tea time in tstok

 So today in class we had a group meeting to discuss our projects and get some feedback and ideas... unfortunately Cypress Bay decided it was a perfect time to do a fire drill. So for the first 30 minutes of class, we walked in the blazing hot sun but eventually, we got into our groups.  My group consisted of my classmates Martina, Juan, Max, Kat, and Isabelle. Most of our ideas were very different from one another, but it was so cool to hear what other people's ideas were. My favorite idea was Isabelle's who is doing a dystopian film that I thought was so out there for a teenager to make, she and her partner have developed the full idea and even beyond the film opening. The opening consists of a group of kids getting socially experimented on and she was struggling to figure out a way to show that, we all gave her some advice like making them follow rules, or injecting them with something and seeing how they react or just something obvious that the audience would understand. Her idea kind of reminded me of this movie I watched that I actually really liked its called The Giver, it was a mix of that and Hunger Games into 1.

After 2 people in our group talked we only had 20 mins so the rest of us had to kind of speedrun our explanations. Juan went after Isabelle and he had a similar type of dystopian film involving kids but it was still so different from the other one. It's about the CEO who runs a boarding school for kids to learn how to be businessmen, it's a really interesting idea and I've never seen anything like it.

When it was my turn to speak there were 5 minutes left of class so I quickly told everyone my idea. Everyone seemed to really like the idea and loved the musical aspect of it. One person mentioned that I should have the music playing in her headphones and that was exactly what I was going to do. 

After talking with all my classmates it made me super excited to see all their final projects because they all seem really into their project and I am sure they are gonna make them amazing.

So before I start looking for locations to film I need to do a deep dive into non-copywritten music that I can incorporate throughout the opening so I'll talk to you when I start that soon.
