finishing the second movie

yesterdays presentation was a relief! after so much work we had with getting everything done, it was nice to see people reacting to our work. it was nice to hear them laugh!
all in all it was a great experience. bob, kata and me worked well as ateam even though we are all very different. we had alot of support from bobs flatmates. nearly all of them were involeved in the work...and he has 6 flatmates!
of course bob was he main actor when it came to editing the movie but he was very attentive and explained evrything and every important step carefully to kata and me. that was important because we did not use the nero editing programm we have used with anna for our first movie, but more complex one that bob has on his computer.
yesterday i felt éike if somebody just soke up all my energy. but now that i know its over i am happy because i really like the result of our work....

we were shooting our movie for the last few days... the work went very good and we had much fun, even though everything took more time than planned! I cought a really bad cold and i feel exhausted
i hope that our movie as a whole will look good and resemble the hell of a lot of work we had with it!

the first day of shooting was great fun and good, though slow work. i think that we are good as a team. bob is teaching me and kata new things which is very interesting. for exapmle that we actually check the whithe balance before each new shot was a new thing for me.....and actually how to do it as well...
and the fact that we started planning our time way ahead makes working now very easy!

this thursday i had a meeting with bob about our storyboard. we were really productive and worked a lot on how we imagine the camera stettings and so on. thi smetting was very helpful for me because now i fell that i have the wohle movie in pictures inside my head! that makes working a lot easier!
we will start shooting on tuesday. we allocated three days for shooing, but i hope we will be done faster as we have so much other work to do!

preparing the storyboard

all i can say at this moment is that it will be a hell of a lot of work till we actually get to shoot our movie. but i am confident that we will do our best, bob is very pushy and keeps us working....i was just a bit scared when he said we will at least need 7 h of raw material .....omg. 
but i like being with kata and bob, on sunday we meet to make the final schedule and then the work can begin!!!!

preparing the 2# movie

for the second project i am together with bob and kata. i think we will be a good team and we eveb started working on the project right after class...
what makes me a bit nervous is the fact that there is very little time left for this film and we have so many other assignments to do...personally i think it would be better i the groups would be bigger, as we could share the work better. but now we have to deal with the assignament, i think it is going to be very hard....

shooting and editing our first movie

shooting the movie was far more work than i thought it would be.... it turned out that shooting on a busy place like the nugyti trainstation was very hard. people coming and going, difficulties with positioning the camera... what was also frustrating was the fact that most of the scenes had to be shooted multiple times, which was very tiering. the material that we shooted felt like being enough for a 10 minutes movie, but after editing it turned out just to be enough for 4 minutes.

editing was again not very as easy as we tought it would be... it is dissapointing that eventough we tried our best, the pictures are jumping due to the programm. the fact that the programm was shutting down several times during working with it was also very distracting....
all in ll i like our movie. anna and me were both unexperienced in this field, but we did our best i think. 
with the grade that we got i am ok with, even tough you said in the critique that you saw a movie without music...but we had music!!!! would that make the grade maybe better?
