Summary

Over the past few weeks we have been really busy. Thursday marked the deadline for the submission of our first year film scripts. I really enjoyed the process of writing a script and found that discussing my work with the rest of the class within Richards lessons proved to be really helpful. I think out of all our lessons I defiantly enjoy writing the most. I have started writing alot more outside of class, mostly short stories, but i am always thinking about ideas for short films. I am hoping that getting practice writing outside of class will have a positive effect on the quality of my work.

Another lesson that I am really enjoying is Adams content origination. At the moment we are working on two separate projects. The first is an individual project and the other is a task i am working on with Amelie. We were asked to come up with an idea for a mobile or web based program. I feel that we are working well as a team and our idea is progressing nicely. I think that the idea we have created would appeal to alot of people and I myself would want to watch the program if it was created.

After working on Candid Cabaret a couple of weeks ago I am looking forward to working on more projects. It was a really good experience filming the musical theatre performance and I am even though I haven't had the chance to work on any of the grad films I am looking forward to working on our end of year film in a couple of weeks time.

We have recently had our first couple of production lessons with Abigail. Before the classes I didn't think that I would really be interested in production. However I found out that the producer does many different roles, not just organising the finance. Taking this into account I think that there are some aspects of production that I might be interested in. When me, Chris and Kelsey were put in a group together I felt that we worked well as a team and got all of the tasks completed fairly quickly. I think these classes were exactly what we needed considering that we will be producing our own film in a couple of weeks. I also feel that the structure of these classes was very effective, I liked the fact that all our production lessons were grouped together in a period of three days. I think that it made the learning more intense and we were able to discover a lot about production in a short space of time.
