An update from tired, little me..

January 23, 2009

…As you probably understood from the title. I’m damn tired right now. I should probably have been to bed and visited the country of dreams, (Though, I don’t  dream that much anymore) but then I suddenly discovered that my last post was.. Well, it was last year. So I thought I should give people a small update on what I’ve been doing (I should be kicked in my ass for lazy blogging DX).. Like anyone really cares about me. x_X

The reason I’m tired can be summed up with one word: Filmmaking. Have you ever thought about how hard and how much energy you have to give away to make one? If you’ve never have, then let me tell you shortly about all the things you need to think about, do, fix to make one. It’s not really just to purt a camera on record and scream: ”Action!~”
First of, you need a script, then you need to find locations to make the movie (Which I used a whole Friday night on. And have you ever tried to be outside for five instant hours in Norway? In the winter. When a freezing wind almost knocks you down and you carry around equipment worth about 60.000 NOK, 8000 USD. Let me say that you won’t understad what I’m talking about, before you’ve tried it.) Then you had to spand another five hours outside again, to take pictures to out storyboard. Then you had to make a piece of paper for all the camera-directons and stuff, get actors, make a recording plan, make deals with film music creators and so on and so on. It takes FOREVER! @_@
AND THEN! When you finally have all that fixed, do you have to record the whole stupid shit! Which meant eight hours outside in the snow. We didn’t finish recoring yesterday before 01.00 in the night. Gosh!~ I think I’ve never been so tired. And then again, today we finished off at 23.30… Luckily we’ve finished the recording session now, everything that’s left now is the editing part (Which probably is going to be the hardest part…. XXX__XXX ;;_;;) But I won’t even think about that now, now I’ll have to relax for one day before we start that part..

Think about that next time you go to the cinema, it’s ALOT of work behind every single sound you hear, every single movement, every single piece of the movie.

The movie we’re making is basiclly a school assigment. As I’ve talk endeless times before I attend something called a kinda ”media”-class. Right now is the theme short-movie, and we shall make a movie with a limit of five minutes, which shall be send in to a national filmfestival for young filmmakers. Our theme is the traditional story everyone knows ”Little Red riding hood” with a modern twist. (Won’t say anything more right now, I’ll explain the plot later.) If we get a prize or get nominated will it be shown on national television @_@ Though, I doubt that will happend, the movie sucks.. DX But anyways XD We’ve finished our task…

So I’ll end this now. Need…. Sleep…. But I promise I’ll post the movies when it’s finished.
So sayonara for now!~ n_n
