Today

Today has been rather eventful. I went to GEN200 in the morning, and learnt about questionnaires. I then hung out with an SIT cat. Mreow.

The next few hours involved waiting around in Downtown campus lounge, reading a book and eating a pizza and chatting to various people and having Bone Cultist outfits from Bones of Essimer shoved on me.

hi

Anyway. At about 2:40pm Me and V headed on down to set up for my documentary. I decided to use the Raw Gallery as I could utilize the sun coming in from the windows and wouldn't have to have so many lights. My subject turned up about at about 10 past three, and I set her up with a lapel. I put one on myself too, of which I was all excited to because I felt real fancy like a tv reporter or something.

wee look at me I'm so pro

We ran through the interview a few times, and I believe I got a decent amount of footage to use from the Black Magic camera. I love that thing man. If SIT ever wants to just randomly get rid of it for free, I'll have it. We wrapped the shoot and I headed up to the MacLab to offload footage and audio. 

While that was doing that, I went and watched Lana shooting her interview, mostly because I wanted to hear what Lenon had to say, hehe. It was very interesting and the set up looked very nice compared to my bean bags, prolight, window, lapels and BMC, haha

I ended up sticking around until the end. We put stuff away and then I wandered on back again to the MacLab. I chucked my footage into Da Vinci Resolve because I wanted to see if I could remember what Ash M taught us about colour correcting and grading. I sort of did. I fiddled around with the light and the colour anyway just as a test and I think it looks pretty awesome. I see what people mean of the colours coming out of the flat image of the BMC. Such incredible very wow.
