editing shizz

Yeh so Ive finally done my mashup, i choose to do edward scissor hands and the terminator to make a cheesy sci-fi horror movie. and its alright, i would of liked extra time to of really worked hard at it, and tweek a few things like editing the sound. I tried to export it but it would only let me use soundbooth not audition so i gave up.

I also managed to complete our editing task of changing the sky on a moving image, I was so worried about this project as I have never done any of it before, I was so stressed about it I burst into tears on the bus the day we got set it... hmmm. Just thought it was highly unfair that considoring the amount of work we've already got on, why should we be set a project that we have absolutely no idea of how to even begin? luckily Pete Felstead was on hand and he found us a wicked tutorial on sky replacement, I actually whizzed through it which was nice and I guess its once less thing on my mind, Ill post it on here when i can be bothered.

The talking dog project is going ok, Alex Ceri and I have taken on a character each, Ive got the fat woman, I was researching this cos if you type in 'Fat women' on google you dont get much so i went one step further and typed in Feeders... you know.. those weird men that feed women until they get obese and cant move and photograph them.... GAG. note to self. stop looking at rancid websites. even if its for research!

bbc project research,

Photobucket


dont you just love a crowded train? lol..

New Stuff. Lots of sniping.

Soooo. we've been given a new load of work to do, a lot of it readin in prep for our dissertation next year, and a project for the bbc which seems quite fun.

The reading and writing task sucks, to be honest, I dont mind doing it i just dont like how we've been given lots of stuff all at the same time, and i think it would of been more beneficial if we had started this in january and been given one reading/writing task every two weeks or so, :) anyways ive done the first one and I found the text we had to read actually quite interesting. especially. From Mouse to Mermaid. So much so ive asked my dad to buy me a copy so I can do one of the thousand word tasks on 2 more of the essays in it. I love arguments, I dont mean with friends and stuff I just love a good discussion especially when it envolves disney and how sexist/rasict/nasty they actually can be.

The bbc task seems quite fun, we've been given some scripts for a pilot show and we had to choose groups, my group is Ceri Ralph and Alex (i think) Im happy to be working with Ceri again as i feel we get on well and respect each others ideas. This task is going to be fun but with the time we have its going to be tough thats bbc quality! either way it will be a learning experience.

SNIPEFEST 827. yeh no jokes. the studio has turned into a war zone, everyone sniping at each other over deadlines and shizz. to be honest im letting it all blow over my head, yeh we've got lots on, but we all have to deal with it, we wouldnt of been set all this stuff to do if it was impossible. which it isnt. Ive made a mini schedule which i hope to stick to as my time keeping is and im admitting it... awful. I left the first reading task until 5 days before it was due in... maan. i need to change my habits, but i figure ive always been ok before so why ont i be ok this year? :)

over and out
