Blog 16 - Independent Component 2 Approval


"If it can be written or thought, it can be filmed."- Stanley Kubrick

1.  Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.


A: For the duration of the Independent Component 2, I plan on spending my 30 hours creating another short film by partnering up with Jacob Smith and Philip Rosenblum. This short film however will be different than most types of other films in the past. We plan on creating a project that expresses multiple genres as the story progresses. We want to explore the aspects of cinematography and editing techniques in order to determine what methods can successfully get an audience to react in the way it was meant to be experienced in. We plan on shooting our short film with a total of four genres: horror, action, comedy, dramatic/romantic. By exploring these four genres, we hope to successfully relay the emotions that come with each genre.


2.  Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.


A: Over the 30 hours, the three of us will undergo the three major sections of production: pre-production, production, and post-production (Preparation, Filming, Editing). Throughout the duration, we will complete a number of drafts for our screenplay, go through hours of countless filming, and sitting at a desk editing. In addition, the three of us plan on analyzing certain filmmaking aspects when it comes to iconic films and how those pieces of art were able to get audiences of all types to react in one uniform way.


3.  Explain how this component will help you explore your topic in more depth.


A: By completing this component, I believe that I will be able to gain a better understanding on certain editing and cinematography techniques that filmmakers use in order to elicit certain emotions out of their audience, whether it be through music, the type of shot, the type of cut, etc.


4.  Post a log in your Senior Project Hours link and label it "Independent Component 2" log.


A: Done
