The parts I most enjoy in filmmaking are directing and cinematography. I hate actually being on camera. I go out of my way to avoid it. Also, I never learned to edit, so that's not really my thing either. The only experience that I have with filmmaking is the required photography and media production class that I took last year.
Out of the film projects that I've done, my favorite has probably been an interdisciplinary project in which a group of friends and I created a film review in the form of a TV show. I was the director.We used a TV studio setup with three cameras to shoot it. I learned a lot about how to multitask and how important it is to remain calm and collected under pressure as I tried to communicate with everyone during our shoot. I also enjoyed a project in which my partner and I created a short film to explain the role of the producer of a film. We created the story of a terrible producer as an example of what a producer shouldn't do. I helped to write the script and filmed most of it. I was also the voice of the narrator, which was a good compromise for me because I never had to be on camera for it.
We could use these blogs to:
- Keep our group members posted on our progress for our change project. We can also use it to keep others informed about any activities or events related to our project.
- Share opinions about projects or class discussions or continue conversations that we've had in class online.
- Share our work and opinions with our peers

Your blog is pretty!
Oh hey Becca! You mentioned me! Yes! ...Granted, it was as "my partner," but it was still me. It occurs to me that I probably should have used the opportunity to teach you editing, since I was kind of at an advantage in that. Also I like teaching. Ah well.
