Calling Card: Group Meeting #2

Second Group Meeting

Today we had our second group meeting. I was introduced to a whole new group with mostly new people and they all seemed pretty cool. We opened with an introduction of Sebastian and his film opening, which to summarize, revolved around a couple guys that came into a parking lot, then they saw a lit backpack, and then got put in a trance. The details Sebastien explained and the level of creation included in this made me think that this film was pretty creative because I did not expect this level of development. 



Another post I liked was from a person from the first group meeting. Her film opening was about a teenager running away from abusive parents by sneaking out. She talked about her setting and different props which included empty beer bottles, empty chip bags, and soda cans & snack wrappers. I liked this idea because these props are just simple everyday items so obtaining them will not be a crazy hassle.

To summarize all of the other film openings, I will list them. One of them was about a track runner that struggled with mental health, another one included a girl that got pregnant and got ghosted by her boyfriend, another one was about drug abuse and unhealthy habbits, and lastly; one more included a phone usage abuse by a teen.

Finally, we ended off by discussing the first creative critical reflection question. I answered it by discussing how my genre impacts status que and if it challenges conventions. I said that it does not because my detective mystery film opening is a somewhat common type of film for that genre and it impacts the audience by making them think about the motives and the drive of the antagonist, as well as the protagonist's.
