Finally finished all the coursework - averaging out at a B across all 3 subjects.
Study leave starts in a month.
And I got an offer to study at a music college!
It's been a stressful but rewarding few weeks...now to revise for my mock exams that are barely a month before the finals...what could...
I don't even know what my last post in this thread was about.
I'm 1 week into the spring holiday, spent most of it sleeping, skyping friends and playing video games.
I've got an interview for a music college doing "creative media" - basically creating music videos and band merch for the...
Two weeks of freedom begins now!
I have an interview for a music college in three weeks which I'm kinda nervous about but I'm sure I'll be fine...I hope.
I'm so exhausted it's not even funny, I think I might be catching a cold because of it -.-
Everyone skipped their first lesson today to watch the solar eclipse...gotta love how the teachers encouraged it because we rarely get to see eclipses here in England (because it's always clouded over).
Best use of our time ever.
Haven't posted in a while...there's a reason for that;
I do love the feeling of utter chaos just hours before a film deadline.
My classmates and I were literally sprinting around college trying to find equipment and people at a moment’s notice, begging each other for any knowledge on how to...
All the days are blurring into one continuous day...
So I've got my A2 film draft deadline on Tuesday, we spent most of Monday afternoon filming after a session last Friday afternoon. We reviewed all our footage and discovered that all of Monday's footage was too dark to do anything with so now...
So it snowed today, everyone freaked out. (I live in southern England right on the coast so snow is a rarity for us)
It turned into slush within 20 minutes so that was a short-lived experience.
And we drafted our filming schedule today, turns out we have a lot less time than we thought.
Oh well.
Well we got told when our film studies coursework deadline is... 10th March for the draft of our film and then 17th for the final piece.
That's a little over two weeks to film and edit a 6 minute film to "Almost industry standard.".
At least I'm not working on my own this time! I'm working...
So we staged a fake wedding in college...apparently Catholic colleges don't take too kindly to 20 students taking over the chapel to do this...in the end one of my friends led the entire procession around the building looking for an empty classroom. Most of the student body couldn't understand...
So my classmate ran all the way down the college driveway this afternoon to tell me that I don't have a lesson at 9am tomorrow. The funny part was I already knew xD
The powercut from yesterday caused two of my friends to lose their final pieces of coursework. And the first year students...
So I'm officially done with my media coursework - onto planning my A2 film studies coursework...woo...
In other news; the college had several power cuts this afternoon because the construction workers building the new east wing cut through a wire/overloaded a generator which resulted in a lot...
So my lecturer actually appreciated how much effort I put into my stupid a2 media coursework.
Yes I edited it all in less than 12 hours, yes I think it's done. no I don't want to refilm the ending just because it "doesn't really sit right."
In short; I have a week off next week and I'm...
Random day off tomorrow in which I will sleep for most of the day and then probably just play Assassin's Creed.
I ended up sat in the video edit suite for a total of 7 hours between 9am Monday and 2:30pm today getting my stupid A2 media coursework done for the draft deadline on Thursday.
I can...
So...I had a really bad day yesterday (Friday).
Only 2 out of 6 teachers in the media/film department were in. My class was "supervised" by the guy in charge of leasing out the college cameras who is known as a bad-tempered mule for various reasons.
Anyway, I had collected about 45 mins worth...
Just filmed 4 hours of footage today for my media work. My guitarist was ill so I had to literally beg the swiss guy in my film class to step in at the last moment...thank god he did.
So now to edit it all together haphazardly until I film the other half of the footage over the weekend...and...
I'm looking forward to:
Getting around to recording some song covers.
Meeting my long-distance boyfriend in person for the first time in July.
A birthday meal next month with my friends who I haven't seen since last summer.
And most importantly; getting the hell out of my parent's home, they...
Decided not to go to a party last night, I get a phone call just after midnight from my friend and apparently a lot of stuff happened which is going to make monday morning interesting. I feel bad for laughing but let's just say that karma slapped some people.
I have 3 weeks to film and edit a...
Finally got the media essay done...or at least to my standards. My lecturer may not share my opinion but at this point I don't think anyone really cares anymore we all just want to move on to the filming...which brings me to my next problem; how the heck I'm going to plan, film and edit a 5...
Hah thanks! My username was randomly generated god knows how many years ago and I just use it for most forums and stuff like that now.
As for my avatar; well Umbreon is my favourite pkmn so yeah it was a no-brainer.
Arcanine is pretty awesome though!
