These Winter Months

Feels like FOREVER since I wrote my last post. I tell ya, a busy schedule can make you well... busy. I just realized it has been since November!! Wow! How time really does fly by.

Well, since then, I had my portfolio review which went extremely well, and even completed my final film of the semester. I had to adapt a scene from a published work (I did a scene from the film "Hard Candy"). It was an experience I will never forget. Not only was it the largest project I ever tackled as a director, but also as an editor. 72 hours of post-production time (majority of it editing). If I wasn't working, in class, or walking to and from someplace, I was editing. In the end though, it was all worth it. The finished product I am content with and I even learned how to color correct!! That was one of the editing techniques I wanted to learn last semester, so I'm glad I could accomplish that.

Now, this semester is even more busy than the last. If I'm not at work, I'm in class, and if I am not in class, I am working on some film project or writing a script. I love it though. There isn't anything better than getting more experience!

Currently, I am working on our final film for Intermediate Filmmaking. There's a group of four of us and we are shooting on 16mm black and white negative film using the Arriflex BL camera. We begin shooting in 2 weeks, and it's very very exciting!!!
