Intro Blog

 


     





   Hi my name is Jenna Lytch, I am a student at Fort Lauderdale High school and I'm in the 11th grade. I was born and raised in California for 14 years and moved to Florida the summer before freshman year. Moving across the country put me in a situation of adapting to a new environment and making new friends. By moving and going to FLHS, it allowed for new interests and introduced me to the LAW and Cambridge program. With having an interest in photography, art, and movies AICE media studies stood out to me. So far the class has been easy going and fun. When learning to do assignments about something I enjoy the work feels less of a hassle to get done. Additionally, with school being in a virtual environment AICE media studies seems to work well on the computer, because most of what we are learning is also through technology. If i'm not at home doing hobbies like art and photography, I am out playing lacrosse. I was introduced to lacrosse at FLHS during my sophomore year. I then also started playing on a travel team during the end of summer for a team called Blue Roses. Since then, lacrosse is something I love to do and want to continue to play into college. The sport is something that motivates me to work harder and create new goals for myself. Moreover, with this school year starting in a virtual environment I hope to use more time to focus on school and what classes I need to work on. I am dedicated and well grounded when it comes to my interests. Without knowing me much I come off as shy and reserved. People often think because im quiet in class and around new people I am always shy. However, I can be reliable, caring, and outgoing when people have gotten to know me. This year I hope to improve my skills in school. Certain subjects don't come easiest to me so focusing on my challenges will help me for the future. Overall, this is a little about me and my interests. I look forward to taking this class and I hope to improve my knowledge on Film and camera techniques used in this subject.

Starting the Final Task

Image
   Hi, my name is Jenna Lytch, I am a student at Fort Lauderdale High school, and I'm in the 11th grade. After completing 2 full filming projects I am now on my final task! For this project, I will be creating a 2-minute opening sequence for a film. I look forward to seeing what I choose to do. Because it is the longest project I will need to use a lot of ideas. While completing my final task I'm choosing to work alone. Although working in a group gives you more help, during the pandemic I find it would be hard. Working with others I would have to rely that everyone is able to meet up and film. However, because of the restrictions of parents or even safety, meeting up may be difficult. For the last 2 films I created, I worked alone. Both times ended up successful and I completed my project on time. Because of this, I am hoping this project goes smoothly as well. Additionally, even if I don't work in a group, I can still use my friends as actors. This would help because we a...

Planning Storyboard for my Music Video

Image
Storyboard scenes 1-12 In my first scene actor #1 will be in the frame either wide shot or mid shot. Actor #1 will be holding a picture and a behind the back angle will be slowly be zooming into her closer.  In the second scene actor #1 will still be in the shot but only from the waist up. As the song is starting out the main part says "do you remember" this will be symbolized through the video as Actor #1 is remembering her night on September 21st. Frame number 3 will now have a up close shot of her hand. When the shot is up close you can now clearly see the two people standing in the picture. The picture is warm and colorful and looks as if it was at a dance. The photo is know extreme up close and is in the same position. As the video goes on you can see that the photo comes to life. This photo is now "moving" because Actor #1 had a flashback. In scene 5 you can now fully see actor #2. This actor is seen putting on a record for the music. Scene 5 is still up for d...

Production Blog ~the importance of scenery

Image
  In the process of my final task, props and settings will be very important. Many of my titles will fall onto props that I use. By this, I mean from the transitions of the different names. This will be done during my editing process. For example, when the camera cuts to a box, the titles may appear inside the box as the actor opens it. This creates fun transitions that use elements of the plot. During filming, I'll take multiple clips with different items. This allows me to have options for the backgrounds. The titles I include may also match the color of the prop. During certain scenes the setting may be the sky, so an example of matching titles is a dark blue or even white font color to represent clouds. Additionally, because the sequence is 2 minutes, the dialogue can't be very long. The dialogue will contribute to the setting and tone of the film. Creating a clear dialogue is the main objective. Moreover, the settings what the audience first sees. Because of this, I don...
