Teacher Feedback :D

 Hey everyone! During my last class, my team and I decided to take a step back and ask for some feedback from our teacher regarding our script, story, and ideas we have regarding our short film. Safe to say that the meeting went very well. My teacher had already viewed a draft of our screenplay via our last blog, so she already had a good idea on what the synopsis for our film would be about. Thankfully, she really liked our idea! 

We discussed aspects, such as:

  • How we would break the fourth wall to prevent us from rehashing old clichés typically seen in many mainstream movies
    • To combat this, our character would be talking to the narrator in a variety of different situations and environments that are not reminiscent of stereotypical "talking to camera" sequences.
  • Whether our narrator would be a physical person or an omniscient figure
    • We decided it would be best for our narrator to remain an omniscient and invisible presence to preserve his mystique and almost god-like control over the film
  • How many genres and interpretations we would show in our film
    • We would showcase three main scenes from different genres in order to not over or under load the audience, as well as for the benefit of time. 
Overall, it was a very successful and helpful meeting. It was great to hear feedback on our ambitious concept and to know we are on a good track.
