Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say how proud I was of the presentation yesterday. Showcasing some beautiful work, elegantly articulating our outcomes, and managing to be both playful and professionally slick (and to time!) all at once.

I placed myself where I was in order to record the Q&A, but was so enchanted I forgot!

(If any fellow digital hoarders had their phone out and on video, please share!)

Great to see some of you for a chat afterwards. Fantastic end to a very rewarding studio – thanks so much and please go kick some more ass in Semester 2!

Next time you’ll hear from me will be when the marks are in for the final brief.

Cheers,

Stayci

Here it is, as I received it 🙂

Literature or other art forms? Do you want to get your foot in the door

professors and a bit of everyone in between.

As discussed in today’s studio, I strongly recommend participating – it’s a great festival and this contest, which had its inaugural outing last year, is reportedly excellent. A former student of mine made the cut to pitch live and loved the experience, both for the fun and the learning. Details here.

As budding screenwriters/filmmakers, you may be interested in seeing this micro-budget feature film, an example of a 60-minute feature made for $3600 from a cast and crew of less than 10 (with a reportedly positive response from audiences).

Week 11 is fast upon us!

Please email some work ahead (by Sunday) for discussion with your group on Wednesday.

During Thursday will be the opportunity to talk to me one-on-one about your final ‘proof-of-narrative’.

…whose documentary short screens at the highly competitive St Kilda Film Festival 19 May.

(If I wasn’t going to be at my own graduation, I would be sure to attend this world premiere!)

is GO.

Thanks, Liam, for taking the initiative and setting it up.
