THE ORDINARY GUY A Film by Jarius Brown Dana Robinson and Cheri Wilson

HOW DOES YOUR PRODUCT USE OR CHALLENGE CONVENTIONS AND HOW DOES IT REPRESENT SOCIAL GROUPS OR ISSUES? • -Our film best represents the genre of a thriller. Just like many others, my film builds suspense within the audience. Our choice of dialogue and sound (both nondiegetic and diegetic) aid to create the overall ominous effect throughout the movie’s plot. • -Our movie depicts the social issue of kidnapping. Our everyday monsters and maniacs come to us as family and friends we know, or just every other “Ordinary Guy. ”

HOW DOES YOUR PRODUCT ENGAGE WITH AUDIENCES AND HOW WOULD IT BE DISTRIBUTED AS A REAL MEDIA TEXT? • The movie works to captivate the audience in many different ways. Our first outreach mechanism was to open the movie with everyday life activities. That’s a walk in the park, some yoga, a game of golf. Activities to fit all walks of people. Secondly, we made the serial killer relatable and friendly rather than someone with obvious social issues and distraught allowing the audience to gain trust with that character before revealing his true intent.

HOW DID YOUR PRODUCTION SKILLS DEVELOP THROUGHOUT THIS PROJECT? • During the making of this film, I personally gained tons of production skills. To begin with we had to scope out the perfect setting for our movie. This include light, noise level, and spacing. • Also we incorporated tons of different camera angles and effects. From jump cuts to panning, we had it all.

HOW DID YOU INTEGRATE TECHNOLOGIES-SOFTWARE, HARDWARE, AND ONLINE-IN THIS PROJECT? • During the making of this film I got to work with many different types of technology and software's. From to word press to You. Tube to Pinnacle. I integrated technology non stop to make this film come together. • Every part of our filming process had to be documented on my blog in word press in order for my teacher as well as Cambridge to track my activities throughout this project • At the end of filming my group used pinnacle editing software to make our movie into the masterpiece it was made to be. Lastly, we exported our film onto You. Tube be seen by all.
