End of the summer blog

-Maybe the only thing I'm wondering about still as far as the role of the unit support and coordinator is the ITA Bugs and how to get them to send the notifications to my gmail instead of my wiscmail. Other than that I think I'm pretty comfortable with everything else as far as the roles of unit support and unit coordinator.

-As far as the system of unit coordinator and support, I feel there could always be a higher level of communication between the two in order to assure things go a lot smoother with less confusion as far as what everyone should or could be doing for the lessons.

-The 3 act structure works just fine and is really a big help when it comes to planning lessons and making time for everything. So no complaints about the 3 act structure at all.

-I really enjoyed the students, units, lessons, and everything we did over the summer in all three camps. I hope we're able to put all the videos up from vegas camp soon because I'm really excited to see the rest of them. And I had some of the most fun getting to know the new freshman.

Blitz Day!

Our blitz video was a satirical commercial about pop ups. I actually chose this topic for our group because I was inspired from the previous two camps in the sections where we talked about computer viruses and safe keep. So I think the biggest thing we learned is that filming takes a lot of re-doing and doing-over and repeating ..and more doing over and repeating after that from different angles in order to make a decent scene. Another thing we learned (or at least me since I was doing most of the directing) is that you should always keep in mind the bigger picture of your movie, meaning you want to keep in mind how different shots and angles will fit together in the composition and where you'll be making cuts and all that good stuff about how the final project will turn out in general. One other thing i'm definitely sure we all learned is that making a movie is a lot of fun. One thing i'm sure we'll all keep in mind for future videos is that we should leave just about enough time for filming as for editing the film.
