My Inspiration

     When we started this project, my partner and I were very lost. We didn't have any idea of what we were going to do, so to pass the time in class, we scrolled through a lot of sample projects, and I got a lot of ideas, and I saw 2 very good ones. There are so many projects, and I would just randomly click one, so I don't have the video of the exact one it was, but I know that I was watching one, and it started with a TV broadcast, and then it was about a detective who was watching the broadcast and was trying to figure it out, and that really sparked something because I really like the idea of that TV broadcast introducing the film opening with a crime news broadcast. 
   My teacher also was showing us a sample project that was inspired by the movie "Se7en," and I really liked it. It was just a bunch of cuts of razors and blades and blood and these chemicals, and at the end it showed all of these murder weapons and stuff being organized. I really like that because that's sort of what I want to do, like show off the weapons and his setup, and I watched the Se7en opening film, and I really liked that too. The scene in the movie Se7en is scary because it neatly and cleanly shows murder weapons and objects. By saying the whole story each close-up gives each item a feeling of importance. By showing weapons and other stuff in these types of shots that connect to the murder, Im tryna get the same feeling. Another student project that started with a news story worked as inspiration for me. My project is about the murderer, while theirs was about a detective solving a case. My idea started when I saw the film, which also showed me how news can instantly grab the peoples attentions.
