Introducing me!

-

     My name is Dara Sedaka. I am 15, turning 16 in April and a sophomore in high-school. I will start off with my family and households. I have one sister who I get a long with well, she is in college now so I don't get to see her much but we communicate a lot. I have a mom, a dad, a step mom, and a step dad. My parents got divorced when i was 3 so I've known my step parents my whole life and I love them dearly. A house is boring without pets so I have 5! one dog with my dad, two dogs with my mom and two cats with my mom. Moving onto myself, Im not quite sure what I want to be when I'm older. Ever since i was little i had dreams of being a veternarian but not anymore. Then a few years ago I wanted to go into the film industry but i realized its a lot harder to make it in that industry than it sounds. The only thing that I know about my future is that I am so excited for college, moving out of Florida, and will try my best to be as successful as I can. I have dreams of moving to New York or Washington DC. I would even like to do graduate school in NYC if I could. In terms of present tense, I push myself to be the best i can so i can have access to many opportunities when i'm older.

Critical Reflection

  “Time For Dinner” the short film portrays imagination through a young child's eyes. Toys may just look like plastic things with no life to them to us now, but we did not always think that way. Adults once too would sit for hours at a time playing with those ‘plastic things’. Somehow, our brain was able to create a whole new world with characters we created, and sometimes we would forget the real world for a second. It seems as though no one truly recognizes or appreciates imagination, and that is exactly what I wanted to show with this short film.  My movie represents children's imagination and how things children see in everyday life can affect their mind. Society has become a scary world to live in and sometimes it is hard to shield the young generation from it. A parent could innocently be watching the news and a storyline of a dangerous crime can come on while their child is near. This new concept of crimes like theft, killing, and other things can cause a child to thi...

  CAMS:  There is no music video for our song choice, Are we still friends by Tyler The Creator, so we looked at his othe songs to do our research. We noticed a lot of usage of tracking shots. A character would be seen traveling from place to place. Also, the camera would pan across the landscape to show establishing shots a lot. There are also a lot of close ups and POV shots.  CLAMPS: The costumes are regular attire for the most part, nothing exactly special. Lighting depends on the scene, but a lot of his videos have an outside setting . As far as acting, we can see real emotion in all of the actors' facial expressions. The music is obviously the song in the background. Props used a lot were phones, food, and cars. The setting was generally outside, with a lot of nature, or inside with low depressing lighting because most of his songs are on the sad side.  SOUND: The sound is the song in the background, there are a decent amount of beat drops in Tyler The Creator'...

      For my group project some may say I got lucky. I get to work with my three other friends. This may not seem like the best idea but i know they are smart hardworking individuals. I will start with myself and my task in this project. I said in my intro that I have some talent in the artistry department so that will be my job. For the story board it is important that is is easy to understand with well drawn pictures.      S econd we have Mila, I met mila last year and which is surprising because of everything with COVID. she has a very intelligent mind and a good creative eye. this means she is our editor. When we need something taken out, special effects, sound effects etc we've got our handy dandy mila.                                                                ...
