Hey, it's me again for the last time. I had so much fun being in the AICE Media Studies class for two years in a row. This film was so amazing to make and I had a blast. I'm so sad to be saying goodbye to this class. I hope to continue filming later on. Thank you for everything, peace out!

  Hi my name is Lola Mackie. I am so excited to be in this AICE Media Studies class and learn new skills I have not yet developed. I am not a very artsy or technological student however, I love creative writing and being in front of the camera. One of my main goals to achieve in this class is to better my editing. Now here is an inside scoop on my life outside this class. First, one of my favorite things to do is play soccer. I play travel and varsity high school soccer. My favorite position to play is the right wing or forward. I play soccer at least 5 days a week and one day I am hoping to play college level soccer on a scholarship. In my free time the best thing to do is hang out with my friends. We love to go to the beach and binge watch movies. When I am not playing soccer, hanging out with my friends or doing school I am working. I work as a hostess at a restaurant on the beach. I work 2-3 days a week  so hopefully I can make enough money to buy a car . As of right now I have no

Almost done editing!

We are almost completely done editing! Some final touches need to be added to the commercial to make it prettier and cleaner but the overall film and editing is done. I am sadly not the most tech savvy person so editing was on the harder side for me. I have never been able to figure out all the cool editing features for any videos I made even though I love to be in front of the camera. Luckily some of the members in my group could help me out this time and we all split up the work. We all pitched in a little to help the editing process. My task was to import the Twizzlers logo and slogan into the commercial. I couldn’t decide where I wanted the logo to pop up on the screen when editing. Initially, I wanted the logo to dissolve onto the screen but the idea did not look right with the commercial. I finally decided that I wanted the logo to to pop up on the screen over the final scene with a transparent background so your still able to see the scene behind it. I also inserted a background

Dad Reviewed my Blog!

 My dad is a big fan of me taking this AICE media class. He loved my first commercial film so much that he posted on all over social media. He even  sent the film to a producer to try to get it aired on television. I know, he sounds crazy! I thought though, who would be a better person to critique my film than him. So, I played my dad my film and he had a lot of thoughts, both positive and negative. One thing he liked about the film was the intensity. He said that the opening scene would leave some people frightened. Many movies don’t fulfill this aspect of horror movies so it was definitely a high compliment. He also liked that the film followed the horror genre so well. He mentioned that the dark lighting contrast, the setting and acting that we did really helped create a scary tone. He did however also suggest I make some scenes a bit darker because it made scenes feel less scary then they should be. Another thing he critiqued about my film was the speed that the titles entered and
