Some old... and some new things about me!

 Hello! My name is Maria Rita, and I have many nicknames but most people just call me Maria. I am a 15 year old who has spent my life living in South Florida. I live with my parents and 2 older brothers. I have a couple pets, my dog named Lucy, turtle name Bowser, and some fish. I am Brazilian on my moms side which is cool! As a Brazilian, I spend a ton of time playing soccer. As a sophomore at Fort Lauderdale High School, I am apart of our girls varsity team! I also play outside of school on a travel club team. Most of my friends are on either of my soccer teams so I get to spend a ton of time with them, which is nice. When I don't have school or soccer activities to attend to, I have many hobbies I enjoy. I like to sing, paint, skateboard, craft, and even bake. One of the more major things I enjoy is theater. Especially musical theater. The acting, the singing, the dancing, but especially all the backstage work that goes into it. What it takes to put on a production really intrigues me. This is why I am so excited to get started on this project! It allows for me to work behind the scenes and put on my own type of production. I am looking forward to this new task. I cannot wait to get started!

It had titles for the name of the film, the producer, the writer, the music, the studio company, the costume designer, the illustrator, and the director etc. The titles were white block letter style and had a heavy graphic overlay, a dark black background with bright primary colors flashing.  Throughout the opening sequence there were images of skulls and people laying on the ground that had an essence of death and violence. There were also images of creepy extreme close-up smiles. It made us feel negatively overstimulated giving us a sense of foreboding. We could feel something dreadfully unexpected will take place throughout the film. Also there was a section of extreme close-ups on different peoples faces specifically focusing on their eyes. This section had quick paced editing.  The films editing, color palette, audio, and lighting reinforce the...

There are also multiple images of unknown machines operating and even clips taken from the news included. These images are in a way foreshadowing the mysterious and supernatural. They let viewers know that the ...
