Start of the Final Task

     Hello, my name is Jeffery Love. I attend Fort Lauderdale High School and I’m currently in my sophomore or otherwise known as 10th grade year. I’m 16 years old and I consider myself mature for such a young age. I consider myself a fun and outgoing person, definitely the life of the party some may say. I love to hang out with friends whether it be at the beach or at one of their house’s and I do this a lot during the weekend of course. I also love to play video games, they are my getaway when my school and social life get really stressful and out of hand. I also love watching Gordon Ramsay videos on youtube, it’s something about him yelling at people that really makes me laugh. I plan on doing the Final Task with Sage as shes proven to be a reliable partner and we also work really well together. This project proves to be a obstacle that I’m ready to tackle and do really well on. My partner and I have narrowed down many pitches we came up with for the movie and have decided to tell you about the three we have so far.
     Before I tell you though, I’d like to reflect on my progress in this class and many of the skills I have taken on. First and foremost, I learned how to properly use a camera. I specifically learned how to properly film, hold, and handle the cameras provided to me by my teacher. I also learned how to edit on different applications such as Pinnacle Studios. To add on, I also learned how to storyboard and how to us mis en scene to my advantage in the film making process. One of my favorites is how to use editing to make clips and footage appear and move much more smoothly. Further, I used editing to shorten or lengthen clips to make the run time of the finished project appropriate. The talents I’m most excited to use are editing and filming. Of course these two are the most important in the film making process, but these are also the hardest to do. Somehow I feel I got these in the palm of my hand and I’m ready to prove it.
     To end, I wi be telling you my pitch ideas for my final task. A pitch is a Hollywood term used to describe an idea in 25 words a less. My first pitch is ,  “A love crazy girl believes she’s met the guy of her dreams, but it quickly proves to be the guy of her nightmares.” My second is , “She’s hiding something, something dark. Will she be able to hide it forever or will her luck run out?” And my last one is , “Lifelong friends gone broke. Their last resort, robbing a bank. They aren’t the sharpest, but this may play in their favor.” The first two pitches are meant to be a part of the horror genre and the last pitch is meant to be comedic/action packed.
