Hey blog! so in the last post I told you guys about the project and the general direction we wanted to go. so i this post i want to talk about some plot aspects. while we don't have whole opening put together just yet, we know some aspects we want to introduce. The conflict in the story is character vs. character and character vs. self. The first conflict is because we want to display the main character having a bad time where he lives due to an abusive situation at home. we looking to add some actual arguing or fighting into the opening to create that feeling of a chaotic, broken household. The second conflict is the character vs. self because we plan to incorporate a problem the main character has with himself and how he deals with the problem through skateboarding. we chose the genre of drama therefore we plan to incorporate some conventions into the opening. drama movies capture real life scenarios.

While discussing the project in class before filming, we are realizing there are a lot of moving pieces that are uncertain. For example, at this time we don't know if we are going to be able to use the house in Surfside to shoot (owners renovating); and we still don't know if we can get the equipment we need. We are feeling like we bit off more than we can chew. However, the team agrees we like this idea, and are willing to stick to the original ideas and do the work necessary. This project is something we are all passionate about, and we feel we can do the project and attack the challenges one task at a time. One team member is a senior, and realizes this is his last film project in high school, and he wants to go hard on this project, his last hurrah!
