CCR Ideas

 Hey blog!!!

So, I now have all of the info for my CCRs! I will use my blog posts as a script for the audio portion of these videos, leaving the visuals as the final part to figure out. I've seen many examples and am sure I want to at least try to make it fun to film and watch, not just a presentation and a voiceover. So, here are my 3 favorite ideas that I came up with.

News Interview

So, I'll link the inspo vid under this paragraph, but for the past like 7 years I've seen this one street interview on BBC so many times it's concerning. Basically, an English reporter was going around the city streets asking for people's opinions on a specific soccer match in the 90s only to randomly come across one of the goal keepers of that game. It's a very heartwarming interview and I thought it would be cute to recreate it in my own style and to fit the CCR questions. So, I would have one of my friends (probably Arantza) walk around my neighborhood and coincidentally come to me asking about the film "When the White Seeds Fall." I will break it to her that I am actually one of the directors and respond to her questions (the CCRs) with in depth answers. 

News Anchor

If you haven't noticed already, I'm a very news person (I want to pursue a journalism career). So another idea is acting as if I were a news anchor reporting on my film and maybe referencing an interview that the channel conducted on my actual self. And my news reporter character will basically just report my responses as if it were a current event. And I didn't mention this in the last idea, but I would incorporate different types of visuals (pictures, graphics, videos, etc.) and clips of my film opening to make the CCR more entertaining than just seeing and hearing myself talk. I would also probably have to use a green screen for this idea, but that alright. 

Oscars

And my final CCR idea: I got nominated for an Oscar, wow, now it's time for me to walk on the red carpet. Before the Oscars start, there's always a red carpet and many interviewers asking the people attending questions. I think it would be pretty cool to pretend that "When the White Seeds Fall" was nominated for best film or I got nominated for best director and I dressed up nicely and simply went to the Oscars. I get interviewed by, again, probably Arantza, with the CCR questions and that's my video. I would also probably have to use a green screen for this one (by the way, when I say green screen I mean just a blank wall that I can edit the background on), but I'm not too worried about that. I would do the same as my other ideas and add visuals to it, making it more entertaining, and that's that. Here's an example of an actual red carpet interview.
