Our teams focus statement "Asha moves away" tells the story about how Lani's best friend Asha moves away leaving them very sad and full with sorrow. In the beginning of the story Asha comes to the new school ready for a new start and she meets Lani, they start hanging out a lot and having fun but one day Asha tells her the news that she's moving away. Our team will try our best to tell this story by trying to make it relate to them and have them feel some emotion while watching this. I think our team chose a really good focus statement to do for this project because it tells a good story and the focus statement tells you whats its about.
The lesson that we are trying to teach our audience is when someone you are very close too and you love is gone, try your best to move on and make new friends. Kind of like the old saying, "If you love something (or someone) set it free" ... and hope that they come back! "Move On", easy to say, hard to explain, harder to do. A lot of people suffered from loss of loved ones and I feel this project will relate to those people as a life story, it can help people get through tough times if they learn the lesson that we are trying to put out there.
Some of the worst moments as a team is not finishing on time, during the 2 scene teaser and rough cut we barely made the cut. Also sometimes we would disagree but only on the very little things. Another thing is sometimes splitting up the work evenly but we fixed that.. Some of our best moments as a team is when we all laugh together when filming our scenes. During a scene Asha had to jump to make it look like she was floating across the room and we ended up taking a really funny picture of her in the air and I enjoy moments like that. Another good moment we've had as a team is laughing about the music and sound affects when adding it into imovie.
