Bits of everything!!

Havnt been on here for a while... :) neways, loads has been going on, we have had to make tv grapics for the broadcasting students 'live at 5', I was made the producer of my my team which included Mike Ceri and Sean, We came up with an idea to drop blue ink inot water after seeing it lots of examples of work on the internet, we used a macro camara and made a mini set and began filming the ink which in the turned out better than any of us thought,

At first we were told that we were the first team and that we only had two days to complete everything so we were very stressed and we all worked really hard trying to get our heads around after effects (which i still dont really understand!) eventually we were tiold that we wernt the first griup and we were all a little annoyed but relieved.

Yesterday weas when we actually had to do live at 5 and it went ok, i was getting very annoyed at the producer of the broadcasting students because she only came in once and didnt actually seem bothered about anything, all other members of her team were coming in constantly telling us what they needed and by when they needed it.

The broadcast went ok, I was annoyed that they mucked up our title sequence and the fact they brought some of our tables ie.sports and weather far to late so they just looked blank making it reflect badly on us! all in all i enjoyed working ina team but i hated the lack of effort from some of the broadcasters, I dont think i would like to get into this area of work anymore, its difficult stressful and not very rewarding!

Anothor project we are currently doing is an Ident project for a channel in america. My and my partner Holly have choosen to do the film Ident and have come up with avery idea involving popcorn,we are using photo stills, and flash to animate in and i think it will look great once finished.
