Reflection

.Pre-production

-How did you come up with the idea for your movie
My partner and I were coming up with designs separately, and choose the one that seemed the best

- What was one of you biggest Challenges during the writing process
When we had to come up with the script we had writers block, so it took a while to come
up with a script

-Did you write many versions of your script
Yes, we wrote many versions but stuck to the original concept. We mostly had to make new
scripts to correct What was your biggest challenge during pre-production

-Did you use your storyboard to plan your shots? Describe how this process helped.
At first my group didn't really follow the storyboard until we saw that the whole thing was
mess. Then we re-shot the entire movie following the storyboard and it turnes out better

.Production

-What was a challenge that you had during filming of your movie
We couldn't find anyone who was willing to put ketchup on there face and then we found Ms.
DeAnna, but we couln't use the shoot because it wasn't following the storyline

-What was something that struck you about filming a movie
It struck me how hard it was to keep the camera still, because our movie was really shaky

-What is something that you might do differently next time if you had a chance to film again
I would of paid more attention to our movie, because we kept putting our movie aside acting
for other peoples film

.Post Production

-What was a challenge you had during editing your movie?Did you have to rerecord some of
your movie? If so why?
We didn't have to re-record anything from the movie but on one part of the movie, the
scene didn't make sense, because at she was in the door, then she was out, then back in

-Did the movie come out according to the script
It was close enough, but I did want it to be a little funnier

-Did the movie match the story board
I personally think it matched up pretty well compared to our original takes.

-What challenge did you have finishing your movie
I wasn't there on the last day of editing the movie, so what I heard was that it had trouble
uploading

-What advice would you give to another young movie maker
I know it sounds cheesy but, really try to make the movie good, because our group was like, oh just take a video and tada. It was much more then that. we had to find a location, find actors, try and wear the same clothing for along time and many more pains

Review of The outsiders

If you like Greasers, the 40's-50's? if you do the outsiders is a great book for you. This novel is about a gang of greasers and their struggle through life. I thought that this was a very interesting novel for many reasons, such as how now-a-days we think of greasers as finger snapping, greasy hair people who choose to be greasers. This book show how most greasers don't choose to be greasers. They have to be greasers because its like family to them.  also that how this movie has violence, yet there is hardly any use of guns, compared to now a days were all action movies have guns. This book was so good they made a  movie of it, which has good graphics for something made in the eighties. In total I would rate this book a 4.5 - 5 because 4.5 for a really good story-line, but a -.5 because the ending was weak
