OVERVIEW

 Wow. 

So this is the end. 2 years of being in an Aice Media studies class and my final project is finished. And this has by far been one of my favorites. 

I put a lot of time and thought into this story, it’s something I’ve been working on since November. When I got assigned this project, I decided this would be an awesome opportunity to showcase this storyline. 

Throughout the filming of this project, I didn’t find myself struggling as much with ideas because I wrote a script prior so I had some scenes laid out and knew exactly what I wanted to. Aside from the camera dying a few time, technically I was ok. 

My best friend, Alyssa, is a film student at the University of Miami and she helped me film and bounce ideas for the layout of the trailers. Because I wanted to do most shots of Miles and Taylor together, it was easier to just have an extra hand on the camera.

We were able to film everything in a span of 2 days, which is relatively short, but I believe because I put so much into the behind the scenes that when we ready to film it was go time.

I’m excited to hear what my classmates and teacher think of my work. I am very nervous because I feel like I have such high expectations of myself and every piece I create I definitely overthink it. 

I had so much fun with this. I love acting for my pieces because I feel like I have more control over the way it comes out. The actor who played Miles, Caleb, and I acted off each other prior to this for one of Alyssa’s short films. That being said I knew how we looked on camera together and how the chemistry looks. That’s actually how we met and began to date. 

Long story short, this piece means a lot to me because it’s more than just a story for a class, it’s about an issue that isn’t showcased enough in film, but we will talk more about this in the CCR... Thank you so much for following along with this blog, it has been so awesome to be apart of. Wishing you all the best!

PROFILE: Blog #19

 I wanted to share the social media logo. I know I blogged a few minutes ago but I just created this and wanted to share it because it came out exactly how I wanted it! This is what we would be using as a temporary poster as well until we have the photo shoot for the film which will take place the following week. 

INSTAGRAM: Blog #18

 Happy Monday y’all!

So the social media starts! I made the official Instagram of the film and will begin posting content this week once filming starts. As of now I’m just editing the profile and creating the profile picture/logo for the social media. 

This week I’m going to start filming some more night shots and get as much content as I can in the next 2 weeks so editing will be easier. 

The more video I have the easier it will be to display trailers that correspond with the voiceovers that I want to use.

TAYLOR 

Turn right! Turn right! 

Miles sharply turns the car to the right as they both lean with it. Taylor is grabbing on smiling. The cop is still behind them chasing them. 

Justin comes out from another turn and signals caleb with his hands. The two start crossing and the cop leaves.

 Taylor’s Voiceover


Miles, I would do so much for you

You make me want to give you the life you've always dreamed of 

I want you here forever, next to me, I want to love you forever


You make me feel warm and safe like a fire on a winter night.

I feel whole by your side knowing you are always there for me. 

There’s no bigger reward in life than to wake up to your best friend


I kiss you and I taste love,

I look into your eyes, and I see love

When you hold me, I feel love


If ever times get tough, I hope you know you have me

You can never be too much for someone who can't get enough of you Miles

I will always take care of you.

00 Sometimes, we need to slow down to appreciate all the good things in life

But you Miles, you are the good things in life. 


I will always try my best to understand you,

To grow closer, to fall in love harder

Its you and me forever


Goodnight sweetheart

Miles Voiceover


My other half, Taylor. 

Where do I begin

Life with you is unpredictable. 

You never know what good things are about to happen. 


I can see that shine in your eye when you laugh for all the little things I do. 

When I tell you I folded the towels and completely forget that I never did. 

It’s clear you just want to roll your eyes but you don’t. 

Instead, you smile and we fall in love with each other even more and more.

You accept me as I am.

You make me who I am


When you smile, my heart smiles. 

You challenge me to do things I never thought I could do. 

You challenge me to be a better man than I ever imagined.

I fall in love with all the things you never know you’re doing.

When you grunt your teeth after curling your hair because it just didn’t come out.. Perfect.

I smile because to me it’s the most perfect hair I’ve ever seen. 


Every time you hold on to me,

Rub my chest, kiss my lips

I feel closer, and closer to you 


Everything seems perfect all the time

Like a movie, too good to be true 


Maybe it is too good to be true

You saved me.  

I can't live this life without you.


Do I  make you smile Taylor?

Do you still get those butterflies when we touch?

SCRIPT1: Blog #11

 Good morning!

So I wanted to create a script outline to help motivate my direction with my film. I’m planning on using some of the scenes I write as apart of the trailer. 

I also wanted to use the script to help readers get a better understanding of how the writing is playing out. I’ve dedicated this week and all three of my blog posts to sharing what I have so far with you. I’m planning on writing 10 pages. Here are my first 2.
