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...

Hey guys!! So I’m almost done with my commercial. I have come a long way with production. I learned how to add letters to my edit. Just select the video you want the letters to appear in. Then you select the text option at the bottom of the screen. After that just type what you want to appear. You can also change the font of the text. You can also change when the text appears. For example I lined up my text to the lyrics at the beginning of the song that says “thank you” “thank you” thank you”. I also learned about the “Velocity” effect. It gives a more vibrant view for my edit. Makes it more alive and eye catching. I really want something that attracts the watcher. I also plan on adding more videos to the football game I went to the other day. I feel like I have come a long way though. Especially with editing because I used to think it was so easy. Meanwhile it was not that easy. I’m glad I got the chance to learn about it though. I can use these new earned skills for future projects....

  Hey guys!! I'm back if you don't know who I am my name is Jana'e and here's a few interesting things about myself.   I am 16 years old and a junior attending Fort Lauderdale High School. I currently play the trumpet in marching band. I've been playing for about a year now. I still have a lot to learn. In my spare time I love to cook. I mostly cook chicken, rice, pasta, dumplings, or any other meal I see on Google or TikTok.  I am currently in the mentorship program at my school. I am helping incoming freshman get used to high school, help with any emotional problems that progress, and I help with any schoolwork they have. This is great for me because I get to discuss this in college essays, and I get to help people in need who are sometimes afraid to ask for help. I like going to Orlando to visit my sister and her family. I also like going swimming at the pool. ***NOT THE BEACH***. I don't like the way the sea water makes my skin feel. Also has anyone ever dis...
