Web's Most Searched Script

     For my CCR, one of my pieces of media will be a recreation of the WIRED Autocomplete Interview. This is the script, but I will likely film it soon next week!

-Hello, this is Luiza Mello anddd this is the WIRED Autocomplete Interview.

(smirk)

(premade slides shown)

-I’ve honestly always wanted to do one of these.(giggles)

(slide)

- “Is Luiza Mello a good director?”

(Laughs)

- I mean I definitely like to think that I have done a good Job with my new upcoming film The Walk, but I’m still young, you know? There’s always more to learn and I’m excited about that.

- Okay next…. Anddd.. “How has Luiza Mello included representation from different social groups and issues?”

- Wow so a big question.(Giggles)

- During the planning process I actually spent a lot of time thinking of how I would integrate this in my film. I really believe that the way to truly connect with my audience would be to give more opportunities for people to recognize themselves in different characters. Most times, when I’m watching a new coming of age movie, people only pay attention to the main character and their storyline, but in my film, most of the main characters will have their own plots happening at the same time. I wanted my film to be shown in the perspective of a bisexual teenage girl that struggles with anxiety, but I didn’t want to let that be all her story was about. Similarly from many young girls that have anxiety, Hailey will have her advances and setbacks, but she will still maintain her confidence in herself, and especially, her sexuality. 

- And well, aside from her I’ve included actors from many different cultures and characteristics. Some of the characters are seen struggling financially, with their sexualities, with their background and with their families. I wanted to make sure that no matter who you are or where you’re from, you’d be able to find a character to connect with.

- Wow, sorry, that was a lot.

(Laughs)

- Alrighty andd next.

- Okay so, “Is The Walk going to be in the movies?”

(Deep breath)

- Sadlyyy… no. As much as I wish it could be, my film will only be available online on youtube and on some Film Festivals. My team and I are still working on which, but we’ll likely show our film on the Zoe Awards festival and the IndieFest Film Award. But we’ll also be advertising on platforms like Instagram, Snapchat and Tiktok, so that our target audience can be reached.
