Intro to the CCR

 As I near the end of the editing involving in the movie opening, I am looking into the CCR that are part of the AICE media studies grade, I have been urged about their importance by my teacher the whole year but now is about the time to start working on them. In class we are watching a past students CCR's and it is helping me get ideas of what to do for my own CCR's. He did a podcast where he interviewed himself and basically just explained the entire movie. This is pretty interesting because he was able to do this all by himself and he just altered his voice a little, so it did not sound like the same person. This gives me a little bit of an idea where I can do a podcast because all I would need to do is audio and it would not require me to make a video, I would be able to cover which ever question I wanted to but by just looking at them I would probably choose to do the question about how my production skills developed throughout the project because I could have someone interview me as an up and coming producer because it is technically my first film and I would just cover how I have grown this year as I learned more and more about media and how to create it. 

As I watch his other CCR's I see he did a presentation, a vlog, and a documentary. Overall, just by looking and watching his CCR's I really like the idea of the vlog because it gives a more personal aspect of what went into creating the film and it is very conversational and not very strict. My idea for that is going to be me talking like I'm in a vlog and I will just be walking around different places that we filmed and just explain what we did, with this I would answer the first question about challenging conventions and representing social issues. As I enter adulthood I realize that a lot of people my age like to spend their money sports betting which is not very good because they end up losing a lot of money, so our film uses a bit of dialogue to introduce sports betting as the mafia's way of making money and how unfair it can be showing how it can be not good. And overall challenging convention inside mafia movies about them being loyal we introduced corruption and jealousy where the traitor is coming from inside the own mafia. 

As I come up with ideas to answer question 2 and 4 of the CCR's I will be sure to let you know but for now I am going to begin working on the 1st and 3rd question.
