A wise man...

A wise man once said:
"At university, you think you are going to learn how to use the equipment but it is the people that you learn to deal with." - Ronnie Fowler, Single Camera Tutor.

Truer words have never been spoken.

I have learnt this with the single camera project I am doing at the moment. As you may recall from the documentary, I have a rather difficult group, but different from each other in many ways. I am not going into it as I like to keep this blog as a record of events and it is public, but I assure you it is an experience I will never forget. To be fair, it was about time that I was placed with a difficult group. All the way through school, 6th form and my first year of uni, I was very lucky with who I got to work with.

It is 1 week and 4 days now until my deadline. It has gone by too quickly and various shoots have been cancelled or have not gone to plan. I have a few pictures and stuff that i will upload but I just wanted to do a quick update about it.

I also have an exciting prospect that I hope will come true! I am doing my cinematography work on Oswald Morris, an absolute living legend and my tutor Brian has said that he is going to film some interviews with him and since I am studying him, he would like to take me along! Such great news, just hope he remembers/ I can get to do it!

Not long until easter now...
