Group Meeting #1
Hello! This week, my teacher assigned us into many groups to discuss our ideas for the Cambridge Portfolio Project. I found it very useful as I got to share my idea and received many wonderful ideas from my peers. It was also great being able to hear their ideas, which allowed me to bounce back and forth and find new things I would like to include in my project.
My Group and their Ideas:
Wants to make a psychological thriller for her project. The story is based on a family that recently lost one of their family members. The scene starts at a dinner table where the entire family is eating after this loss, but a person who looks like their family member is eating with them. Manuela wants to make her opening reveal who this mysterious person is.
Andres wants to make a mystery-type film. His story is based on a mysterious robber who leaves behind a card after every heist. The opening would include this person stealing a valuable piece of jewelry from a wealthy residence. This robber will leave behind a card setting up the rest of the film as they try to figure out who this mysterious person is.
Andreina wants to make a thriller/horror for her project. Her story is based on a teenage girl in her home. The opening would include paranormal activity, which would be portrayed by a ghost. This ghost would be messing with the protagonist of the film by moving/throwing things around her house.
Sebastien wants to make a thriller/ mystery for his project. His main idea is that there are 3-4 teens in a car after a party. They end up in a parking lot where they find a mysterious bag. When they open the bag, they are put into a trance that is being controlled by another person.
Julia wants to do a drama for her project. She began the meeting not really having a concrete idea for her film's opening and asked us for help. She knew that she wanted to do something around someone grieving a loved one. We helped her formulate some ideas that she will hopefully use in the future once she picks out her idea.
Camila wants to make a thriller/drama for her film opening. The main concept of the opening is a girl who is hallucinating her dead sister. The setting of the opening would be primarily in the girls' room. Her parents would walk in the room and be wierded out by the situation. The main goal is to add suspense to the very last moment.
For Taryn's film opening, she wants to do something related to sci-fi. Her opening is based on two sisters in a post-apocalyptic world. Taryn, when she got to the meeting, didn't know how she would set the scene. I suggested that she use news broadcasts from before the world became what it is. Which could lead to the current moment that is being shown in the opening.
Overall, I really enjoyed this activity. I gained so so much insight on things to do and also not to do for my film opening. My group members were really helpful and allowed me to finish devolping my idea for the project.
