Within this half a year, I have learned a lot in this class. For starters, I learned how to blog. Yes, teens of this generations love our phones, but this "blogging" term is not something I did on a regular basis. My teacher has taught me how to structure these paragraphs, and how to get the information to you guys. I also learned how to edit. Believe me, I have not had to edit any type of footage a day in my life. That is until I got into this class. The talent that I am bringing is my writing skills. My group members and I all had talents that we portrayed in the last media projects, but I did most of the writing. Writing gives me a way to express myself and gives others a better understanding of what I have to say.
A pitch is a term derived from Hollywood that is used to describe an idea of a film. This idea is an idea of the film that is spewed out quickly and simply in 25 words or less. An example of this can include a movie scene where one trying to move their way up in their current job position (an assistant that wants to become team lead), but the boss is too busy to spare more than five minutes of their time. This assistant is on limited time and therefore has to make a pitch that'll hopefully catch the bosses attention. I'm pretty sure we've all seen a movie like this. A recent example is what men want by Adam Shankman. Our 1st pitch: A group of people have their drinks drugged at a party, then they find themselves in a room they have to escape from. 2nd pitch: A Caucasian male and African-American female find themselves in love with eachother and although this isn't the olden days, their love is still forbidden. 3rd pitch: She's a lawyer by day and criminal mastermind by night and she abducted her client's child because she wants to build a family. Only one of these interesting pitches can be the topic of our 2-minute movie.
