Lesser of two evils

So I missed the Southern Circuit Film tonight, and Brent knows why. I heard it was fantastic and a real tear-jerker.


But I did get alot done tonight, so I feel like I didn't waste any time or effort. Hopefully I'll do good on the lab practical Thursday.

DER-De-DER

I'm still thinking about doing the Evolution idea. More to come.

BURP

I have no idea what I will be doing for my social/political commentary. I still would very much like to do the Evolution idea, but I'm not quite sure how I would do it. I know I would need to get a few different perspectives.

For example:
Dr. McKeown- Zoology prof, must accept evolution for Biology to make sense
Kaitlyn Mayfield- Bible thumper, but wants to be a Biologist
???????????????- They coincide perfectly
???????????????- Don't give a rat's ass

Abstract Video Ideas

Our ideas for our next project was due today. Woop woop.

Eh. I've changed my mind about 4 times already, but I think I finally have the basis for it. I'll need one HUGE and TALL light, one small light, night time, and an actor/actress. It will most likely be in black and white; I just think it looks good. Simple, but still complex elements.

The story behind it is what every college student goes through, at least once. I know I deal with it daily. To get into Millsaps we each had to be the best and push ourselves. Sometimes it was our parents pushing, our peers, our teachers from high school or even now the professors here. Working constantly, don't pause don't relax don't forget don'tbreath workworkwork. Usually we can overcome these normal college stresses. Sometimes though, for a few, it becomes too much.

Let Them Know: The Story of Youth Brigade and BYO Records

Last night the documentary was about the punk rock "scene," and I found it mildly interesting. Was it my cup of tea? Nope. Was it well edited? Yep, you bet.
Jade and I had wondered what program he used to create the film; it had great visuals, but you could tell that it wasn't created by some mega-fancy studio/program. No Warner Bros. here. I was actually surprised that he had used Final Cut Pro. We are using that in our little dinky videos and here he is with an entire movie created with it. Wow.
I found it a wee-bit long, even though it was barely an hour and a half long. Maybe I just needed some coffee, who knows.
