because I really just love that era of my life so I like to keep it around as well as collecting the toys as well as collecting Littlest pet shops which was also an enjoyable era of my childhood. That is basically everything about me, which is a lot but besides that, I hope I'll be able to do good in this class and that this year will be a good year for me.

Final Day of Filming for my Music Video

Image
On the second day of filming, I finished filming all of the storyboard panels for my music video. I have to say that it was not an easy task. I had a lot of time to myself, so I decided to use that time to actually finish everything, but it wasn't easy because it felt like a time crunch even though I was free to do whatever I wanted. There were still a lot of scenes to finish from where I had left off, and I had to refilm some of them because the clips were too blurry for the final product. I also recorded scenes that I would edit into the music video to give it more personality and easter eggs, which sort of fits the theme of my music video anyway. It was also difficult to change costumes because I play both characters and edit myself into it. It's a difficult task, but it's not impossible. But what I did was work on all of the scenes for the first subject and then change into costume to fit into the second subject; the only difficult part was that I might have had to swit...

Title Design Research: Scream (1996)

  - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? The opening sequence has one title card that starts with the name of the movie, starting off from white to red   - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence? One image that gets prioritized heavily is the phone of Casey Becker. Another thing that gets prioritized is the house such as the doors, the kitchen, the stove. - What connotations do these images carry? The phone shows a mysterious voice that keeps on dialing her. The stranger continuously asks odd questions that begin to get intimidating. The movie uses the phone as a way to scare the viewer as the ringing continues. The movie also displays many parts of the house to make the viewer believe there is a mysterious danger lurking in a place meant to be safe. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? The movie does several things to create a mystery such as by starting a phone call conversation with someone who the viewers hav...

 For my Commerical Project, I will work alone. I think its the best way to go for me because I'm not really trusting of other people because I have no actual clue if they'll do the work or not and in the past I've had lots of issues with people not completing what they're supposed to be doing even with my friends. I can't really rely on others so that's why I'm holding full responsibility for this project. Working alone isn't terrible either, on the bright side I won't have to nudge people into doing their work until they get annoyed with me because I hate being a bother to others as well. Being independent also means this project will be my own unique thoughts without interference. I like working out ideas by myself although critique is necessary I want this project to be my own authentic piece and my own authentic ideas. Having other people's ideas doesn't really make this my own and I may not like what others come up with so I trust myself...
