My Final thoughts this Semster.

I had an incredible time this semester and learned so much. The opportunities i am being given are tremendous. I loved working with Shane and Phil because they are awesome people to work for. I hope this only brings me closer to the fantastic live I've dreamed for myself since i was 16. This is going to be a great experience for me and i hope it'll all be worth it. It was a great year and an even better semester of class.

Dan Whalen and Lee Steadman

Dan was a great person to listen too because he taught us the importance of script lingo in the film business. He taught us that  ext. means exterior and int. means interior. He also described to us what the difference in script color means. like if the script is blue that means that there was changes made to it and if its pink then even more were made on top of the blue script. I also didn't know that props are only props if you interact with them to make them add to the scene. If they don't move they might as well be background. Lee Steadman was the other man we met for our lectures and he was a really cool guy. He was the man who made the Room 10 people come work with us because he was a scouting agent. i liked that he was there to help explain that we needed to open ourselves and our area for business more. He also described his job to us and some personal experience he had with the job and working on a Stephen King movie. Lee also told us that it is crucial to come off professionally and to act in a way that other people would love to work with us so that we could get rehired. He was great and i appreciated the time he took to come in and talk to us.

Good Ol' Freda and her Producer Kathy.

The day we met with miss Freda was awesome. She was so nice and fun to talk to. hearing her incredible story about her and the Beatles was awesome. It was really interesting to hear from her perspective why after being the secretary for the famous band she decided to live a more quite life and became a lawyer. It was also very interesting to hear the story of how she got a movie made about her. The process she had to go through was really fun to listen to and her movie is certainly on my watch list for when it comes to Netflix. Kathy was the producer for the Film Good Ol' Freda. She was for the most part the person who told me Fredas story. While Freda was at first very quiet Kathy was very eager to tell us her incredible journey of not only meeting Freda but how they got to make the film as well. She was incredibly kind and told us that Freda is very shy and quiet at first but once she opened up she let Freda do the talking. It was a great experience and I learned a lot.

Filming for the Trailer

In the trailer for Delta Zero I got to play the awesome roll of "dead Guy" i was a dead man in the trailer and i got to wear blood and it was really fun. Other then that i helped with the lighting in the small rooms and got to experience first hand what it is like to be in a potential film. It was incredibly fun and I want to do this more.

My first Movie

My first small film which i made with the class in which I directed is called Grim Outlook.
The film was about a young man that commits suicide and ends up learning that it isn't the answer through death. The film was a great experience to film and was a joy to direct. Even though it was a class project it still was something Im proud of to this day.

The Day Nicholas Cage came to town

The Day I got to see Nicholas Cage was awesome. I went in a small group with other students to go on set for the film room 10. it was there that we watched professional filming in action. I learned that sets have to be very quiet and everyone has a job they need to attend to. Everyone was doing something important and it looked like a well oiled machine of workers all working toward a same goal. This has only made me more willing to go into this business.

My jobs and Duties on Set

      On Thursday April 14th me and many other students worked to help clean up the set so that we can film our movie trailer. My job specifically was to clean one of the sets and make sure that it was swept and there was no more dirt on the set. I believe i made great progress and cleaned up plenty of dirt from the set but my progress for the film came from today April 18th when I helped my classmate Austin with the Production book. I gave helpful hints and let him know what i believe can be changed. So far Austin has done a great job on it and I look forward to working with him more. The Portfolio has been coming along greatly.
