Portfolio Project (project choice!)

 Hello! It's time to start my portfolio project, yay!! This is year I will be working with one of my best friends since the 6th grade, Corina (we have the same name, partially the reason we became friends). Corina and I have decided to partner up because we want to make a comedy short film (with aspects of romance). We have similar humor and like similar things (since we basically grew up together) that can help inspire our short film. We decided to do a short story because we had an idea for a story with a beginning, middle, and end. 

We also both want to study communications in college, therefore, we both love marketing, which we need to do for this short film by making an instagram and a post card for a film festival. We both have good ideas for this aspect of the project that align, so we are also very excited to begin this aspect of the project.

I found this comedy short film, which I found to be a really good example

Though we want our story to have some aspects of romance, we found this to be a really solid example of comedy, especially since that is the main premise of the film. I loved how this short film had a clear beginning, middle, and end, which is something my project partner and I really need to make sure is clear, and  may be difficult to do in only five minutes, but this example helps me understand how that can be done in a short amount of time. The short film aspect is perfect since we know we want to have a full storyline, we had thought about doing trailers but we ultimately decided this would be the best choice for us. I'm so excited to begin this project!
