Transitioning Post

 It's February 9th and today starts my working of the Cambridge portfolio project. We recently finished our music marketing project which I feel like will definitely help me to be successful in this project since it gave me practice. I actually had a lot of fun filming and working with my partners in the music marketing project so I am excited yet a bit nervous for this one. I am excited because this will allow me to use all my creativity skills and I feel that it will be fun rather than exhausting as some other projects have been. However I am nervous because I want to be successful and I hope for this to turn out the way I intend it to. Even though it is only the first day, I do already have an idea of what I am going to do. Last class (2/7/24) when Mrs.Stoklosa was teaching a lesson, introducing our class to the project I came up with an idea in class. Since I did not want to forget this idea I jotted down an overview of my idea:

My idea was for my setting to be located in Fort Lauderdale during the summer on a boat. The genre is going to be a Teen Criminal Thriller. So the opening begins with no music, only dialogue and environmental sounds. One of my friends is getting on the boat with drinks. We amplify the synchronic music from the boat and then turns non-diagetic. The scene follows up with a montage of the day of my friend group having fun and doing actives. One scene will show how my friends want me to drink as well with them and me being hesitant until I finally do. This will show how my friends are not good influences and I am the more laid back friend. Then finally when the montage ends, so does the non-diabetic music. This new scene will be me at my friends house with another friend. Its now night time and I plan to use more low lighting. They ask me to sneak out with them and I put my foot down refusing because of a bad feeling. I tell them I will stay home and keep watch for my friends parents. They accept and leave for their adventure. It is now daytime and a close-up will show me waking up to a slamming door and my friends father yelling. Instantly I get up knowing she got caught and I am filled with worry since I feel asleep and did not keep watch and wait unil they got home. As I enter the living room her parents are full with anger but with sadness. My friend comes up to me crying and saying I was right... I notice blood on her shirt and when she tells me what had happened the diabetic sounds of my friend speaking blurs off to a ringing sound effect. This enhances my altered state.
