Reflection/Evaluation for 7/2/11

Reflection:

Today's overview of the upcoming semester's work was intriguing, and I now look forward to creating my own projects with future knowledge. The focus on sound and techniques in using this to evoke emotional responses in the audience is particularly interesting, and I look forward to learning more about manipulating sound and how this can be used to alter the perception of a scene in a film.

We gathered into groups to begin writing a script based on the AOI, Health and Social Education.Using Celtx was a new experience for me, and it is very convenient and useful for script writing. I am happy to be accustomed to it already so that in future I will be able to use it more efficiently and creatively.


Evaluation:

Improving my understanding of the AOI would be useful, and going to the IB website to learn more about it would help a lot if it is necessary to edit the script. Reading the scripts of successful movies may also give me a better idea of how to write a good script.

I think I worked quite well today, remaining focused and not being distracted. The writing of the script was fun and yet effective, since we were able to complete it within the allotted time. I particularly enjoyed adding a line that both provided humour and also broadened the focus of the scene to include a different aspect of the AOI. I think that working effectively is important, but the fact that I had fun as a group while doing so was a very good experience.

Although our lack of knowledge today contributed slightly to some delays, a similar approach in the future to learning and working would be successful.
