My CR For The Short Film

  My CR Essay For The Short Film           A short film about bullying can effectively represent social groups and issues by highlighting the various power dynamics at play within a school or community setting. The film can depict how bullying often arises out of a desire to establish dominance over others, and how this can be reinforced by social hierarchies and group dynamics. By portraying these complex social dynamics in a realistic and nuanced way, a short film about bullying can spark important conversations about the ways in which social structures and systems contribute to bullying, and how we can work together as a community to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for everyone.

Planning For My Music Video

Since we want to capture a scene with the friends on the beach, beach towels, hats and beach balls will be present. Costumes - This part will be very easy in our opinion as we will have regular swimming wear or just causal clothing.

Nothing to covered or revealing will be disagreed upon as the actors concern worths more. I'm sure most outfits people would chose are short pants with a t-shirt. Schedule - Be aware that these dates might not accurate as we will need to see for ourselves if these can work with our schedules. 11/16/2021, our group will finalize our ideas of what we want for this project. 1...
