Academic Crunch Time

This is just going to be a quick update post concerning the Capstone project. As noted by the post title, it is getting into the second half of the semester, therefore, students everywhere are struggling to get assignments turned in on time.

Manageability in Preproduction

With midterms having come and gone (including a bottle of Pinot Grigio) there is a lot less weight on my shoulders concerning my classes going into next week. There hasn’t been much progress this week, with midterms going on and other classes needing attention, but I did make progress!

Project Update: Scaling Back

As the semester draws on and midterm week starts creeping up on the calendar, I have realized that my initial plan for capstone isn’t going to be achievable if attempting to complete it this semester. I really don’t have the support that I need if trying to complete my capstone in the state that it currently is. That is why my capstone is being scaled back to a manageable size, therefore I am going to be working solely on preproduction.

Slow Progress Being Made on Capstone

At this point in the process of making my short film, I would have liked to be a lot further along than where I currently am. I’m going to be giving an update on everything that I had mentioned in my last blog post, along with where I am in the process of everything – since I should have (theoretically) had everything done by the time that I am posting this.

New Semester, New Updates on Short Film Project

With August gone and September now upon us, it is extremely nerve-wracking for students who are going back to school and getting back into the rhythm of attending classes. I am one of those students, currently in my final semester of college. Yay!

With that comes the dreaded end of college experience: Capstone.

Does Advertising the Brand Hurt Sales?

Advertising is a fundamental importance for a brand to stay relevant in today’s digital age. When technology is advancing then advertising campaigns must follow accordingly, to maintain relevancy with the current technology.

Finishing Narrative Research and Looking into Production (Film Production Blog)

Good news! I have (luckily) enough coffee to read through both research documents for this week. The first one that will be looked at will finish up the small glimpse into narrative, looking at the narrative as a whole instead of just the main character like with the Hero’s Journey. As the section on narrative is being finished up, I’m going to be changing gears and focusing on the technical aspects of production: starting with the psychological aspects of color.

Music Video: Pre-Production Blog

Not only am I having to worry about preparing for Capstone (which is stressfull enough as it is), but I also have to worry about preparing to start production for a music video this semester! (This is going to be one bumpy ride!)

Finishing Chronic Disease and Looking at the Hero’s Journey (Film Production Blog)

Looking into Disease (Film Production Blog)

With my production using chronic illness as its primary focus, I needed to delve into the larger aspects of infectious diseases. Having looked through two articles already, there is a lot of information that can be used in regards to the pre-production phase.
