I wasn't very happy when I was first assigned with "Employment". I thought it was a really complicated topic. But as I got to know more about "Employment", it wasn't too hard at all. Our film was mainly focused on Youth Unemployment because we felt that it was an important issue.
At the beginning, the research and planning was really hard to do. We first wrote some articles on some of the subtopics. After that, we were finally allowed to create a storyboard. I was really excited when we wrote the script and I couldn’t wait for the filming. Everything was so hard at first but with the help of Mrs. McDonald, Ms. Roliff, Alberto, Huss, Ben, Lisa, Michael, Jennifer, and Venus, it wasn’t so hard at all. During this assignment, we also had the chance to: create professional business cards, brochures, Flash, invitations, display boards, articles, scripts, storyboards, etc. Everything was so much fun!
After months of hard work, we are finally done! I’ve enjoyed doing the documentary film project. It had been a great learning experience for me. The best part about doing this assignment was adding the special effects. I've really enjoyed the filming and acting too. At the Film Festival, there were a lot of people. Our parents and relatives came and so did reporters and the TIG people. Everyone was just blown away by our films. We were even on the newspaper! If I were offered to do another film, I'd do it!
