On the set of 'Take a Look'

Its always nice when somebody says 'i'm so glad you're the producer', it make you feel worthwhile.

Day 1 of 'Take a Look'

Today we shot scene four of Janine's Scripted short film 'Take a look'
We began filming at about 7.30pm our Actress was very lovely and really Focussed, we got all our shots for scene 4 done and we film again on Tuesday. problem is we need an older lady :/ ahhhh, there are always difficulties :/ ah well, any way back to today. so yeah started filming at half 7 in the evening at Jasmina's house, lighting and camera was set up for a wide shot at the door on arrival, from what i could see everything looked beautiful , the framing was really nice, no extra shadows where in shot, just brill, in other words today went so well lets hope the rest go just as well.

Heres to the 8th!


peace out

Youtube: Fast Track to Fame?

As part of my university course (Film and TV Production we had had to make a 6 min documentary on a subject are of our choice. i decided on social networking and how it brings people together but as its was only supposed to be 6 mins long my group and i decided on narrowing it down on one area of social networking, youtube... some people dont see youtube as a social networking but with all the vloggers out there organising social events its kind of become one. We then decided to focus on the fame aspect of youtube, is its easy to get noticed online. I personally watch quite a lot of youtube videos and came across Rick C a couple of years ago i liked his stuff and what he did online. i also came across daveyboyz and found that he had found fame amongst itv so i got in contact with them both and organised interviews. The shooting week was very stressful (for me) i take things very seriously and become very focused on my task ahead. I was Director and presenter as well as part of the editing team. But I am preety proud of the out come i didn't orginally like it but the more i look over it the more i realise that for a first yera documentary its not actually that bad although i hate seeing myself on screen blergh :/ . if you would like to watch the documentary just follow this link

Its got to that point where i feel i should have a boyfriend, i get lonely and feel so unattractive i know there are loads of people in this same situation, what am i doing wrong?, am i too traditional? But then again i think of my dreams and aspirations and feel 'you know what a relationship will just get in the way'. I really don't know what to do. I've always seen myself as somewhat career minded but being at university and away from my home roots i tend to get lonely dispite having friends around me. Do i really need a boyfriend? or do i need to find a hobby to distract myself?

I always think in ways of the romantic film when a male and a female are sat in a bar/ library/ cafe etc and their eyes meet, they smile , he walks over (or she times change) and they talk, about culture (books films the arts) they then exchange numbers and decide to meet again... why is life not at all like this? its always seems to be girl and guy in a club , they are both pissed, they kiss, kiss again and they go home with each other... that's not something i really fancy to be honest. If i have to wait for that romantic moment then i will, i would prefer to get to know somebody before anything. i guess i think of life to much as a film, I seem to think in scripts ever since i was told i have a talent with writing, i will always disagree I lack so much belief in myself, but i guess most people do to be honest we are our worst critics.

I'm finally getting somewhere with the guitar, 6 years and i can finally play. i'm no Brian May or Jimi Hendrix (infact no where near) I have only been playing for 2 months but i am impressed with my progress, i even wrote a song it was originally about no one and besed on a load of facebook status updates from my friends but after a while i thought about it and i realised its the way i feel about this guy.(but i'll leave it at that). i managed to squeeze in my favourite chord which if you are at all interested is Cadd9.

I realised this is the first time i have blogged since i met Johnny Depp (which may i add was sooooooooo amazing haha) A lot has happened but i'm just going to try and start afresh with the whole blogging situation see where i takes me, you never know.

thats all from me for now i believe

love and hugs
