 Hey guys I'm Sarah Thervil, senior at Fort Lauderdale high school. I was born in Haiti and moved to the United when I  was 4 years old. I am my mothers fourth out of six children and the only daughter she has.  Even though I moved so young I am bilingual. After taking  three years of French in high school, I sometimes consider myself trilingual. I'm 17 years old, and my favorite color is Blue. I enjoy dancing 💃, however when I'm not I enjoy being behind the Camera. Growing up I've never had the confidence while standing in front of the camera. Sophomore year of high school, I decided to try standing on the other side. During my photography class 📸I realized standing behind the camera fitted me. I enjoy giving people the confidence I never had while being in front of the camera. Seeing how much I loved photography, I choose to take Media Studies this year. When I'm not standing behind a camera, I am at work. I recently got a job to help me be more financially dependent on myself and not my parents. Lately if I'm not doing something school, media or job related I'm worrying about College applications. Being a senior this is the stress that comes along with it. Between all of this I guess you could say I have a full plate.

Au Revoir, Sarah T.

Genre research: All the Bright Places

-

  Welcome back to our next and final genre research movie. The movie we chose was All the Bright Places.     The first thing we noticed about the opening sequence was the location since they were on a bridge.     The viewers can automatically assume that the bridge has some meaning to one of the main characters since she was standing on it. We want our location to have importance to the opening scene. We want people to be able to guess that the location holds an importance but not exactly what’s going to happen just by seeing the location. Viewers don’t learn the true meaning of the location in the opening sequence however they do learn the meaning of it by the first 10 minutes. Since we’ll only be filming the opening scene we will show the true meaning at the end. The opening scene only was at one location. It did go by fast but however our video will need more time to make sure the point goes through properly. The Mise-en-Scene matched perfectly. The male main...

Research blog: Commercial

 Hey guys, I'm back with another blog. When I found out I had to do a commercial million of ideas came to mind. I than shortened the list to sport drinks, however, choosing which kind of sport drink was a no brainer. What better brand to do than Gatorade. Before starting my Gatorade commercial, I did some research on what other producer have done in sports drink commercials. Majority of the commercials the actors are partaking in physical activity.  The Mise-en-Scène in each commercial are very similar, the costumes consist of tennis shoes, leggings, tights, shorts, a sports bra, loose t-shirt, bathing suit or a sports teams uniform. The settings are sometime, inside of the gym, or outside on the court or field. Props are usually simple things like a ball, football, basketball etc. , a towel and the drink.  Based on the setting of the commercial, the lighting changes. The drink usually look real cold and icy. While the actor looks hot and sweaty. Some other conventio...

Genre research: Black Panther

  Welcome back to my blog. These next few blogs will be about movies my group and I chos e to research and use to build our opening scene on.   The first  movie we chose was Black Panther. The first thing that the audience  hears is a child and their parent voice.  The story turned out to be the  background  story  of where the dad is from Wakanda. Which  leads the movie to a sandbox  type  of thing that  demonstrated  and drawn out everything the dad was saying as he was saying it.  Once the story was done being told, the year and place of the Movie was displayed on the scree n, 1992  California.  During this  the audience can clearly see the relationship between the characters. Since when the king walked in the two people who were  previously in the room bowed down to him and had to hide their weapons.  The Mise-en- Scene  also made sense. The  two men  living in California wo...
