The digetic sound, in this film is the wind rustling, as well as things moving in the house 

 which portrays the quietness. 

There is also non-digetic music that begins as she is counting which shows that  

the beginning of the film is starting  

The score at the beginning of the film shows that the characters are in a bright mood,  

As the film continues the music becomes dramatic as the character is in the film.

The camera angle is at medium eye level which emphasis the character,  

who is focused on.   

The lighting represents that they, are in an environment in which they are comfortable.  

The prop in the period is the bike which represents her childhood.

  1. What elements of the genre that you like? 

We like the role, the character, and the tension. We like the role because it lets you Understand the values and intentions of the characters. We like the characters because it lets us See the types of characters within the film, such as the mentor, and the antagonist, the Mentor and the love interest. 

  1. What elements of the genre do not appeal to you? 

Some elements that does appeal to us is the mood, and the symbols of the film. 

We don’t like the mood because the mood changes throughout the film, and it may be hard 

To convey. We also don’t like the symbols of the film because it may be hard to represent

       For the second project we were assigned I decided to work in a group. My group consists of Jorge Lopez, and Christian Bundalevski. I typically like working in group settings because I feel like the different perspectives help provide a better final product. Obviously, I have had group projects in the past that were not so stellar experiences but I feel as if this project will go much more smoothly. Being able to choose groups is very nice as opposed to the teacher deciding.  Jorge Lopez, I have known for many years. We first became friends in the 5th grade and stayed friends all throughout middle school. We ended up going to the same high school together and spent much of last year in discord calls together along with another friend, but that is a story for another day.

He is also very funny but not overly distracting in a group setting.  Now Christian I have also known for years. W

We also experimented with different sounds or music clips but we ended up staying with what we had before.    While watching Rashawn edit we all became curious about how the program he uses worked. I am learning a bit of adobe due to my marketing essentials but only the photoshop aspect. I know next to nothing of Premiere Cut Pro. So Rashawn came up with a proposal. He decided to make us a copy file and we each fiddled around with the software a little bit which was quite fun.    We used the lighting options to put a black and white box over our faces and watched some clips play by, that feature was my personal favorite. We also speed up and slowed
