Week 1

Well, here it is. The final semester at Ball State (for my undergrad degree). My last production class. I think I'm going to tear up a little bit.

Alright, maybe not. Tim's 434 Advanced Video Production sounds like it will be a challenging and enlightening class. I've had class with Tim in the past and also recorded some ADR of Tim (playing the part of a funeral orator), so I know the class will be fun because of Tim, if for no other reason.

It should be a good experience filming and working with kids (something I haven't had the pleasure to do, yet). Plus the final product will be sent to Oprah since she's donated a sizeable amount of cash to MOM. It's a little exciting to think that Oprah will be viewing something that I helped create. And as always, having a completed DVD to hand to a potential employer is always a good thing.

The other project for the semester, a video with seemingly no creative restraints, should also be a blast to create. I've still got a couple months to plan everything, but I've already got a fairly good idea of what I'm going to do. But who knows? I could always abandon the ideas that I have now and go with something completely different.
