Jordan and I went back and finished up our crime/noir-ish film for the festival. Our teacher will be happy. You know, it's shocking how much better a movie can become when the music, oh, doesn't have mistakes, and the lighting actually allows you to see what's going on!

Well, not that shocking. But it's still a wonderful change. Since we only got to run through the music once last time before turning in the final form, needless to say it was a bit sloppy in places, and this one shot was dark beyond all belief. But we re-shot and re-recorded, so it's all nice and shiny and finished now. Very satisfying.

But our comedy. Sigh. It's my baby now. The jokes still make me laugh, which is a good thing after staring at it for several hours on several different occassions. I'm really in love with the characters Mark and Matt play, especially Matt's. His is a complete Eyore-type personality. Did I spell that right? Eyore? Eeyore? I'm not sure. Oh well. Anyway, it's fun to watch him act. He's awfully good, especially for having no training at all. Mark is great too. Very high-strung. :)

Am I boring anyone? All this incessant talk of film class? I'll shut up if you want me too. Or at least talk quieter.

I keep looking at the Latest Blog Entries, and no one's posted anything for a while, so this is for all you folks who check it as often as I do. :)

Spring break is almost over. Noooo! But thankfully the movie we're working on for Film is nearing completion. Well, not really, but we've only got one shot left to shoot (not even a scene, a SHOT), and then we've got to dive into editing. But that's not going to be nearly as tricky as last time. For one thing, we all know how to work Final Cut by now (as opposed to just me knowing how to work it, so I had to do it all), and for another we haven't got any voice overs to do, which is just pure relief. Last time, out of our three-character movie two of them spoke entirely through voice overs. And we hadn't decided who would do one of the voices. And we left all that until the final weekend to do. Go us. But this time, our movie is constructed far better, we've finished shooting quite early, and we'll probably get a couple more weeks to edit. Maybe even three. Plenty of time!

So, that's it for now. Hope that satisfies anyone who keeps hoping for a new blog posting. :) Maybe I'm the only one...

He's dating her now, and I think I'm fine with it. I mean, I should be after six months. Besides, matt is looking awfully cute now. Isn't that funny? I'm trying to force myself to have a crush on him, partially because he's a sweet guy, and partially to keep my mind off the the new couple. The group has this cyclical thing it does, where everyone hooks up over a six month period, breaks up for six months, and starts over. Last year I started it, this year barbara did. We're so weird. :)

I'm turning into a musical theater geek. It's wonderful! All the stories and songs are floating around in my head, and I recently discovered that there are pirated videos all over youtube of musicals. So, needless to say, my homework has taken a back seat to Les Mis, Tic Tic Boom, Assassins, and The Last Five Years. My dad keeps rolling his eyes when he hears me humming. He nows what I'm turning into. :) Thanks goes out to all my friends who introduced me to this stuff. And I'd like to thank the academy...

To whoever nominated my writing, thanks so much, I'm honored. I did a complete double-take when I logged in. :)

So, M gave me a mix from different musicals for christmas, and I've been listening to stuff from Wicked, the Last Five Years, Assassins, and others, and it's just wonderful. :) I need to see more musicals.

So, I haven't been on in a while. And I haven't entered a contest in forever. I don't want to say that I'm losing interest in this place, because I adore the community and the people, but life is so BIG right now; there are always a thousand choices of what to do at any given moment, and this choice never turns up in my mind. Maybe with summer coming I'll get on more. I'll try.

So I go into history today, and my writer friend is there with this silly grin on his face and an aboslutely enormous binder in his hands. Without me even asking to see it, he thrusts the binder at me, and I discover that it is FILLED with all the fiction he's written for the last two years. Four hundred pages or something. And the reason he printed it all out (and used up an ENTIRE ink cartridge I might add)? To get onto the school newspaper. They asked to see some writing you've done. I think he's going for the whole "shock and awe" idea. Silly.

Sick. Ugh. Bleh. Chills. Fever. Headache. Tired. Dizzy. Etcetera.

Sounds worse than it actually is, but being sick makes me melodramatic.

^_^

But now as I look back on my other entries, I've discovered I'm never in a good mood when I write in this. I'm usually happy, I swear!

-_-

I cannot believe how clueless some people can be.

In at least two of my classes people are forever asking me how to do something, or worse, what we are doing. Now, I *should* take this as a compliment, but I just find it annoying. I mean, how hard is it to pay attention once in a while? Or to actually read the board, where the teacher wrote explicit instructions, before asking me for help?

Bah. I'm cranky.

Hmm...I'm debating what to put here, any ideas? Anyone?

No one. ^_^
