Final Week.

So this week is the week where we turn in our projects. I know our film is going to be great. Earlier this week I saw one of my directors very frustrated and I even saw her cry. I felt so bad because I never thought that she was so stressed out. I want to take the time and apologize to her if I didn't put in as much as my effort in. I'm so sorry Jachelle. I'm proud to have been in your group and can say I had a great time working with you, Alexa, Mark, and Jose. I'm excited to how it will turn out. !

Film...

So far I know my directors have been very stressed out because there has been an issue with our shooting schedule and I know that there has been awful communication with some of the actors and people in our group. As of now many of the people in our group find it very hard to attend the days we are shooting for certain responsibilities outside of school. I personally have to admit that I have found it extremely difficult and I apologize to my group for that. I some how feel that in the class there is a competition with the other groups on who's film is going to be better. I personally think that all three films will be great because the stories and the people working on these films know what they are doing. I'm so far trying to ignore comments that will set me off like I have done in the past. But then again I can only control myself so much. All I can say is that the people who know how I am should really warn this person and tell them that they really shouldn't push my buttons. That is all :)

Best Supporting Actor Nominees

Its that time of year where we begin to anxiously wait for the Oscars to premier so we can see what the Academy believes is the best actor/actress, movie, director ect. So far there are many prediction in who can win for best supporting actor. According to the website "Indiewire" who have already made their predictions they believe that Tommy Lee Jones from "Lincoln" will win, but the believe that who really deserves the Oscar this year is Philip Seymour Hoffman for his performance in "The Master". Although anyone could win. I believe that they can make any predictions they would like but in reality it is all up to what the academy believes was the best performance. Many may say that Alan Arkin did a good job and others may say that Robert De Niro had an amazing performance. In my opinion I think that they all had amazing performance. I absolutely loved Tommy Lee Jones had a very good performance in Lincoln.
This article caught my eye because many people have their opinions on who deserves each award for what. As a film student the Oscars have an impact on me because they will for sure open our eyes to whose should be watching and what is just a waste of our time and our money which includes why it has an impact as consumers, because we invest our money into going to watch these movies. My questions are, do the nominees support one another since they are colleagues ? And what will all these people who have taken the time to make their predictions say if they predicted completely wrong ?

Breaking Dawn Part 2 Bigger Than Any Other Twilight Film !

In this weeks article I chose again something on TWILIGHT'S BREAKING DAWN PART 2 ! The final film will put an end to the very popular saga that so many teens fell in love with. The movie will officially premiere on November 16, although the red carpet premiere is on November 12 at Nokia Theater in Los Angeles. The last film of this saga is expected to break records. Sources say that Fandango has already sold out from the pre-sale they held starting on October 1st. Although, from the previous film the most sales contender is New Moon, Summit is hoping that Part 2 will bring in more than Part 1 and New Moon.
I chose this article, because I am excited that the last film will be coming out soon since I am a huge fan of the books and the movies. As a film student it helps me realize how there is a lot of competition on who sells more in the box ! As a consumer I care, because I will be going to watch this movie at least 3 times ! And finally I really have some questions, How many of you are Twi-Hearts ? And How many of you will be going to watch this film ? I know I will !

Shailene As Mary Jane !

There will be a sequel to The Amazing Spider-man ! 
Mary Jane is back too. Although she will not be played by Kristen Dunst, people are saying that the role will be given to Shailene Woodley, the main character in the hit t.v. show The Secret Life of an American Teenager and she played a part in The Descendants. Sources say that Spider-man 2 will be released on May 2, 2014 and will in deed be in 3D. The role of Spider-man will be played by Andrew Garfield. Lets hope she does get the role.
I chose this article, because it was is about Spider-man and because it seemed interesting ! As a film student it affects me because I get to learn about the different role that are being given to actors. As a consumer it affects me because I like Spider-man and I will go watch it. My only question is how many people like the idea of Shailene getting the role ? And how many people will go and see the movie !

Another Season of "A.N.T. Farm

Disney Channel is ordering another season of A.N.T Farm. A children's show about Chyna Parks a musical prodigy. The creator of this comical show Dan Signer has also created many other shows for Disney Channel, such as The  Suite of Zack and Cody. So far A.N.T Farm is ranked number 1 for Disney Channel, meaning many children do watch this show. The recordings of the third season will begin in December and the new season is scheduled to come out next June 2013 !
I thought this article was pretty interesting because I have two younger sisters who enjoy watching this show, and I also have to admit I like the show as well. As a student it really doesn't affect me as much , but as a filmmaker it kinda of gives me the thought that children need distractions, and that distraction is television so obviously I would love to make children cartoons. As a consumer it probably would make me want to pay my television provider bill so I can see this new season ! My only question is how many kids are excited about this ? And how many parents allow their kids to watch this show ?
