What I love most
This week has personally been a rough one for me but being at BDFI
reminds me of what I really love most and I forget about everything else
when I’m here. Although producing is what I really want to do with the
film/TV industry, I love learning everything from cinematography to
acting here. I think it really helps me to develop as a knowledgeable,
well-rounded filmmaker. Debbie Brubaker came in on Tuesday and shared
with us her experience in producing film. She was very down to earth and
shared a lot of valuable experience, and her story reinforced my desire
to produce.
Working on my first film project, I first seemed overwhelmed with the task
but it is coming together nicely. I got a great producer and I’m learning
a lot from her at the same time. Fellow students no matter what class
level are so willing to help each other out. Scriptwriting seems daunting
since I haven’t creatively written anything for about 6 years, but I got
positive reviews from Wednesday’s class. I’m glad that everyone liked it,
but I wish that I’ve gotten more critical feedback so I could’ve changed
more of my script and really improve it. I don’t know if it’s as solid as
everyone think.
