 A soccer athlete gets badly injured for the last game of season and he has to recover and overcome those obstacles for the next season. 

Group idea

 This year i decided not to work with anyone. I felt like if i work by myself it would be less chaotic and stressful for me. Last year for AS level i was in a group of three and to be honest i should have worked by myself. Yes being in a group of three made it easier for each one of the group but it was so stressful because each person in the group saw things in a different perspective and that might be good for certain things such as filming and all of that but these blogs and some other things, there were so many disagreements. I still think it will be difficult of course since i am by myself with no one to get help from but i have my own ideas and plans that i would like for it to become that at the end result. In the other group either some would not say or help out with what they did so the other two would be clueless and have to do it on our own which was not too great. I have my own idea and image of how i want this short story to look and with me working by myself i could possibly be able to get as close as possible to what i want. I know it won't be easy but i hope to accomplish it all by myself. I worry that i will have some complications with filming and editing but i can do it on my own someway and somehow. I do have my own equipments and some potential actors and some people to help me set up my filming equipment. I have my own camera, my computer for editing, and my phone for extra footage and other stuff. I have already started to write down some ideas and some other plans for my short story. I have one in mind that should be the right one and should actually be the one that works out eh most and i hope to do a great job and accomplish it all on my own. Plus adding on to the working by myself i also don't know many people in A level this year. I know a couple of others but we aren't close and this pandemic situation it will be difficult to be working in groups and my parents would also rather me work by myself than put them and myself in danger.

Welcome Back

    Its been a while hasn't it. Let me re-introduce myself for you. My name is Luisa, i am a student at Fort Lauderdale high school and this is my second year taking Media Studies. When picking my classes for my first year of high school was honestly really scary and fun. There was so much to pick but i knew i wanted to get involved in a class that worked with cameras and technology. When i first came to the school all excited to pick my electives i did not know what Media Studies was but once they had said it involved using cameras i knew i had to pick that as one of my electives. I had a couple friends who also picked it but they were all in different class periods. When i first got into class i was scared because i did not know anyone so i thought i would have to work all alone but i later come to find out one of my old friends from middle school was in the same class which then made me meet new people and have the best time.When i first chose this class i thought it was something completely different than what it is if I'm being honest. I thought we were going to be working on how to work cameras and how to record films and how films were made. I am not disappointed on what it actually is. Taking AS level was honestly a great experience on learning the beginner steps of film making. I learned a lot through the whole year even though by the end of it we got affected by covid-19. Learning how to edit and work cameras was a very fun experience and it helped realize how much effort goes into making short or even normal films. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication which i completely stand on. I had a lot of fun working with my groups last year, i made new friends in the class and it was a very fun experience. Going out to film was honestly one of the best things, we had fun while doing all the hard work which at the end i believe payed off really well.I hope this year in A level i learn more about the film industry. As my teachers talked about what we had coming up for us already had me excited to know what we would be doing next.
