Week six of capstone

I have about two weeks until I get to show my film to my professors. I did have a little setback with one my scenes got erased on my camera, so I'll have to do it again. It's not too big of a problem to deal with it. I have only a couple more scenes to get done and I should be done filming. Everything I have done has been already edited, so all I have to do is plug the rest of it in. Like I promised last time I would have a little clip from the film. It is the opening of the film, its a temporary one and I might change it.

Now my original idea was to have a quick sunset then stop and rewind to the top. I would repeat this a couple of times until the talent found something he liked. I found that when I sped the footage to the duration I intended for, it would look very jumpy and not smooth. I'll still look into it and see what I can figure out. I have figured out what the music will be like for different parts of the film and I'll start to record it this week.

I found it very amusing that as I'm looking at my footage, I want to redo it. I feel that I could of done it in a different way or said a line better. Though I might be a little hard on myself, it might be a good attribute that I have. What I already plan to do is after I finish the film, I'm going to watch it a couple of times and critique it and figure out what I want different. The positive and negative things in the film. I'll look at the transition of shots and decide whether or not it makes sense. I've noticed a few things I want to change already, so I have an idea of what I can do. I feel you have to be very hard on yourself if you want the best to come out of you. That is how I see it and will progress with my film.

It's been a busy week and I still have a few things to do yet. I'm making good progress but no stopping now though...............
