AICE Media Studies

  Pitch A: A girl experiences the five stages of friendship which are suddenly torn when they once again become strangers.   We produced this because we felt it was relatable. Being a group of friends, naturally our first thought was to make a film about friends. The 5 stages add depth, and we were thinking of adding an aspect of internal conflict to the film. This is usually an integral thing for movies. Though it was our first film idea it was not our preferred choice . This idea, when compared to the others, seems a little bland and slow moving.          Pitch B: An abduction occurs, leaving a sister empty and grieving until she finds a new perspective of life, however the past still haunts her.     We created this pitch because it sounded realisti c. M any people do face that reality, so we thought portraying that would be impressive and awakening. This pitch is creative, unpacks a prominent issue , and sounds doable. Ho wever , it may be difficult to portray all of us

  This year I decided to work in a group. It seemed easier to divide most the work this class requires with a team rather than doing it myself. My group for this year is: Lili, Angie, Hannah, and me. I've worked with Lili and Angie on every project we've been given since AS level. Hannah is joining the group this year and is a new person for Angie, Lili, and me to work with.

This means that Hannah was usually around while my group was filming so we got a chance to learn each other's work ethic. Hannah is a very diligent person which is why I chose to work with her. I chose to work with Lili and Angie because so far each project that we've done together has turned out great. Lili, Angie, and I all understand each other well and support each others need. Each individual also brings something different to the group. Lili is really good with editing and has the

  Hi, my name is Aleiah Luster. It's a new school year and I'm back ready to for A Level Mediastudies.  I'm 16 years old and was born on June 7th, 2006. I have the siblings and am the youngest in my family. I still enjoy reading, and sports. I'm also currently in my junior year. I've recently added a new hobby to my list though. Throughout these past months of taking the class I've came to the realization that I actually really like filming. Taking AS level allowed me to expand on very basic knowledge I had about film. I even got to apply it which really excites me. I'm ready to start working on what's required for A level. Throughout last year I learned so much in terms of media / filming. I improved and built on my previous skills in many ways. For example, storyboards were something that I've done before taking this class but my execution of them improved over the duration the AS level course. I also learned many new things that year, like how to
