These past plenty of weeks have put me through quite a bit of the twists and turns on independent film making. There are your downsides where you have to learn to adapt and try to take whatever you can from a situation and there are your upsides where you once again have to take whatever you can because they are limited. Things have been a little difficult lately with all of the filming but there have been some pretty lucky things as well.
Over the course of the project so far I've received a lot of help from many friends and new acquaintances which have saved me on some of my personal deadlines and goals. Most recently I've spoken to my UofA advisor and her assistant about the edited footage I've taken so far and help on the rest of the project. Although I made my doubts aware to them about my work, they've reassured me that I am making good progress for such an ambitious project. Other really convenient help from this past week has been from Dany Joumaa in helping me with some background music in edited scenes. Not only has Dany provided me with music he's created but he has also helped me learn a bit of the scorer's job and how they work. I'm happy to be learning a lot from some experiences and people rather than trying to get everything from books. It's great to have so many people willing to help out and I can't wait to thank them in the end of all of the saves.
Other news involves compiling all a ton of notes I've written over the course of working on this project to make a working presentation and paper. Places that I've been visiting for use of their location have been quite helpful and nice as well. Hope to show y'all a bit of the actiony after I finish gathering some clips.
