Juno film opening and Evaluation

This task was to recreate the film opening from the commonly know film called Juno, I will quickly summaries the plot of the film. A tale told over four seasons, starting in autumn when Juno, a 16-year-old high-school junior in Minnesota, discovers she's pregnant after one event in a chair with her best friend, Bleeker. In the waiting room of an abortion clinic, the quirky and whip-sharp Juno decides to give birth and to place the child with an adoptive couple. She finds one in the Penny Saver personals, contacts them, tells her dad and step-mother, and carries on with school. The chosen parents, upscale yuppies (one of whom is cool and laid back, the other meticulous and uptight), meet Juno, sign papers, and the year unfolds. Will Juno's plan work, can she improvise, and what about Bleeker? The film is one of my favorite films, and portrays the journey of a young girl taking on the big responsibility of being pregnant. 



In evaluation of our opening I believe the filming was successful considering it was our first attempt, we were able to replicate the different shots of the real Juno film opening. Our storyboard was very accurate and enabled us to have a set outline of positions and angles that we would need to illustrate. This was exceedingly helpful when deciding what props and overall setting was needed for our filming as accurate as we possibly could with the resources available. Our main strengths was working as a team to conclude on how we would present our work, unfortunately our weakness could possibly be our amateur editing abilities; which left certain scenes slightly out of sink. we were able to muster up every bit of footage we needed and comprised it into one short video. In retrospect to this i would potentially take my time with the filming to become more of a perfectionist and I will definitely include some time consistently using Adobe Premiere to boost my skills with this particular software.
