With the lyrics of my favorite music blasting, I am almost completely done with my movie. I booked editing time Monday after my morning classes to finish this thing once and for all. I only hope someone will be there to help me compress my movie files.
Oh, almost forgot that I have to make a slideshow, too! Oh boy. I'll have to export my movie and then save certain files to another project to make the other video. I think I might do the outtakes with the interview, or do the outtakes separately and only have the slideshow over the interview.
Checklist for Monday: Camera, camera cord, and patience. Let's get this done!
Follow one film student's movie production for the Spring 2011 semester's TFA 420 class at Buffalo State College, taught by Professor Rera.

Finishing Up
I finished shooting everything else I needed yesterday morning and I am nearly done editing. I just need to finish the ending credits and add some music and I'll be done. I was going to bring the edited version to class but it would've taken nearly an hour to export, and it's not even done yet so I won't bother.

Pushing My Luck
I'm hoping to shoot the final shots I need on Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning. I'll bring the hoodies to have Julia and Jimmy wear and then get a camera from the school, along with a digital camera to take photos with.
I decided that I would lay my old interview over photographs and stills from the footage I already shot and will shoot in the near future. This way I won't have to redo the interview and will have very little work left to do.
I still need to finish editing the footage I already shot, but I'm starting to think that I won't finish in time for the film festival. True, it's about three weeks away, but I'm nervous. I should probably edit tomorrow after my history class until I have to work, and make a list of the things I need to shoot still. That way I'll know for sure what's left to do.
For now, I might as well go out and buy my own Rubik's cube because I won't be able to borrow Jane's before Tuesday. Maybe I'll have the two actors pose in Delaware Park, where we're shooting, with books instead of a Rubik's cube and a book.
And don't get me started on the DVD stuff. I haven't even thought about compression and design or anything. I totally forgot how to do the compression of the movies, and the music I have I haven't even imported yet into Final Cut Pro. Sooo much work. Sooo little time.
And no credits, done, either.
