Representation Blog Post

Is it fair, stereotypical?

I think our story is fair. All the characters get a different role where they can interpret it creatively in their own way.

How are you challenging representation with your film?

Representation would be high school friend group. Each person is a different ethnicity, with different features. This represents teenagers being teenagers having fun and going through a scary experience together.

Do you feel you need to make any edits to improve your characters? If so, what changes?

No, I do not feel I need to make any edits to improve the characters. They are unique in their own ways.

Which showed our close and fun friendship between us. Our third shot we took was a over the shoulder shot. We took a photo behind a person facing another classmate. Which demonstrated a dialogue scene where people are talking showing their feelings. It helped us focus on one of the students and the conversation they were having. I thought this assignment was very fun. It gave us a hands on experience of taking these different types of shots like how they do in movie or shows. I found it re...
