Practitioners Essay

Over the weekend I have been working on my Practitioner's essay, I sent a draft in and got some feedback and have been working on it ever since, I plan to have another draft done by tomorrow for tutor to see. I then plan to finish it by wednesday so I can concentrate on the presentation with my group the following tuesday and see if any little bits need to be done to the footage of Feel. Also so that I do not have to stress about this essay over christmas, as I will be working and be doing work experience with The-Mill for a week.

I went to the library and took out two books, one which was recommended by Jools in a lecture which I will be looking at over this week, I also took out this book below too which is about directors for my Practitioners essay, as there is quite a bit of information on commercial directors which I thought could help me.

So today I receieved feedback from Deborah and I will be working harder on this for another draft for next tuesday.

The Mill: Work Experience

Jonathan Hearn kindly emailed me back about all my questions relating to the Mill when he did work experience and has given me loads of tips, which makes me feel a lot more confident for January and when I meet them on 13th Decemeber.

Feel

Today all are group meet up and started to discuss the edit, sound and I was starting to look at various competitions to enter our short film into, I have looked at the Bridport Prize, The London Independant Film Festival Screenplay Competition, The National Film Challenge and the Bang Short Film Festival however with this one I wont be able to put the film in till April but thats fine as I will remember!

Jools mentioned to me about a student called Jon Hearn who graduated last year and who did work experience at the Mill. I had a look at his blog which I found really interesting, I have emailed him asking him questions about what the mill ask him to do, to see if I can get a insight before I go to meet them.

Feel

We filmed on Tuesday 16th and everything went quite well, we started off late but managed to get all the shots we needed right up to 4.:55pm so just enough time! We have been having problems editing and getting our sound off the tape but hopefully by end of this week we should be on our way with finishing editing if not completed!

I have written 900 words so only 400 to go, I am planning to be able to show Deborah a draft by tuesday to then enable me continue to make it better.

Work Experience

I have managed to get some work experience with one of the top 4 companies I want to work for in January called The Mill in London and I am really excited to start, I am meeting them on 13th December so bit nervous!

I have also managed to get some work experience with a company called ZenithOptimedia which I will be doing in the summer in London also. I am extremely excited that these two companies have given me this opportunity and I will use it to my advantage!
