Blog Post 10: Merner Mystery Short Film Summary

 Welcome to the Blogging Brooke,


    This week in class we were able to be creative and use our skills to create a short film. It was interesting to be able to experience beginner film making at its finest. My group was able to use our knowledge of cinematography, lighting, and sound to create our short film called Merner Mystery. 

    Merner Mystery is a short film created by Brooke Duncan starring Ola Zugaj, Anna Gawron, and Grace Toole. This film is about a volleyball coach who was mysteriously murdered in Merner Field House.  Athletes Grace Toole and Anna Gawron were the last ones to see Coach Ola alive, so they become the prime suspects.

    Investigator Brooke Duncan is called to the crime scene. She begins asking questions to both Anna and Grace and taking down notes to try and figure out what happened. She did her research and came to a conclusion after taking the statements from both suspects. Investigator Duncan came to the conclusion that when Grace went to the vending machine for a Fanta, she had poisoned it before handing it over to coach Ola. 


Rest In Peace: Coach Ola Zugaj


Here is a link to my short film if you are interested in watching it! If you love it, make sure to leave a good review on Google! Thanks so much.

Blog Post 14: The Social Dilemma

 Welcome to the Blogging Brooke,  Today I would like to talk about the Netflix film called The Social Dilemma. I had already watched this documentary prior to this film class earlier on in the semester for my social media class.  In this blog post, I will define my key takeaways from the film. First I will start off with how many dilemmas I was able to count in the film.  At minute 6:40, Tristan Harris, a former Google design enthusiast and co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology, names 7 dilemmas. These seven include a cacophony of grievances and scandals, data stealing, tech addiction, fake news, political polarization, elections getting hacked. Cynthia Wong named a few more offline harm dilemmas including hate speech, manipulating public opinion, and inciting violence. There is also populism, mass chaos, and lack of trust.   In total, I counted thirteen dilemmas. One in detail would be fake news. Fake news is always harmful to society. It causes p...

Blog Post 1: My Interest in Film

 Welcome to the Blogging Brooke      Today I would like to share with you how my interest in film came to be. My first experiences with film began at a young age. I was always sitting by the television mesmerized by all of the colors on the screen. As I got older and learned to understand the storylines, my interest in film sky-rocketed.       The first film that I can recall watching and understanding is The Little Mermaid. I remember this because I had an obsession with mermaids and the ocean. I loved going to the beach with my family and pretending that I was a mermaid, so this is the movie that really stuck out to me. Additionally, my favorite show at the time was H2O, and to no surprise, it is a show about girls who grow mermaid tails when they touch water.     The Little Mermaid is making a live-action film, the trailer for it was just released a couple of days ago. I was ecstatic after I watched it and cannot wait for the fil...

Blog Post 13: JAWS

 Welcome to the Blogging Brooke, We had the opportunity to watch the cinematic masterpiece; Jaws . Jaws is a horror film that was released in the year 1975 and was directed by Steven Spielberg. I watched this movie for the first time when I was about twelve years old, and getting the chance to watch it at age twenty-one, I understood and appreciated the film and all that took place from a cinema graphic standpoint.  I would just like to vent and appreciate the camera angles, greenscreen use, CGI, and the actors. Throughout the film I felt as if I was living on Amity Island with everybody else. This film is different from other Horror films I watch. I am used to watching films like; Annabelle, The Conjuring, The Black Phone, IT, and The Visit , where the intensity of the movie does not start right at the beginning of the film. However, in Jaws, the film opens with an intensity grabbing scene because we see a woman run into the ocean away from her boyfriend, and gets eaten by a ...
