Pitches Blog

   For our final task, we had a few different ideas. We narrowed down our ideas in between a horror movie and a drama. For the horror movie, we would want to make seem as eerie and creepy as possible. For the drama, we would want to make it as dramatic and extra as we could. We knew that whatever pitch we decided on, we wanted it to be the best it could be. We want whatever we create to be entertaining and eye-catching for the audience. We had a hard time choosing between these two pitches because we liked the idea for both. We thought for a while about our decision. After some good, long thought, we decided on one of our pitches. We are happy with out choice.

   For the drama, we would have done something like High School Musical. A typical high school drama movie is always entertaining and could be fun to film and edit. We could use our friends to help us create background characters for the film. We could use my mom's car for scenes. We could also use each others houses to film dramatic scenes. This pitch would be good because since we are in high school, we could accurately replicate real high school drama. But, we knew that this pitch could also be difficult to create. For this project, we are not allowed to film at school. So, it would be very hard to create a high school drama film without being able to film in school. Plus, although we thought it would be fun to do a drama, we liked our other pitch better.

   Our second pitch was a horror movie. For the horror movie, we decided we could do a kidnapping film. A kidnapping film could be entertaining to watch, as well as for us to film and edit. We wanted to do a topic that we would really enjoy making since this is our last project. Although we do not know about how kidnapping works, of course, we could do research. We would do the research by watching other films that have a kidnapping storyline. We would film the scenes in a variety of places. Both of us have our drivers licenses, so we would be able to use my group mates car to get to each location we would film at. The only downside to this idea is that it would probably be a little more work to create. But, we actually look at that as a good thing because it gives us more experience  and is more fun for us.

    The pitch we chose was the horror movie one. We chose this because we felt more interested and excited to film it. We also feel because it is more exciting, it is a better pick for our final task.
