Week 6 was a really crucial as it was the last time we could talk about our final assessment pitches before presenting them in week 7. Week 6 started like most weeks, Paul would rally the troops with some great videos and theory on the upcoming assignment before setting us out to continue our filming practise. Paul was kind enough to supply us with some scripts and gave us the incentive to come up with some shots that would work with the scripts provided.
On the Tuesday we had some first years attend the class and when i went out with my group to do some filming we got a couple of the first years to tag along. My group worked on some shots down at the basketball courts, where we got the first years to be in front of the camera but also gets some hands on experience behind the camera as well.
In the Thursday class Paul gave us some great tips and pointers on how we should approach out final assessment for the end of semester especially writing for the pitch. He had come up with his own pitch which he “Pitched” to us and then got the class to write down there ideas and tell the person next to them. It was great to hear everyone’s ideas for the final assessment it made you feel really inspired and i think what our class will produce will be really great.
And as the end of week 6 is over and the prospects of the Week 7 pitch on the horizon, i must get to writing. This is Lance signing off.
