Well, heck. It was supposed to be an absolute first cut and give me a total 60 second short film that I could then tease and post-produce. It was meant to be content. It was meant to be filming, it was meant to be productive, it was meant to have outcomes, there was supposed to be film on page, there was supposed to be audio, video, photography, output. What was there instead?
Well there was some filming at the very least, and I have captured I suppose quite a bit of stuff to tape and imported it into an Adobe project that is called Assignment 1, but there is no sense of achievement or feeling closer to the end of a project associated with those poor achievements. In fact I feel further away from my goal than I did when the weekend started.
I was supposed to get a news reel logo happening. I was supposed to design my intro. I was meant to do so many things and the weekend just slipped past me unexpectedly and all I have is a project with half a dozen imports sitting in it. In fact I cant even look at the imports to see if any of it makes sense. I feel sick looking at the imagery of myself. I dont like the way I look on camera which lead me to belive I am heading down the wrong track entirely. I was hoping to do a Kuleshov Effect with some shots of myself but I dont think I understand it completely and my efforts of sitting in front of the camer are a total miss.
Eegads, will I get this project done???
I think I have decided that I need to introduce myself, but can do this without being on camera with a VO. Then I could possibly just cut to my points of interest and talk about them via VO. No?
Will that work? Is it interesting and creative enough? I have so much doubt about it at the moment that the whole project seems blank and even though the deadline has been extended it seems to be approaching at a rate of knots that makes me feel increasingly nervous! Did this happen last year? Is it my own sense of paranoia about being on camera? Have I actually even seen myself on video before? Do i really want to? Shit!!!
