Pitch

  Be grateful Me and my group came up with three pitches for short film concepts.

Another thing I like about my group is that we all fit together and have our own qualities that contribute to making good projects. For example, I am a good cameraman and I am good at incorporating camera angles correctly. Zanes outgoingness and energy makes him a good actor for films. Zanes family also has extensive acting experience which can help zane be a better actor too. Luke passion of movies can be applied to our
