Day at Paintworks

Today we came back to Paintworks, which I was excited about! As we will be spending alot of next year year there.

To start the day we watched all the group and personal projects everyone had created. It was really interesting to see everyone's different ideas and what all my classmates had been doing for the past few months.

After the viewings we were asked to filter down all these projects into a 45 minute reel to be shown at the little theatre cinema in bath. It was so hard choosing which films to include, we wanted to include a wide range of genres as well as making sure the majority of people has something shown. After alot of 'umm-ing' and 'ahh-ing', we came to our final choices. I was very chuffed that people wanted to include my personal project 'Life on the Allotment' it made me feel all the hard work was worth while and people had appreciated it!

After Lunch Mike and Rich then took as around a studio that we would most probably be doing projects in next year, they showed us round the set of a previous years project 'Liquid Soap' which is still continuing. It was very interesting to see a proper studio and Mike talked us through what working in a studio is like, which was got me excited to work there next year!

Once back in the Paintworks studio we were split into groups. My group created a stop motion introduction for our show reel in which we included all our DVD cases moving into the letters CMP (Creative Media Practice). We were quite impresses with this, it was also a fun activity!
