What to do...what to do??

Tues 26th Jan 2010

Today our group (Carlina, Tom, Harry & I) decided to brainstorm some ideas for our short film. Our original idea was going to be based on karma, where a homeless person is attacked by a group of people who are then reprimanded for what they did in numerous ways. It then dawned on us that it would be quite difficult to fit it all within our 7minute limit. In class we watched a short film-making documentary by Robert Rodriguez. In the '10 Minute Film School' Rodriguez shows how he managed to make a short film on a low budget, which is very handy for us poor students! Although he managed to spend $3000 which is about $2999 more than I can really afford. We also watched one of his first short films,‘Bed-Head’ which was most probably on a much lower budget and more achievable in our time-limit and level of expertise. At the moment we have only come up with a few basic ideas. However, we plan to meet up in our groups over the weekend to discuss further ideas. Hopefully we will have the basis for our project in time for us to pitch our idea on Tuesday.
