Yesterday we shot our small documentary piece on an instructor at the Hot Rocks climbing wall in the sports centre. Not expecting much I was planning on getting the group & kit there then leave to do some work. However, the guy we were interviewing, as well as being quite good looking was giving us some really good & interesting material. And they were really good climbers.
Then later on a nine year old kid came along & was free-style climbing the walls - no ropes or anything. It was amazing.
Assessed idea? I think so.
I love my group :)

We have a shoot on Friday, so, as production manager I went to book the kit out today. I had a really good chat with he girl behind the support group desk. Not about anything in particular. We talked about Wacky Races, & James Bond, & playing roulette.
The I went to hunt down Lizzie to get her to sign our forms & we ended up having a really good chat about the course, my friends, my seminar group, , my production group, about other people on the course, & about changing groups next year. And other random things, like juggling with cameras mounted in balls, & interviews.
I told her about how I came to my interview in my anti-fit jeans (covered in holes) & my Dad's over-sized cardigan. Not so I could look like a tramp (although in all fairness I probably did), but because I didn't want to pretend to be someone I'm not. I don't usually go walking around in a suit with a briefcase, so why should I come to my interview in one? I wanted to be myself, because if B'mouth were going to accept me (which they did, thank Christ for that), they were going to take me as me.
I've been saying this recently to a few people, that there's no point pretending to be someone you're not to try & get people to like you. Mainly because you, as in whoever is reading this, are so much better than the person you're trying to win over. You should never have to change to make friends because I have no doubt that you are loved enough already. If, however, you take this route, it's only a matter of time before that person realises that you're not who you attempted to be & will split away. Rendering the whole thing useless.
Be yourself. Yourself is beautiful enough.

Okay, so this is Monday, & I'm still tackling my essay. In all honesty I could have done it easily over the weekend but with coming home from work I'm never as switched on as I could have been.
So, today is the day! Word count is 848 at the moment & I'm planning on getting another thousand done by this evening so I can go the the pyjama party and celebrate getting our house for next year.
Here's to typing fingers.

Okay, instead of all of us uploading photos all over the shop I've set up a photobucket account.
Just log on and upload any photos you like in different folders or whatever.

Today I edited our group narratives assessed piece.
It was good for me, because it taught me that I was actually alright at editing, & therefore my previous fears were unnecessary.
It took eight hours.
It was very trying. Possibly the worst location to film on sound-wise. But challenging... definately challenging...
Chris was supportive. I appreciated it.
It looks hot.
