To say i'm at a point of despair would be to put it lightly, *enter sarcastic smiling face here*
I don't know what to do, so i have decided to write down my problems in order to resolve them. So about two hours ago i was happy with an idea of filming someone in my scene doing mundane tasks and hopefully it looking good. However, after my tutorial i feel seriously thrown. I came from that not knowing whether what i was doing was going in the right way or not, i have no clue...but i basically think my tutor hated my work, and i really hope i am wrong. I have never used green screen before, so you have to go in eyes open to this fact. I need someone to just say yes or no, nothing too complicated just that. I feel like that was a useless tutorial and i was just sat there saying i don't know, and i don't. I don't know why i make model scenes. I don't know what i want to achieve with them. And i certainly don't know what i think about the human element to them. Argh. Everyone else seems so composed with their work, and then there is me. I want to stabilise my films more, but the earliest i can get out some tracks is 2nd November, THAT is a long time to wait when trying to do work. Gillian mention alandal.co.uk they mix up the things which they green screen, they make it really surreal. I don't know if i want to go that way, and even if i did, i wouldn't have a clue how to. But apparently there is an 'interesting' article on them by Marina Warner.
Gillian also mentioned this 4th wall, it sounded interesting and so i'll look closer at this.
1) Use what footage i have now to make a small montage.
2) Film someone doing mundane tasks ready to put into my work - perfect the green screen.
3) Re-make one of my garden scenes, I'm bored and annoyed so its time for a change.
4) Film this garden scene, 1 - a curving shot leading into a still 2 - a full still 3 - a still which zooms out and makes clear the size of my work
5) Edit and smash all together in the hope of something, just something.
6) crash and cry.
