  Morning Upper Media Siders, you know who it is, it's your favorite Media Studies site with more information than ever. I want to start off by saying how relieved I am that our movie opener is FINALLY DONE!!! I have never been happier!! It's been a heck of a journey and I am here to tell you all about it. :) How Do I Feel?  How do I feel?...... I feel amazing! It feels so good to be sitting on my bed and writing the words,  "our movie opener is finally done." I have been waiting for this moment since we began to plan! I am not  gonna  sit here and write about how easy it was and how it was a "piece of cake" cause it was NOT!! This was probably one of the most stressful "projects" I have had to do in a while, but overall, It was a fun experience that I will never forget.  I am also so incredibly thankful to have been apart of such an amazing "studio" :) Sarah, Emily, thank you so much for being the best producers/ par...

  Hey, Upper Media Siders, you know who it is, it's your favorite Media Studies site with more information than ever. Blogger girl is back and ready to get into the details about "mise-en-scéne", one of my favorite things about filming :) before I get started with explaining the color in our film, let's go through the basics first!  What Is "Mise-En-Scéne"? According to Studio Binder, Mise-en-scéne  is the arrangement of scenery and stage properties in a play. Translated from French, it means "setting the stage" but, in film analysis, the term mise en scene refers to everything in front of the camera, including the set design, lighting, and actors. Mise en scene in film is the overall effect of how it all comes together for the audience.  This website is very reliable because Ms. Woz used to show us a variety of videos that had to due with camera angles, shots, filming, and etc.  "Mise-En-Scéne" Costumes & More  Color is one of ...

  Morning Upper Media Siders, you know who it is, it's your favorite Media Studies site with more information than ever. Today's blog post is all about how STAR represents a coming-of-age movie! Let me give you a little breakdown as to why!  Is It Stereotypical? The answer to this question is yes and no. Sarah, Emily and I obviously wanted to film the movie opener in a way that would let the audience know that it was a coming of age movie. However, we didn't want to to be 100% Stereotypical and wanted to make some changes that way it could spice up the plot and make it more intriguing to the audience.  For example, There aren't a million movies that start out with a rock star teenage girl crying in a dressing room and then flash back to a normal life. However, there are a million of coming of age movies that have a teenage girl or boy waking up and getting ready for school. Some simi...
