...interview...

im in the middle of 'editing' a class project.

We had to film an interview...

however... it was not enough, so i tapped out a script... a small story of love, of spite, of pain...
3 years after the release of her best-selling book '6 Steps To Dating', Dr. Zoe Precious has found her time in the spotlight fading, those ideals that she once thought fool-proof have started to crumble around her. In order to help her refocus her life and goals she has flown to Sydney for a holiday. An old friend hears of her trip and contacts her in order to set up an interview for his Television program. However the interview turns out to be a lot more than she expected.

sounds cheesy, maybe.

For class we did the initial interview with 'Dr Zoe' just after he book was released. For Zoe's interview she filmed someone who had taken on the principles and succeeded in the dating realm. For my interview, we examine a darker edge of her book, does she really believe what she has written about.

Ultimately I want the 'old friend' to get nasty and spiteful, and then at the end after 'Dr Zoe' is in a pool of her own tears, does the 'friend' reveal his true feelings.

I don't know if this interview will succeed, looking through the footage, I can see bits that could have been done better.
we had shot the footage once, but the sound turned out dreadful, so we reshot, but were under time pressure in the second shoot, so i wonder if I didn't gloss over some issues in order to save time.
If the interview works I will be most impressed, if it does not, hopefully I will have learned alot for next time, and still get a good grade.

...i believe...

There was a short film that michelle wanted to film, but she is running out of time so i guess thats not gonna happen.

I have a short film idea that I still want to do, its just a matter of storyboarding it, finding a crew and filming it. But now is not the time, i'm enjoying a break after a very hectic two weeks, maybe during the july holidays.

watched dune again last night, lynch's original. I can see the problems this time, they've just tried to cram too much into too shorter time, i'm kinda looking forward to seeing if the alan smithee cut is paced better, even if lynch has washed his hands of it.
