week 4: music & video production

Video Production
Our storyboard for our first "official" movie is due next monday.... however my co-producer (Barbi Szabó) has some schedule conflicts shooting the movie next week, so we decided to shoot the movie on this Friday. We will finish the script until Thursday... It may seems that this will be rushed together, but the entire idea is in my brain about the movie. Technical difficulties are at the minimum. I'm using video editing sofwares since 2003,so at least we don't have to begin from Adam and Eve.
Looking foward to the prouction of this movie. I think the idea is unique but still easy enough to do the job.

week 3: music & video production

Video Production:
This weeks video production class was just about to drop us into the deep water of filmmaking hints, unofficial "Hollywood" slang and of course we got a serious description about using the camera lens! Basically this knowledge that we learn here, is indispensable to know if we want to be some successfull art managers. Not to mention those students whose future idea is about to get a job in the filming idustry.
Watching the videos of the students who took the class last year, was a very good mirror to us. Our first video is due in a couple weeks and it is neccesary to get a feeling about the quality that we have to reach.

week 2: music & video production

Video Production:
Today we shot a movie with a pre-written storyboard! The title was "Wating for love" and we had around 15 shots. Due to my previously gained experiments in "movie making" it was quite a fun work to do, however we did have some problems that we had to solve very quicly! We had only 90 mintues to shot the movie and some rules were made for the shooting: we had to edit the movie while we were shooting it, we were not able to delete the scenes from the camcorders hard drive, so if we made a mistake that was part of the movie!
Overall, it was a good way to prepare for our first assignement wich will be a 4 minute silent movie!

Music:
3 hours of music class on a Firday morning can be very disappointing, unless you have a teacher who can make this interesting. Basically the main ideai if this class (as I see) to get a basic knowledge as an art manager about the history of modern and classical music. Whithout this skill, an art manger cannot be reliable in the field!
