Week 10 - HELP!!!!

Hi Guys,

HELP!!!!!!!!

I think this succinctly summarises what I and by extension many of us feel at this point in time in the semester. I really don't know how some of you are managing to do all our projects at the same time. I find myself two days or even the day before realising that there is a deadine and have been pushing back my scheduled work to finish up the due assignment. With this constantly happening in a cycle I always have work upon work to do and the cycle is never ending.

I also agree with Annabelle, it is only when we fall in pitfalls are we able to learn how to climb out and avoid them the when they come up. Additionally, I like a good challenge, no wait, I like overcoming a challenge, not the challenge itself.

This week I have two assignments coming back to back. I have a devastatingly long essay, 2,5oo words to do for Friday and I have planning to collaborate with my group members for producing class for our rehearsal/filming for Friday and Saturday. We have to organise any additional crew we need to get and we need to finalise shot list and storyboard. And then added to that my Capstone short has been put on the back burner for this week so editing will have to wait. Compromise, compromise, compromise. Not a word I often use with my work but I am trying to pull out silver linings wherever I can. And talk about trying to manage it all. Stress!!!! BUT... Thanks to everyone in class, their generosity and constant words of comfort and advice and maybe even knowing that we are all chaotic together is somewhat calming to heart. Thanks guys for being the best bunch of filmmakers ever.

PS If anyone needs help with anything please email or call, will try my best to help out in anyway I can.

And remember Happy Producing.
