This was not an easy film project. It was hard, difficult, and challenging.We have to use all of our narrative skills that we&#8217;ve learned in the past two years and apply them to a brand new script that we would develop and eventually produce into a final project. I think this project really tested my limits but allowed me to break through in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"580\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LandonQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-05-at-9.52.00-AM-1024x580.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LandonQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-05-at-9.52.00-AM-1024x580.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LandonQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-05-at-9.52.00-AM-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LandonQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-05-at-9.52.00-AM-768x435.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LandonQ\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-05-at-9.52.00-AM.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What you see in the above image is the pitch deck for my first narrative idea. We wanted to go through the entire filmmaking process as a class so we can learn how they do it in the industry. So I created and presented this pitch deck to the class. It didn&#8217;t end up being created but it was good practice to make before the actual script was written.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practice Videos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before we started producing our films, we needed to get a bunch of practice filming with narrative techniques. So below there are a couple videos that show my practice leading up to the narrative film.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p5   1 Period Film   AidanJ MiaS LandonQ KarenC One Period Movie\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KF5G4S6im9E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This video was a practice film where we had to make a short little story using the equipment and time we had in class.

I covered all the interior shots in my friend&#8217;s house. And then I filmed my basement shots in the basement of my other friend&#8217;s house. This was a very tiring and testing part of the project, but I had a really great team to guide me along the way so it turned out really well. And I think my crew had fun filming together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p6 Sr Narrative Trailer LandonQ\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KadR4JpCQc0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> The narrative film has given me tremendous growth as an organizer.

This put a lot of creative pressure on me to work things out correctly, but also allowed me to learn about organizing and how to do it efficiently. Where now I feel more confident going into my next filmmaking job knowing that I can handle all the different aspects of pre production.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Narrative Visual Perspective in Film The EPIC Narrative Film is the biggest film project that our entire experience culminates in.
