This term I am taking a course called Ollywood. In this class we study the art of film making. In our first unit we talked about the Pre-Production process which includes the screenplay, the storyboard, location, costume design, props, and more. We discussed screenplays and their different components. We also learned about storyboards and how they're made. Next, we talked about location scouts and how they find the best spots for shooting a movie. Lastly, we studied production design and how production designers make decisions on what props or costumes to use. One Field Experience that we went on was in Lower Wacker. In Lower Wacker we took pictures of different locations while we were assigned a specific movie genre. We had to create a storyboard based on the pictures we took. I created an action movie that had a chase scene. In Ollywood I also wrote a movie review. For this Action Project, we had to choose a movie and analyze the costumes, props, locations, dialogue, and more. I chose to do a movie review on Kill Bill because it's a sick movie. Although this was my first action project in Ollywood, it is so far my favorite. I got a chance to write about one of my favorite movies and be in Roger Elbert's shoes.
In conclusion, I'm glad I got the experience I did during this unit. I've never written a movie review before so it was very challenging at first. Overall, I had so much fun writing this paper because I watched the film several times during the drafting period. I hope I have the opportunity to write many more in the future.
