During this week myself and Ben meet at my apartment for about an hour to post the new sponsor logos on the page.  We had technical difficulties and could not get the images to appear, but the links for the images do work.  We are going to consult Jon and see if he can help us out.  I have continued to read my online book and as of right now I am on page 50.  I have found a better coding for dummies book that I will buy in march.  I feel this book has better examples and will help me find how to do better design aspects of coding.  I spent about 3 hours on saturday and sunday watching the films taking notes.  Today I went through and re watched some of the films and graded all.  It took about 3 hours.  I also picked up the movie tickets from Carmike and will bring them along with the purses I mentioned last class.  Next weekend I am going to spend my saturday working on coding and any other projects that come up during the week.  I am going to see if Ben can meet up with me and work together on the webpage/ fix the problems we had this week.

Today I received the go ahead from Carmike Cinema's to give us 10 tickets.  Me and Ben meet on monday for an hour go over items to get done.  We were going to do the link the 1hour 1 take video race forms to the site but it was already done by someone else.  We then were going to continue to work on creating a webpage from scratch.  I have downloaded the E-Book from the library to study HTML.  I will begin to read more the book and practice the tasks that are being shown in the book.  I have also found a local business woman who said she would like to donate her handmade purses to the festival.  She just needs to know how many we would need and she can see what she can donate.

Work for 02-03-2013

This weekend I meet with Jon and a few others for our quick meeting in friday.  I am going to be taking my ipad to the regal and carmike on monday to ask them about free movie tickets for visions video race.  Some time this week myself jon and ben are going to meet and create the google documents for the abstract essays for grading when the time comes.  Myself and Ben will be working on building a webpage from scratch in hopes of creating a new visions look for next year.

Visions Work 1/27/12

I had my first meeting with the department.  I meet with Ben before the meeting and he showed me how to upload and edit bio's.  I will work with him on monday to go through and make the edits and add pictures.  I am also tasked out with helping get movie tickets with Ben for the film makers and scholars.  I have also acquired for visions some hand made purse's that will be donated to visions for the female film makers and scholars.  I am going to pass my information to Marge about my contacts in the SVO and TSO here at UNCW.

Made it into the Film Major

I am finally living my dream as a college film major.  The real hard work begins right now.  I am really excited about my visions class next semester.  It is going to be a real challenge but I know I am up for the task.  I would just like to thank my classmates and my teachers from FST 110-205.  Thank you all so much for helping me and helping me accomplish my dream.

Look Back

Looking back on this semester I feel I have grown as a filmmaker.  I have learned that I have a knack for producing.  I think it is because I am really organized and try really to stay ahead of schedule.  I have been the producer for for every project this year.  I have really wanted to put my hand in as directing.  I feel that editing is one of my strong suits and I really enjoy doing it.  One of the things I have learned about being a filmmaker is that if something can go wrong it will.  On everyone of my projects something has gone wrong from sound or batteries.  I am really looking forward to taking the directing course in the future as well as editing.  I hope that I can keep growing as a film maker.

Next Semester

Next semester I am taking the Visions, French Cinema, War and Cinema.  I am really looking forward to the Visions.  I think it is going to be an amazing learning opportunity.  I am really interested in my War and Cinema class.  I am wondering what we are going to be learning about and how I can relate it to my war experiences.  I really wanted to take 302 doc. class next semester so hopefully I can get it in the fall of next year.
