26th January

I got into school and i was able to edit my video enough to present to Oscar a local film maker who would look over my project and tell me where i could improve. i was already a bit nervous in showing him as the footage was not as good as i had hoped and some bits didn't make very much sense and i hadn't been able to edit any of the sound and add music so i guess you could say it was only half done but still i was able to show him the music i was thinking of using and some of the changes before he watched it.
after he had watched it he really made some strong comments about my project. like how i hadn't portrayed the genre of the film very well and that the acting wasn't very good. he gave me a lot to think about and how i could go about improving things. he suggested that i change the genre as i was going for a comedy action type movie he also told he how to compose a "shot list" which would help me a lot in working out in what i need to film and what i have done
he also commented about how difficult it can be making these projects as you play the role of the director camera man and sometimes even actor and putting that much effort into producing all this footage it can make u blind as to what you do and don't need footage wise so i should be ruthless in my editing and cutting of clips
