Portfolio project


After taking many days of preparations to decide on what I wanted to do for my portfolio project, I decided to go with a comedic film opening. I knew that for the choices given I wanted to do something surrounding film. The idea for the choice of comedy came to me surprisingly late one night as I was preparing for sleep. I was watching an old youtuber I used to enjoy named Tomska, a British youtube celebrity, writer, producer, director, actor, and filmmaker. His use of puns, comedic timing/delivery of jokes, and creation of his own music for his videos always made them feel more professional, even in his early days. The editing and the style of comedy in which he tries to portray really do shine in the videos listed below and will serve as guidelines for me throughout this project.

I’m stuck now on what idea my film opening should be about. I have 2 general bases for what the video could be, one being a comedic bomb defusal, and the other a series of events showing dismay sometime in the future and how certain actions have caused those catastrophic scenarios. I'll be writing soon about my choice in the next post.
