Title: The Missing Piece

Grade: Senior

What is the premise of your film? 

“Our film is to show the school what it means to have a big piece missing from the school forever. In our movie, two high schoolers go on an adventure to go find the piece missing from their own school.”

Without spoiling, what should the audience expect to see? 

“The audience should expect some pretty crazy and awesome adventures in this movie.”

How did your group come up with the idea for your film? 

“Our group came up with this idea by taking inspiration from a couple of cool action and adventure movies that we all love and basing [our film] off of those.”

What has the planning and filming process looked like? 

“Planning this film was very difficult because we had some stuff outside to film, and it was very challenging with the weather that we’ve been having recently.”

What’s been your favorite part about creating The Missing Piece? 

“My favorite part is when [we were filming] and Matthew was almost too scared to go off the rope swing that Nick has in his backyard for one of the scenes in the movie.”

How did you choose the actors/actresses? 

“[All of the group members] just agreed on which parts fit which people best, and that is what we went with. It wasn’t anything super interesting.”

What’s one word to describe your film? 

“One word that describes our film is meaningful.”
