A Few Changes to Our Narrative

       This last class we finally finished up our final story boarding to now begin our production. We are a bit behind schedule but setbacks are what makes us grow no? At least that’s what I want to believe. Anyways…The changes we’ve decided on isn’t necessarily on our opening but it is involving the extra thirty seconds that roll over after the actual opening to our film. Instead of having a teacher speak to our character about entering into a writing festival, we decided on creating a scene where our character is more by herself in her discovery. We created a scene where Malia will be in her car and she receives an email from a writing program that she had got into. 

       We’ve decided on this change because we believe that this part of our narrative continues on the idea of her future and how it’s going to look like versus how she want it to look like. I believe this addition will also create the realistic idea if college life and how while even if you get the opportunity to go somewhere especially out of state, it is not always in your best interest to go along with it in terms of money. I know many seniors now and even college students who go through this struggle and it’s a difficult choice in high school going on to college. Malia will be represented as one of these students who have a difficult choice to make for her future.
