CCR IDEAS

So when my teacher gave us a lesson on CCR's I already had an idea i THOUGHT was really creative. She had mentioned that her previous students had used trending interview styles and used those to do their CCR's, so I thought about what was currently trending. I realized that I have been seeing a lot of 'get ready with me' videos, where someone is just doing a basic thing (like makeup) and talking about other things meanwhile. I knew I could easily edit in some graphics and go in my bathroom, which would be a wonderful filming area for me. 

My original idea was me doing a 'do my makeup with me for my interview' where I would answer some questions. The second media product would be the actual interview, where I would answer the other questions. However, when I asked my teacher about the idea, she said that MANY other students had done this, and done it HORRIBLY. Honestly, I wasn't surprised that lots of other people had done it, but I didn't expect them all to be done bad! She said that I would probably be a talking head, and that the focus would be my actions in the video, not my responses to the questions. Honestly, I see the problems with it now

So for my second idea, I was thinking of doing a 'suggestion box' approach, where there would be paper in a box, I shake it, and it would be a hate comment or a simple question. To choose my specific question to answer, I was thinking of sticking my hand in the box off-camera, and picking up the piece of paper which is not in the box, making it look like I reached in the box to pick it out. With this, I can have all sorts of freedom with graphics or other things I could do, such as pointing to a part of the screen, where a graphic would pop up.

My other idea is still in the making, maybe I could make a paparazzi interview where I walk around while answering questions. This one's still a ROUGH draft so it'll probably change. 

Anyways, tomorrow will (hopefully) be our last filming day, where we can finish all the scenes!
