AICE Media Studies

Pitch A:  Someone hops into an Uber and the Uber driver isn’t headed to the correct location. I think this pitch could be a good choice since it fits into the thriller or horror genres very easily. The pitch works with realistic things that people are scared of happening. There are also good plenty of possible areas to make turning points as well as uses of symbolism in this short film. Though a down side could potentially be access to a car. Pitch B:  A student at home along with an intruder. I like the possibilities with this pitch as it also fits into the same categories as the last pitch. However, there are most likely a lot of films dealing with this idea so it might not be as original as I would want. It is very doable and filming could turn out well along with some creative shots and angles. Though similarly to the last pitch, access to a house isn't guaranteed. Pitch C:  An athlete who struggles under the pressure of his role. This pitch fits well with my gro...

For this short film I have decided to work with a partner. Unlike last year where I worked with some other people, for this short film I will be working with a new partner named Dartamian. For my first and second projects last school year I worked in a two person group. This worked well as my partner and I were able to manage the time effectively. My partner and I were also able to rely on each others abilities. For my third project I worked in a group of four people. In the end my group was only able to just skate by. I would say this is because my group didn't communicate very well. One of my group members worked really well with me but the others weren't always as reliable as the group needed them. This was only really concerning to me as I still needed to finish the project at the time and things were moving very slowly and with not a lot of effort. However, I did just barely make it through so it wasn't the worst situation ever. Also, I don’t see where there could be a...

Hi, my name is Jack Strien. Last school year I took AICE Media Studies at the AS level. I'm now sixteen years old, in the eleventh grade, and starting to take AICE Media Studies at the A level. On my AS level AICE exam I didn't get the score I had hoped for. This year, on the A level exam I intend to make myself better prepared for the exam and receive a higher score. I believe I can preform much better on my AICE Media Studies exam this year than I did last year. Even though they aren't the same exam I think I have a much better understanding of how I should treat my studying and preparing for my AICE exams and will try my absolute best on the A level AICE Media Studies exam. This school year I have developed new goals, but I still intend to get my AICE diploma. In my ninth grade year I earned two AICE credits. Last year, my tenth grade year, I earned four AICE credits. In all I now have six AICE credits and I'm taking three more AICE classes this year. I should have n...
