I'M BaaaAaack...

Hey!!! It's nice to 'see' you again ;) 
Welcome to Flamin' Hot Capybaras Deux, the continuation of my other Aice Media blog. Here I will share my journey as I produce [YET ANOTHER] portfolio project under quarantine (Yay). 

It is so weird to think that I completed my AS portfolio project when quarentine just started and I basically haven't left my house since then! A year later and we are doing it all over again 🤯.

I am still not entirely sure what I want to make, I an not really interested in the trailer package, so it is really a choice between the short film, music video, and documentary. Of course I want to be creative and challenge myself, but I also recognize that the only actors at my disposal are my mother and two sisters and that my locations are very limited.

To help me make my decision I have made a PROs/CONs List
Short FilmMusic VideoDocumentary
Pros:
-Cool creative challenge

-Artistic freedom

-Something new to try
Cons:
-No experience

-Requires speaking actors

-Technically challenging
Pros:
-Some experience

-Artistic freedom/Fun

-I have a couple of songs in mind that I could ask for permission
Cons:
-Not many locations at my disposal

-Requires props and more elaborate costumes

-I need to become a pro at editing
Pros:
-Some expereince

-Research based

-I already have some ideas from when we did the project
Cons:
-No actors

-Interviews with experts would have to be over zoom

-Good interviewees are hard to find

I am still not sure since they are all mostly even- I am leaning towards the music video option though! I'll give it some thought and get back to you as soon as I make a decision. I need to make sure I don't make my ideas too big and that I am creative yet practical.
