Napoleon Dynamite Write Up


Napoleon Dynamite Write Up.


Our task was to re create a clip of the film Napoleon Dynamite. We started of by watching the clip through a few times.

 We were then put into groups and we were mixed with people that we haven't really made contact with to give us an opportunity to work with someone different and get to know them.

Once in our groups we got given a camera and a tripod and were sent of to film our own version of the clip. 

Once we arrived at our first location we decided the roles. The main role Napoleon was taken on by Charlie, the role of Pedro was taken on by myself, Jade took on the role of the teacher and the filming was left in the hands of Shelby.

Our group started of by filming the first scene in the reception where the reception lady kindly let us use the telephone as it is used in the actual film. We asked to use the props because we wanted ours to be the same as the film. 

Once we had finished filming the first scene in the reception we then went on to film the scene of the teacher having a discussion with the new student. This scene, we filmed in the corridor in front of the lockers. 

We carried on filming in the same location for the next couple of shots where Napoleon helps the new student to his locker and where they discuss transport on how they get to college. Pedro explained to Napoleon that he rides his bike to school and straight away Napoleon took interest.

The next scene was the new student telling and showing Napoleon what bike he has and what cool features it has. Napoleon was very impressed with his bike.

The Final scene was a scene where Pedro tried a "Sweet Jump" where I used Olivia's bike as a prop to make the scene look the same as the scene in the film.

Mobas are a branding agency and they are based in Cambridge. They are ranked as the UK's top agencies.





Yesterday at college, we had something called D-Day (Digital Day) where in groups we had to think of a brand and launch it on social media sites, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram ect. 

Our group thought of the Brand name RAGS. we came up with the idea of having a clothes shop where people could bring in their old clothes and they would be renewed or recycled to make new clothes. The shop we had created would be run by students as they know about fashion, what trend is in and what people like to wear. 

We decided also to make our shop a charity shop where we would donate 15% of our sales to a specific  charity.

We thought of a few good selling points for our shop, the main ones being that the clothes would be cheap but still good material and that we recycle the clothes instead of binning them. Another selling point was that the store was that there would only be 1 of everything which makes it quite unique.
