My name is Larissa, I am an exchange student from Brazil and I am a junior in RCHS. Since I was a kid I always played soccer and it was the most important thing to me, but a few years ago I hurt my knee really bad and now I can't play anymore so because of that I needed to find a new passion and that is when the video production got in my life and I am really glad for it.

​How do filmmakers develop and convey stories within the mise-en-scène? - - Describe the process of creating your one-shot and multi-shot films... How did you work as a group to develop what shots should be taken? How are you approaching the editing process? What have been some successes and hurdles in these first projects? How do you feel your views on film have changed now that you've had a taste of the work involved?


The filmmakers develop and convey stories within the mise-en-scene by using setting, lightning, costume and staging. Creating the one-shot and multi-shot films is being really good experience, everybody gave the ideas and we created our film. The editing process is fascinating, you can see whole new things that you can do while editing a video. And now with this new experience when I am watching a film/video I am not only looking for the story but how was filmed, the lighting, the sounds and music, the actor performance.

Consider the shots and camera movements we've defined, shot, and edited. Which is your favorite from those you captured for your commercial and why? Also, which is your least favorite shot/camera move and why? What has learning about all these shots/moves taught you about cinematography?

From all the shots and camera movements my favorite from those we captured in our commercial was the zoom-in because it kind let you think what is going to happen when the cameras is going closer and my least favorite would be the long shot because I like to see everything that is happening and with the long shot I can't. Learning about all these shots and moves taught me that cinematography is not an easy work.

Reflect on the process of creating a TV Show Pilot: Provide the logline for your original screenplay and connect your costume designs and ad campaign to the story you created... why did you design what you designed based on the story? Tell, too, about the TV Show Pilot you filmed and edited with your group... what was it like to work with a script and what types of shot(s) do you feel brought the show to life most?


The logline of my original screenplay was about a group of friends traveling around California. The costume designs were simple, I designed based on what teenagers are using. The TV Show Pilot that we filmed and edited was about two boys trying a way to get easy money and it was really funny to work with a script, the types of shots that I feel that brought the show to life most was the POV.

What are some of your biggest psychological barriers when it comes to making films? Share your ups and downs of filmmaking on your blog, and how you plan to continue to grow in the second half of the class.


Some of my biggest psychological barriers when it come to making films is if it is going to be the way I expected or if everybody is going to like it. The ups and downs of filmmaking help us a lot to learn what we can improve and change to make it better.

Describe your experience shooting this project in the film studio with the added lighting elements. How do you feel the studio time affected your final product quality? Additionally, how did you approach the montage portion of your film. Describe what you chose to cut together and what effect you hope for it to have on your audience.


My experience with this project was pretty nice because I learn the different types of lightning that we can use while we are filming. And with that we could create different effects in our video.

Soon, you'll be pitching an idea for a feature film in this class. What genre do you think you'll focus your creativity on? Why are you drawn to this genre? What do you find most interesting about this genre? What would you hope others would get from your work if you were to create films in this genre?


The genre that I think I will focus is comedy or action. I am drawn to this genres because is the type of film I like to watch. What I find most interesting about them is all the action that happens during the whole movie.

Describe your most recent shoot recording a music video. Which song did you choose and what type of concept or mixture of concepts did you capture. Describe what you the final product looks like and how you'd define it in regard to "documentary," "low concept," &/or "high concept." What are you most proud of with this project?


The music we chose was fire burning by Sean Kingston and we did the high concept. It came out really good and funny, I define high concept because it was non-storytelling. I'm most proud of this project because it came out really nice.
