Blog link: hmmm idk
Because of my super awesome blog and its insane absurdity, I got my 15 minutes of fame throughout the beginning of this group meeting after Tstok pointed it out :D it was actually pretty awesome seeing my classmates looking at my blog and being like "LMAOOO????" I am genuinely so proud of this blog and how much of pure personality I put into it all day everyday so that was just the greatest honor seeing others enjoying it :]]
After my spotlight, my group was like "u wanna go first :D" and I was like "yeah bet :DD" So then I presented everything that we had going on in our super awesome project! Here's what's up!
I began my presentation by telling my group all about the plot I had going on. I explained to them that my film was going to be all about this girl named Otto looking for power and going to this guy Annie Christopher who's totally not the devil himself disguised :D The entirety of the film is Otto fulfilling each one of Annie's tasks for her promised power such as handing out flyers, sticking them around every where, making trashy altars, etc. By the end of the film, however, Otto gets more unhinged and begins losing herself to the deal and to the devil, even going as far as sacrificing her sister and never actually receives the power she was promised, because she literally lost her soul.
This entire struggle for religious power was ultimately worthless for Otto because of that loss and that's basically the message that Joaquin, Andrew, and I are looking to convey. The film will be a critique on power struggles especially in terms of religion since it has been used as an excuse to exert power over others for years in human history, therefore making it a very real issues that deserves some recognition and critique within the media and, in this case, from 3 really weird unconventional teenagers :D
After spitting my bars on the plot, I began to spit my bars on my concerns and got some pretty good suggestions from my fellow peers :] I first expressed my worries about our locations and where we could possibly film, especially for the end of our production. My group suggested that for the ending, we head over to Markham Park because it has that really cool foresty, non Weston looking mystique and vibe going on that could really support our film and its tone at the climax. Adriana also added on that there's a bridge in Markham chuck filled with graffiti that could also work wonders! I am for sure taking these suggestions into consideration because for this whole time we've been planning, I've always been imagining the climax taking place in a forest of some sorts, or anywhere outside that isn't too bright, so it's perfect if everyone in my group ends up agreeing on it :]Another concern that I expressed to my group had to do with some of the violence that we plan on implementing into our short film. The last time Joaquin, Andrew and I talked about plot, we discussed the possibility of having 3 deaths put into the film but my group suggested that we instead just have one death because having 3 might be a little too much for a 5 minute narrative piece. This I totally understand and highkey agree with. The next time my project group have a discussion about our plot which will be very soon most likely over call, I'll suggest toning down the violence a tad
