AICE Media Studies

 We have chosen a suspense thriller short film as a good choice for this group due to its ability to keep the audience interested throughout the entire film. Suspense allows us to focus on developing our story, building tension and creating an atmosphere, with less emphasis on special effects. It is a genre that will allow every member of our team to contribute based upon their skill set. The suspenseful genre creates an environment where we can utilize creativity through lighting, music and pacing to create emotional and anticipatory moments within our film. We believe that a suspense film will make a lasting impression on the viewer and therefore we are confident that this type of film will help our project become memorable. After reviewal of my AS level media studies work, this genre made even more sense due to my groups strengths in suspense. In conclusion, we feel that suspense is an excellent challenge for s that we can accomplish and will have an impact

The people I choose for this project will be crucial for the way it can  possibly turn  out. Due to this, these are the reasons why I have individually chosen these 3 people. First off, I chose to work with a group since we have the chance to connect ideas. If one person has an idea, and the other has something to add to it, the outcome of the finalized idea has the potential to be even better than the original. Now, the reasons why I picked the following people. I have known and worked with  Nico   together since middle school . We have great chemistry when we work together, and in the  times  we have worked together, we have always surpassed expectations .  I chose  Sebastian  because he is a good friend of mine who I know is extremely creative and  innovative, and  knows how to bring great ideas to the gro...

Hi there  bloggers  I am back!  My name   is Dylan Euceda  and  I’m  so excited for A level and all the challenges it brings.  I am  now  1 6  years old, and I am a  junior  at Fort Lauderdale High School. My least favorite class at school is currently  pre-calculus . I have always been bad at math, and the first few lessons are already puzzling me. My favorite class, however,  continues to be  Media Studies , the  fact that we can blog, make music videos, and short films with our friends seems intriguing and fun to work on. Once school is over, my life transitions to soccer and that becomes my focus. I have been playing soccer ever since I learned how to walk and plan to  maybe even  play professionally and make this my living. The dream I have always had  since a kid  was to become a professional soccer player so through that dream I have always had, I use it as motivation to get b...
