Congratulations to me! I was visitor 998, 999, 1000, 1001, and 1002.
I'm thinking about the last film I did, and how much I wish I didn't do it. There was some interesting stuff going on, but so much coordination and etc. goes into making one that when the end result doesn't feel worth it, I get ANGRY! I want to bite, and snither, and snap around at an empty room. Or, in the case of making this last one, to my film partner in the editing lab chalk-full of other people.
Since the beginning of the project I had doubts. Lots and lots of doubts.
But that was last semester. And it does make sense in way that not every film I make will receive the same attention.
Looking back on the school year, I decided that it was successful. There was a huge volume of responsibilities, and I managed to keep most of them. Maybe I'll add up the casualties.
P 211 -- Dropped
W 320 -- End product -- unsatisfying
W 336 -- Didn't do final assignment, worth 30 per cent
A lot of my school suffered from playing music. But at least my music didn't suffer from playing school.
It's hard to edit WITH somebody. If you know what I mean. You either get power-trippy and hate yourself or do nothing and hate the other person.

But yeah. I'm especially awful to edit with.
