LET THE SHOW BEGIN

Hi, I'm Liz! I am currently in a wonderful Media Studies class in which I will create my own original film opening.  How exciting is that? My film opening can be about almost any topic I choose, and  I am not going to lie, this freedom has made me a little bit scared and confused.  What will my movie be about? What genre will it belong to?

Today, as I was discussing this project with my family, my little sister arrived from her dance class. She was extremely excited about her new Hip Hop routine. I saw that excitement as a key to inspiration. What if I make a dance film! When the dance film genre came to my mind, I was thrilled. I had always thought about making a romantic film, but I did not want to delve into the same cliché girl meets boy film. Therefore, this dance film genre will really allow me to be creative, play with music and sound, and even choreograph new dance routines.


I danced for 5 years and then sadly quit. Dance and music are inside me, and are two things I am really passionate about. Making this film opening will bring back really happy memories, and I can not wait to show this passion through my film opening.


I've got to get my feet to start moving!



I have attached a video of my 6th grade graduation dance. This was the last day I danced in a group. The upbeat music and vivid colors in the video just make me even more excited to make my film opening a dance film.

  1. Your blog is absolutely amazing! I love the background and the entire premise of your idea. It attracted me into the story right away and I'm curious to see what your final project looks like. Also, I'm extremely jealous of how far along you are in the project lol. I'm definitely going to use your blog in order to see how I want mine to look like, both aesthetically and content wise.
