Podcamp 2 show coming up. Got me to thinking about how to make each show easier for someone to get into if they're listening for the first time.
Actors in the scene we directed and shot are Hannah Barth and Ed Hoopman.
Laura, John and I created a short film based on a scene from The Blue room. The class is about directing actors and I was the director, Laura the DP and John handled the sound. These soft skills are very different feeling from all the technology skills we've been learning. Its spinning around like a child in clockwise fashion, then reversing suddenly to a counter clockwise spin. You feel totally different, dizzy and yes nauseous.
I had a great experience in this new role, but to be honest, I had a lot of problems figuring out exactly what the responsibilities of a director are and how he/she relates to the production crew.
As always, there's never enough time, but in this module it seems everyone was frustrated by the compressed production schedule.
