As you can tell from the title of this blog, this week was not the best. Not just in boces, but outside of class as well. Recently, a lot has been piled onto my shoulders and I've hardly had time to sleep. There have been a lot of days this week when I ended up having to go to bed at 2 in the morning, only to have to get up 3 hours later for school. Thank god coffee exists!! I'm definitely planning on sleeping a lot this weekend.
So this week in boces, we continued working on our audio projects, which I feel I had a very creative idea for mine. However, I ended up deciding to continue working on it at home since I felt I wouldn't have enough time to finish it at school. Once I got home, I downloaded Audacity and was all ready to go, but then, of course, my computer told me I had a bunch of updates waiting to be installed and had to restart my computer. Wonderful.. thanks, Microsoft. So, I restarted it and it ended up taking about an hour, as I assumed it would, and during that time I accidentally fell asleep waiting for it, and woke up around 7:30 pm.
So basically, I stayed up until 2 am only to get half of the audio done, and then in the morning when I plugged my flash drive with the file into my boces computer, I noticed it rendered wrong and a bunch of sound effects were missing! I'm not sure what I did wrong ? Ugh. In short, I had to turn it in a day late.
We also started working on learning about Premiere, which is exciting! I'm still not sure as to what I'm going to do for my PSA video... Hopefully I'll figure something out this weekend!
And last, my link of interest,
rare behind the scenes footage of Jurassic Park. I just thought it was cool to see what it's actually like to be on set as an actor and director, with the director showing the actors what to do and giving orders. I've always thought Steven Spielberg was an amazing director, and he's someone I look up to, so it's fascinating to see him at work.
Also, question for anyone reading this, what's your favorite movie? I need movie suggestions. c:
The old behind the scenes footage is pretty interesting! It seems a lot different how they set stuff, with a big real set like that!
ReplyDeleteAs for favorite movie at the moment is KungFury because of the cool cgi and 80's inspired music.
I suppose animated films can count as movies. So a pretty good movie is Lupin the Third: Castle of Cagliostro. It's made by the famous animation director Hayao Miyazaki. It's got some great action scenes and a fairly good story for such an action-packed film. And of course it has delish animation. Here's my favorite scene from it:
