Project Selection-Film

Film production interests me because it is something that students my age rarely get experience in. To be able to create a film, you're able to share ideas that you thought you would never be able to do anything with. At least, at this age. Different kinds of camera shots and scene layouts interest me, because I have always wanted to be a film maker. I possess excessive knowledge of the subject, as well as  a different mindset or creative outlet, although I haven't had much experience with film making first hand. This project might be challenging due to my lack of experience. People my age have never tried to produce a film. I've made short videos before, but never a real film or something so professional. So, I can use this opportunity to gain experience.

Revisions

To improve our film, we could work on steadying the camera in a few shots, instead of re-shooting all of the footage. Other than this, most of our difficulties were in the editing process. At some points, the music in the background cut off too soon or was too loud and drowned out the actor's dialogue. As well as this, we could trim some of the clips just to make the film run smoother.

Target Audience #3: Spiderman:Homecoming

Image
Spider-man: Homecoming was released in 2017, with a pg-13 rating. Although it reached mostly teens, marvel movies are usually loved by all ages. Another wide target audience brought the success of this film. As well as this, the overall appeal of a drama/comedy makes the target audience so wide. Being a Marvel movie, there is a feeling of nostalgia for adults who've seen old Marvel movies, as well as excitement in superhero movies for the younger part of the audience. Overall, Marvel is loved by almost all, so the target audience is wide. In our film, we're going to try to make the film appealing to all like in Spider-man: Homecoming. Lots of posters and billboards were everywhere near the time of this film's release. A lot were showing Spiderman around the city. Some posters had Robert Downery Jr., whom would help contribute to the sales of this movie, as he stared in Iron Man, and is a marvel "avenger".

Casting

Miles Johnson: We chose him to play Silas Smith, a stop-motion artist who's working on a new film. Miles Johnson is best fit for the role because he has natural assets that qualify him for the role and relate to the vision of who we had in mind. He's had acting experience in middle school plays. As this is a scene with very little dialogue, we chose someone who can show emotion and facial expressions well. He also can use body language to portray emotion rather than just through speech. As well as this, he fits the part well physically. He looks the right age for the role (early 20s), and also is the correct height that we're searching for. We decided to only have one character in this because the first two minutes are only showing him trying to film. As it focuses on him, there is no necessity to add extra characters.
