Week of June 12

            This week we were busy with the film festival.  There was a lot of work that went into the films we premiered and it the audience reactions were great.  There were a couple films that I thought were a bit cheesy, but for the most part everyone did great.  I didn’t really like how a majority of the films were depressing, after a while it started getting a bit pretentious.  Either way, they were all done very well whether they were comedies, horror, or PSA’s.  I can’t wait for next weeks afterschool film festival and I expect a great turnout.

Week of June 12th

            This week, we had our film festival and I heard that our film made it in.  They apparently screened it during 4^th period, which was the only one I didn’t see, but I also heard that it was well received and people liked it.  Now we just need to finish up our last movie and have Brandon turn in the one he was working on.  After that, we’ll be all caught up with our films and we won’t have to worry about anything anymore.  Hopefully we can film the last few shots we need and edit them in time before the final deadline next week.

June 6

            This week was a huge breakthrough: we actually finished our first movie (a party is in order.)  It took us several weeks, but after all that time I can honestly say that we’ve made something that we can be proud of.  This film looks great and tells a decent story.  It is original and shows both our skills as actors, but as writers and directors as well.  We are still currently working on our comedy in class and we hope to finish that soon enough.  So far we have a lot of film so we really only need a few more shots until we’re done.  I think it’s going to be great, not film festival great, but great as a nice little inside joke between us and everyone else in film.
