Digital Skills

This module was a test of our ability to work with and edit digital film. We were told we had to make a 60 second film on greed. After a bit of a slow start on the old the inspiration front, I actually really enjoyed this project. Though it was only a short film, I put quite a lot of thought into it's design. From the music choice to who out of my friends I was going to bribe into acting in it. Apart from acting i did everything else myself; writing, producing, directing, filmimg and editing. Though I have worked as a production assistant on a couple of films, I've never done any of the above before. It was really quite fun learning how to do them.

I hate writing, I really do. Between Dyslexia and ADD, it's a nightmare. Without fail my mind will wander off, even if its just further ahead than my typing, thinking on what I need to put down. The next thing I know I've written something that makes no sense, not even to me. Words written backwards. Sentences written backwards. Entire paragraphs missing, because I've got ahead of myself and actually thought i'd typed them already, then continued as if they were actually there. Trying to remember what was supposed to be there or what that weird word is, is often beyond me, forcing me to start again.
