Our Pitch



 Me and my group came up with three pitches for short film concepts. Here they are. 


 1) A ex-homeless man steals from major NASDAQ level companies and gives his stolen riches back to the homeless. 


2) A trio of reckless teenagers devise and attempt to execute a plan to pull off the ultimate bank heist.


3) A man is so obsessed with a celebrity he will do whatever it takes to "trade lives". 


My group decided to go with pitch number two. We picked pitch number two because we felt like it would be the most fun to make. The movie "Going In Style" is an inspiration for this concept. In that movie a group of old men rob a bank and it is a very fun watch. This concept with a teenage cast has never been done before in film and bank robbery films are always fun to watch. We also have a bank that can serve as a filming location at access so it wouldn't be a problem finding a place to film. I am very excited to make this film with my friends and create something I am proud of.

Production Blog: Finally Finished

Image
 Today we have finally finished our final task. For the past 2 months, me and my group have been continuously working on our final task project. We spaced out what we needed to do in order to get it done as quickly and efficiently as possible, and made sure we had enough time to produce a very solid film. Taking time to plan and research before we began filming also helped immensely with creating our film. We spent the first few weeks planning on where our film would take place, what it would be about, and what genre it would be. After landing on a genre and planning out a location to film, we began researching films similar to what we had planned and scoped out what we wanted our film to look like. After this, we created the storyboard and looked for music that we could incorporate into our film. Lots of time and planning went into the film before we actually started filming. After finishing the planning process, we began filming at our location which ended up being my house and b...
