Genre Blog

 For our opening sequence, we've chosen the thriller genre, specifically an urban crime thriller, as it allows for high tension, suspense, and complex characters- elements we are excited to explore. The decision to go with this genre came from our desire to create a gripping narrative that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats right from the start. We wanted to tell a story that explores deep moral dilemmas, such as the struggle between good and evil, and the fine line a detective must walk as they uncover dangerous secrets. Thrillers, especially those set in urban environments, have a unique ability to set a dark and atmospheric tone, which is perfect for building suspense from the very first scene. Additionally, thrillers provide opportunities for creative editing and sound design, which can enhance the emotional impact and intensity. After considering several genres, we felt that a thriller would allow us to challenge ourselves with pacing, character development, and creating a sense of urgency. This genre also offers the potential for a deeply engaging story that resonates with audiences on both an intellectual and emotional level.

Can't forget about the bloopers – laughter's what makes our film real. Script revisions on the fly 'cause sometimes spontaneity rocks. Taking breaks between takes, chilling with snacks, that's the vibe. Every scene's a puzzle piece, fitting together to tell our tale. Capturing the essence of high school life, one frame at a time. From classrooms to hallways, our school's our cinematic playg...

 I am working with Alexander Nordyke, and Alex Dimartino. I chose them because making a music video will be easier and will look a lot better than if I did it alone. It will not only have better filming, but will have more actors for more roles. The reason I picked these two men as my film partners, was because I trust them with work and we have great team chemistry. I played baseball with Alexander Nordyke, and have known Alex Dimartino for a little over a year. This was a much better alternative not only because it will be a better music video. But mainly because Alex Nordyke has a car. This will make filming our videos much easier. And faster.
