Media 6 TV Seminar: Week 5

WHAT A WEEK

This week marked a long-awaited return to actual media production, as Jenny, Georgia, host – David and I set out to create the Promo video content for Week 6s TV Seminar.

We had booked the Cyclorama for Wednesday morning and head in nice and early, shooting our way through the morning and laughing at David’s brilliant ridiculousness in front of the Green-Screen.

All first timers using Green-Screen, we initially struggled to evenly light the set, but eventually worked it out and made great progress throughout the morning.

Our first edit was directly after and we spent a bunch of time over Wednesday, Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday in the suites trying to pump out the videos.

We consulted YouTube tutorials when we got stuck and ended up taking some footage home to continue editing over the weekend, however, managed to produce 5 short, 15-sec videos for Instagram and Facebook promotion, as well as almost having finished the full video, which will be used for David’s intro at the seminar on the 28th.

Now we have a few days left to knock off the full version and help out in any other possible way for the seminar.

Cheers to beers on Friday night at 6:30pm.

Breaking Bad.

One of the most popular TV shows to air in recent history – I’m so astounded with where this story has gone. Will Walter White ever stop, or is he truly lost?

The last episodes are out over the next two weeks and I can’t help but feel that it’ll be a truly sad day because I can’t help but feel that I’ll never again witness a TV unfold so well or have such an amazing cast again.

For those who haven’t yet seen Breaking Bad – seriously, get it together.

Vince Gilligan, we salute you.
