Making of Gameboy

Trailer:



The film Gameboy was the first film I ever made for the art show and i can truly say it was successful. It took hours of work with acting, editing and composing music but all and all we finished and we had a blast making it. When making the script, I wanted to make something relate to people in our school but at the same time does not require much of a budget. i wanted every setting easy accessible and simple. The story is about a guy named Andy who is just letting life pass him by because he can't stop playing his gameboy. He lacks a social life, confidence and everything else in between and he sees that when his gameboy actually breaks.

Making the film was fun but definitely hard work. It was hard finding the right actors to portray the characters and telling them what to do is a whole other problem. Editing too was kind of an issue for our group because we used multiple computers to edit and we often misplaced clips and audio files. As a group we pulled through and we met the deadline so the film was able to be shown in this years art show.

Despite tons of last minute changes and hours of rendering when it came to editing the film, the whole thing was a great experience not just for me but for our whole group. It really taught us to meet deadlines and also to be organize. Now that we have one film under the belt we now know what it takes to get a film done and this will definitely help us for making films in the future.
