Weekly Reflection 5/21/11 - 5/27/11

This week has been a long week.  I had to mix my audio myself, adjust all of the levels for the entire movie, finally realizing that I progressively lowered the levels towards the end of the movie and needed to redo it, and start the narration.  I now know why big budget films take months and tons of people to make it happen.  I’m doing the majority of it myself, and it is taking its toll on me, and it has yet to show in the film.  At least I don’t see it.  I show it on Tuesday as a private screening, and I show it on Wednesday to the whole school.  I am nervous, I still have a lot of narrating to do, but I have to get it done.  I know I can.
            I did not get my time sheet in on time, and I don’t know what is going to happen with that, but I have proof of my logged times.  I also know that I have a lot of reviews and evaluations I need to get done over these next few days and nights.  Now that the play is over, I have even more time during the day and during the night to get things done.  I have less than a week left to finish the film, and make at least 43 DVDs of it.  I have the skill and efficiency; I just need to do it. 
            I have been getting a lot of requests, and a lot of comments about how excited people are to see it.  I feel like I am dealing well with the pressure, and it is making me work harder.  It is just that the harder I work, the more I find I need to fix, or realize could be better.  Overall I have been happy with my work on this film.  This has been an incredible experience for me, and it has taught me so much.  I am very lucky to have been given this opportunity.
