Our comedy horror film challenges conventions by exploring sensitive topics such as depression and attempted poisoning in a humorous manner. Rather than portraying the girl as a helpless victim, she responds to the situation with resilience and wit, subverting the traditional narrative of victimhood. This representation challenges the stereotype of individuals with depression as fragile and powerless, instead portraying them as capable and assertive. Furthermore, the film addresses the issue of toxic relationships and the importance of recognizing and standing up against manipulative behavior. By depicting the girl's response to her date's attempt to poison her with humor and defiance, the film highlights the need for healthy boundaries and self-advocacy in relationships. Our film engages audiences by blending elements of comedy and horror to create an entertaining and thought-provoking viewing experience. The unexpected twist of the girl's reaction to the poisoning attempt

‘Hard work and dedication’

Image
 Hey guys! I have been working hard editing the video for everyone to enjoy. Me and Jenna have had plenty of fun working together. During the editing process I had to work efficiently. Since most scenes wouldn’t blend together smoothly I had to find transitions that helped. It may not transition smoothly but it gives a nice effect. It was also hard choosing where to put each scene so the storyline makes sense. In the end it was effective. I also had to choose a font that wasn’t too harsh and scary but fit the comedic horror role. I also had to figure out how to make the text appear while Jenna was walking past it was difficult but I did it with the help of YouTube. That’s all for today guys!

‘Recording shenanigans’

Image
 Hey guys! Me and Jenna had a lot of fun recording but there were ups and downs. We had went to a mall close by it was kind of busy. At first me and Jenna had a hard time filming the bathroom scene because a lot of people were coming in and out and we didn’t want to seem weird. When we were outside many cars kept coming and almost hitting us in the process. Besides that some people also took our seats we were filming at so it was a shift in scenery for a bit. We had to film the coffee scene twice because Jenna was laughing and I didn’t catch the scene at the right time. It was funny. After that Jenna’s coworkers interrupted us and started talking with her. Then after the filming Jenna drank both of the coffees and threw up later while we started doing a few shopping around the mall.  That’s all for today guys!

‘Changing it a bit’

Image
 Hey guys! So, after showing my short movie to the fam and friends, I got their thoughts and decided to tweak some stuff. My bestie was like, "It's kinda creepy, man," so I toned down the stalker vibes a bit. My cousin said to ease up on the intense stuff, so I dialed it back. Sis wanted more depth for the girl, so I gave her a bit more backstory. Mom got all mom-like, asking if it's sending the right message, and Dad suggested digging into why the guy is stalking. Grandma was old-school, not vibing with the funny-stalker thing. Some friends were into the soundtrack, so that stayed. Others were split on the ending, so I kept it chill without a big twist. They liked the edgy vibe but had mixed feelings on the stalking part. Took their advice and changed it up – still different but more balanced. It was like a mini-movie review with the crew. Adjusted the editing a bit, kept it light but added more layers to the characters. In the end, it felt more solid, you know? The

‘Feedback is a necessity’

Image
  Hey guys! So, like, I made this short movie, right? It's about this guy stalking a girl, but get this – she's all depressed and thinks it's like, charming and funny. Anyway, after showing it to my friends and fam, they had a bunch of stuff to say. My bestie was like, "Dude, that plot is wild! It's so creepy, but also kinda funny, you know?" And my cousin was all, "The vibe is so unique, but maybe dial down the stalker stuff, it's kinda intense." My sis, who's all into drama, was like, "OMG, the tension is insane! But maybe give the girl more depth, you feel me?" Mom, being all protective, was like, "Honey, are you sure this is the right message?" Dad, being the cool guy, said, "It's edgy, but maybe explore the reasons behind the stalking more." Grandma was like, "Back in my day, we wouldn't have found that funny, dear." Some of my friends were split, with one saying, "The soundtrack slaps

‘You live and you learn’

Image
  Hey guys! I have been getting a hang of merging clips together and adding certain sound to the specific scene.  Rearranging the footage to tell our unique story has been a wild ride. I'm still getting used to the whole process of merging videos, but it's all in the name of creating something unforgettable. Our horror romance movie is becoming a beast of its own, and I can't wait for everyone to experience the creepy yet strangely alluring world we're crafting on the screen. The journey through the editing realm has been a formidable one, especially for someone not accustomed to seamlessly merging different video sequences. It's become a profound learning experience, requiring a thoughtful approach to crafting a cohesive narrative. The challenge lies in intertwining scenes, ensuring they seamlessly flow together to tell our captivating story of love and horror. Every decision, from rearranging sequences to adding text, contributes to the overall impact of our film
