Reflection

 Reflection This is essentially the mood board of my Short Film. I want this film to be refreshing and for all age groups to be able to watch. When creating this film and mood board, I essentially wanted people of an older age group to feel nostalgic and have them be reminded of their past memories of when they were in high school. I also wanted to target a younger audience by letting them know to make memories right now, as when they get older, they will want to remember the memories they made when they were younger to tell in the future.  Questions: How do your products represent social groups or issues? The mood board and thematic elements of the movie skillfully and eloquently weave a tapestry of nostalgia and contemporary relevance across generations. It is a moving reminder of the formative years that shape us all, drawing on treasured high school experiences. It serves as a nostalgic time capsule for older viewers, evoking nostalgic memories of simpler times and the inn...

 Minor Tasks I'm excited to reveal the official movie poster designed just for my short film trailers. Using the flexible tools provided by Canva, I methodically crafted every part of this visual masterpiece. The backdrop has a real feel, drawn from an original shot personally snapped by yours truly, giving the poster a certain charm. I intentionally positioned the two lead actors in a dominating stance at the forefront of the film, emphasizing their importance as major protagonists. In addition, I made care to prominently display the name of our acclaimed production company, highlighting the collaborative spirit that is propelling this project ahead. To enhance the visual appeal and convey the essence of the film's dynamic plot, I chose to slightly bend the title, instilling a refreshing and fascinating atmosphere. Furthermore, it was necessary to recognize the creative vision and directorial prowess behind the scenes; hence, the director's name is elegantly featured benea...

  Location These are the places I will be using for my Trailer:           Clearwater High School: This key area acts as the hub of young Shreya's memories, the actual source from whence they emerge. It captures the spirit of her formative years, including her high school experience. Each object in this collection is significant, giving testimony to the events that molded her path. It's more than just a physical place; it's a reservoir for her emotions, a temple to her history, and a portal to her inner self. As a backdrop for the trailer, it evokes nostalgia and importance, enabling viewers to dig into Shreya's memories and feel the core of her narrative. Sarah's House This is a critical turning moment, as elderly Shreya walks down the corridor, her steps heavy with memories and anticipation, until she reaches the attic's doorway. Among the dust and darkness, she uncovers the box that will open the floodgates of memory, sending her on a voyage of contemplat...
