Pitch A: A girl experiences the five stages of friendship which are suddenly torn when they once again become strangers.   - We produced this because we felt it was relatable. Being a group of friends, naturally our first thought was to make a film about friends. The 5 stages add depth, and we were thinking of adding an aspect of internal conflict to the film.

My group consists of four people, Lili Amblard, Hannah Reyes, Aleiah Luster, and myself. The person we are adding to our group this time around is Hannah, which was our last partner's twin.

I am 16 years old and I graduate high school in 2024. My hobbies continue to be drawing, painting, playing instruments, and baking. Drawing has really helped throughout this past course, because it allowed me to design my storyboards for the music video, commercial, and 2-minute movie projects.

Overall, I have put my skills to good use throughout the past course which have helped me with this long journey of blogging, and I will keep using them to improve as much as I c
