So Little Time

So many of us have complained that we can only do so much in any given time. And it is true. There are too many assignments and too many subjects in any given time. I truly wish that we had an extra in the beginning of the holidays to do our short film but alas...

Now the problem is, I have confirmed my script and had started shooting. Now my actress has decided she is tired of being bruised and battered and wants a change in script. Great! What happened to all the hours I spent shooting before. Maybe I can still incorporate it. So I have finally redone the script and it meets her approval. Sigh, I hate the star system! Come to think of it, I prefer this script. I don't have to worry about matching the lighting. So we both benefit. My lead actor have already confirmed so now its just to get everybody same day and time and shoot. But I love my visuals from before too much too give them up. I will incorporate them one way or another. Since time is limited I want to shoot in one or two days maximum. So I'm going to pull a Hitchcock. I'm going to "cut in camera". That way I don't have much editing to do. Thanks Dr. Mier for introducing him to me. I usually love to have lots of shots so that I can select, but then I end up with soo many I don't know which to choose. Well, that's it for Capstone.

Now, as for my 20 second ad for this course. Guess what, I'm shooting it today, yeah! I have all the equipment and everything so by midnight tonight, I will have finished shooting. It feels soo good to have at least one script in the pan, you can't imagine.

That's it for now. Now to shoot that ad. Guys, I hope (against the odds, I kno, I'm here) that everyone is doing fine with their workload.

Wishing you all the best,

Resh.
