All of us Hawaii students abroad at the University of Roehampton are required to take at least one course by the UH professor joining us in London, this semester it is Anne Misawa. Anne is an Academy for Creative Media professor back at UH Mānoa and the course of hers that I took was ACM 384 - Diversity of film in the UK. Regardless of my lack of knowledge in film, I learned quite a bit about the hard work and dedication that it takes to complete a project in this industry. Over the course of the semester we viewed multiple films and plays related to UK directors and were required to keep an updated blog site about our thoughts and opinions on each film. Here is the link to my ACM 384 blog: https://ericasfilmblog.weebly.com/blog
One of my major assignments for this class was to create a short 4-5 minute film script. Yes, this was a very short script, but the process to complete it wasn’t short. There was a certain approach my classmates and I had to take to make sure we had a properly developed plot that was easy to understand by our audiences. My script consisted of an unstable relationship between a dad and his father that lead him to spread similar attitudes over the relationship he has with his teenage son. It was difficult putting together a story but now I can say that I know what a script should look like when it comes to formatting! A most memorable moment of this course was participating and witnessing a film production directed and brought to life by a couple of our classmates toward the end of the semester. I got to serve as an extra on one of the films and just being able to see people in action directing, filming, and acting was very amusing.
