Get Your Popcorn.. Let’s Watch A Movie

 Now that the group has chosen what genre and concept we want our final project to be, it’s time to watch a few films that follow the conventions of the sports genre. Today’s film will be Creed 2, directed by Steven Caple Jr. and starring Michael B. Jordan alongside Sylvester Stallone.

What elements (Conventions) of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this 

movie have?  

The elements of this picture that relate to our genre would be that it is louder, grander, and greater than the first one. By maintaining an emphasis on the humanity of its main characters, it is able to correct itself. More than any punch delivered in the ring, whether Rocky will see his son again and the tribulations of the recent Creed couple are the subjects of greater suspense. The boxing scenes are fascinating and fun. Also, it gives fans a feast of entertainment. 

What elements (Conventions) of the genre did the movie have that you like? 

I enjoy how Adonis and Viktor's battle scenes are filled with breath-taking action thanks to director Caple Jr. the camera is placed in Adonis' shoes in the point-of-view images. a strong plot, together with outstanding choreography, cinematography, and sound mixing. Caple Jr. so completely immerses the spectators in the ring. You nearly feel the body punches and you'd believe Viktor is targeting you. The final triumph is thrilling. its stunning variety of long, balletic, and complex camera movements. the full boxing battle that lasts for four and a half minutes without interruption. 

What elements (Conventions) of the genre did the movie have that did not appeal to you? 

The element I don’t like is trying to keep a side character as relevance basically trying to have two characters clash for a main character. Although Rocky is excellent, it is also the reason for my criticism of the movie. There is just too much of him. Rocky and I are confined to the waiting room while Bianca is giving birth. I feel like we should have been seeing the reactions of Adonis. The sense of trying to figure out how rocky fits into the scene doesn’t work. It was as if they wanted to waste time and have him appear for the rocky fans.

No One Likes a Third Wheel, But Now We’re a Car!

       For the previous projects, I have continuously worked with Joshua Newell and Aidan Jones. I have found that working with them has produced consistently good work. We are able to communicate well and our schedules coincide, allowing us to get a lot of work done. While all of this is true, our group decided to add another member to the mix. We have decided to team up with Randy Sweeting.     There were several reasons why we wanted to add another member to the group. Most of them came from our last project. When filming the music video, we had trouble splitting the work load. It was a bigger project than the first, and we wanted to include more actors. This posed a challenge to the three of us, because we would all have to be present on camera. Additionally, we wanted a different perspective. The three of us agree on a lot of things. As a result, we sometimes miss out on better ideas or more efficient practices because we are so likeminded.  ...

Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

       For our first major assignment, we're working on a commercial. To get the job done I picked two of my good friends that I know can produce good work - Joshua Newell and Aidan Jones. Both are amazing at conjuring up creative ideas.       Joshua will be mainly handling the acting and props for the commercial. He's perfect for conveying the kind of emotion for this project. As my brother, I know he can handle a heavy workload and still create excellent work.  Joshua      My other teammate, Aidan, is just as competent. A creative and great student, Aidan will be handling most of the project's directing. Aidan is a big thinker who can get the job done efficiently. His perspective will add an invaluable quality to our work.  Aidan      Lastly, I will be doing all of the major editing for the project. I have some experience with free programs and am excited to bring that to the project. I will also be aiding...
