Blog Post 15: That's a Wrap!

 Welcome to the Blogging Brooke,


I would first like to start off by thanking each of my viewers, you made this blogging experience one to remember. I was so happy to see the interactions with my blog posts and the nice comments that made me want to keep posting. However, I am saddened to say that this will be my last blog post. My film class has come to an end, therefore, The Blogging Brooke must come to an end as well. 


In this blog post, I will be talking about my experience taking my very first ever film class, and naming the different movies and short stories we watched as a class throughout the semester. This class taught me to recognize the little details that go into the making of a film, from the cinematography to the placement of the actors, and the makeup used to gain a feeling from the audience. I never realized before taking this class the entirety of what it takes to be an actor, director, videographer, editor etc. However, after taking this class, I am able to see the beauty that is film, more in depth. 

I want to thank my Professor, Dr. Bonnie Kyburz, for showing up everyday to class excited to talk about films or her/her husbands job working in the film industry. Her excitement about this topic was evident from the first day of class, and helped keep the class engaged because of how powerfully she felt about film. She is such an amazing professor, and a beautiful soul and human being, and I was able to learn a lot from her this semester. So, Professor Kyburz, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you did and taught us during this class. 

In this class, I was able to watch and experience familiar and unfamiliar movies.

Familiar Movies: 

Get Out

Jaws

The Social Dilemma

Rear Window


Unfamiliar Movies: 

Snowy the Turtle

Pan's Labyrinth

Me, You, and Everyone We Know

Lost in Translation

Now I will rank these movies from favorite to least favorite, and this is just my opinion, all of them were fantastic film with different elements

  1.  Get Out
  2. Jaws
  3. Rear Window
  4. Me, You, and Everyone We Know
  5. Snowy the Turtle
  6. Lost in Translation

  8. Pan's Labyrinth
I hope that you (my viewers) are able to take a chance and watch all of these films. I am appreciative that my professor introduced me to them and hope that you all eventually watch them. Below, I will list some movies that I think would be a great addition to this class. 

  1. Grease
  2. Dunkirk
  3. La La Land
  4. Lady Bird
  5. The Joker

I thank you all again for being with me throughout this blogging journey, and hope that you were able to gather some key takeaways from each of the blog posts. I love you all tremendously.
