Filmmaker's Diaries: (13/09/2018)
Hello and welcome to another Filmmaker’s diary!
This week had been a lot of work and waiting and not much finished product to show for.
Last Friday I went to the bank and was told that come Monday my credit card should be on its way and I would only have to stop by once again to sign one last paper. So I had been waiting for the call… waited until today (Thursday). Without a phone call, I decided to go there and … still, we had to make another application and wait again… (Still, in the summertime he tells me)
Best hope it’s to get it by tomorrow… the signing paper that it’s not the card… the card actually still needs to be cleared.
Well on the account of waiting for the card, I did not go to take care of some other important situations.
But that’s ok, I’ll make it work.
But still no credit card, so no renting a car, so no going to places to film… still…
Other than that I edited another small video. This time about a town in Norway. Not the best, but it was fun to do and good practice… both to get some camera experience and to experiment as a travel videographer for the first time. My computer is becoming extra slow ... hours and hours waiting on the smallest of projects.
Saw a lot of points to take into consideration and I’m now determined to make a “travel video” in the place I live in. It has a lot of potential. I ‘ll make it awesome and use it as the first official travel video for the company. Some good ideas there.
(It’s funny how some people think that if you’re a director your already masterful in every aspect. Sometimes you say, that you need to hired a colourist or a drone operator or a camera man… and some people react has if you should do it.
“Shouldn’t you do that? Since your a filmmaker?” “Isn’t that cheating?” Or another variation. I usually say: “Have you ever looked at the credits of a feature film?” “ Most Editor’s have no idea about writing and most Dp’s have no idea about costume designing…”
I believe I’ll make a separate post about this soon. But for now, I’m loving the learning/ experimenting with this videographer/ film comercial/ real estate company . )
That’s pretty much it for now… the script I have been writing here and there. I’m sad to say I haven’t picked up has a daily ritual, since I stoped , yet.
It’s ok. I will now. Been reading and doing courses about writing and Film Photography. Some good stuff
As always, thank you for reading.
