Week6: Tutorial task

STEP 1: (Beginning of our movie making process)

My group and I are on a mission to create a movie depicting the harms of online dating. Our first thought was to expose the use of photo shop adapted profile pictures. This includes people who are attempting to enhance their photos to increase their chances of finding love online. However, once realising the difficulty of demonstrating this, due to our inability to use photoshop software, we changed our idea. Next we thought of making a parody film of an online 'love' connection between 2 people, who in fact end up meeting, and to their suprise, are nothing like they expected of one another. We were to make this movie through the use of our own mobile phone cameras. But, in an attempt to avoid using our own video footage, and having to find people that are willing to act, we decided to explore YouTube, and find anything interesting and humorous in relation to cyber dating.
Finding inspiration through YouTube proved to be a success. We found a film titled ‘eHarmony video bio’ of a crazy cat loving lady. From there our concept of online dating prevention came about. 'Prevent yourself from becoming this crazy cat lady!'

With these ideas in mind, our group began exploring YouTube for further inspiration...
