This assignment is the SuperCut assignment. Essentialy, the idea was to take an overused dialouge, motif, theme, etc from a movie or TV show and mash them together. I’ve been watching way too much Prettly Little Liars, so that is what I decided to “super cut”. They scream way too much in the episodes. Like, the producers must have a bag of Halls cough drops on them at all times.

One example I watched was the Will Ferell supercut. I thought it was wonderful, really. The ds106er was right – Ferell plays the same character with the same voice and tone over and over again. He must be typecasted for everything now. Anywho, I thought it showed the purpose of the assignment very nicely.

Another one I watched was other exmaple using anime. This got it across extremely well! It was well edited and showed many exmaples of what to look for in anime.

I choose this assignment because I watch this show all the time, plus I’ve read the books. It has an interesting plot line that can be way too dramatic at times. Their screeches shock you, especially Spencer’s because her face always looks terrified. I noticed this before doing the assignment and when I saw this supercut, I thought that it would be perfect with this.

The story behind the whole show is that the girls are getting stalked by some unknown person named “A.” Without ruining it, that’s all I can tell you, but this idea of dramatic screams is in every ABC drama and every thriller movie and every horror movie. This idea stretches way beyond four rich girls getting stalked. I’m not sure when this zoomed in screaming because (I’m going to guess with Alfred Hitchcock) but it works wonders to make people anxious.
