Today in school the wifi was out and we had no way of working on the project. So, Mrs. Stoklosa got our tired selves into action and my small class moved our desks into a circle and we just brainstormed ideas with each other for the entire period. I really thought the meeting was helpful because Raul and I got a ton of great ideas and it was nice to see where everyone else was with the project as well.
I took some notes during the meeting about what other people are working on...
Manuela: She is working on a coming of age short-film of a girl trapped in a convent. Her ideas were very much in the works so I am excited to see what she does.
Sophie: Continuing off of her work on the documentary project, she wants to focus on teen vaping. The class gave her a lot of ideas regarding ways she could make her piece be meaningful and really stand out.
Nick: Being his creative self, Nick wanted to do something creative with the plot, which led to a very confusing discussion about looped plot lines. Nonetheless, he is making a short-film in the thriller genre. So at this point, I will just have to wait and see what he comes up with.
Katalina: Katalina wanted to be creative and create a short-film in the thriller genre about a girl with OCD. The controversial part was when she stressed there be a love story incorporated in the film. Mrs. Stoklosa, not too keen on the idea of noting the unconventional nature of a thriller/love story.
Reem: Deciding on a documentary, Reem knew she wanted to create a piece on minority representation in the media. She initially wanted to make the piece focus around the Muslim community but was torn over whether or not she overuses the subject. Ideas were thrown around to address the Chinese community after recent worldly afflictions by the Coronavirus.
Valentina: She chose to create a documentary focused on special needs kids and teens. Her main premise was to focus on her little sister and her true day to day life.
Andrea: Andrea too wanted to incorporate a time loop into her story. She stressed that she wanted to take a more biblical route, with her plot involving a religious woman in purgatory making a cake and the story restarting every time she eats it. Andrea is extremely creative so I am excited to see what she comes up with!
