Hello, I am Ryan Kelleher and I am a Film student at Freestyle Academy. Through the programs at Freestyle I have had the opportunity to explore my passions for filmmaking, acting, and editing.When I am not doing work for school I enjoy spending my time playing with my dog, playing dodgeball with my friends, playing various video games, and watching TV shows like \u201cBrooklyn Nine Nine.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For My Senior Showcase I am proud to present my Senior Narrative and the different video productions that I have acted in. These represent what I believe are the greatest of my moments at Freestyle. My role in the project was shooting all of the camera moving sequences, editing certain scenes, and the effects in the later half of the short film. Through running camera I learned how to keep a steady hand while making sure the film was in focus and how to map out my path to not crash into anything while I was backing up. While editing I learned the basics of how to pace a scene, and I learned how to mash effects to create something unique. For the productions that I acted in I wanted to showcase my ability to put myself in another person\u2019s shoes. One thing that I really wanted to try out but didn\u2019t have the opportunity to do was experiment with accents because they fascinate me and whenever I hear one, I try to replicate it.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would love to hear your feedback. Did the effects and mashing of different clips help put you in the mind of the character? Were the cuts and effects matching the scene? Was the character I was portraying convincing? Could you feel the tension between the characters?
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next Year I am planning on studying at Humboldt State University. I chose to be an Undeclared major because I don\u2019t believe that I have explored enough of the different majors and enough of myself to know what I want to study yet. I am excited to experience the beautiful landscape of Humboldt and test the different areas of study the university offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first project that I wanted to showcase is my Senior Narrative. For this project we were given four months to create an original story, shot it, and edit it. I was working with another first year film student, which meant that our project would be a film with no dialog. We decided to do a story about a janitor who goes crazy from the pills he is taking. My main role in the project was to do most of the special effects, and my partners main role was doing the sound, the rest we both worked on together. Something specific that I would like feedback on is the last minute (roughly 4:50-5-50) of the film where the effects really ramp up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
