Much like my goals from Film-TV1, I’d like to learn practical and theoretical skills to apply to coursework, and my own work. However, with the stuff I learned last semester, there is more potential to experiment and delve deeper into those skills. I’d certainly like to take charge on a project, rather than simply contribute, and moreso guide a creative vision.
At the same time I’d love to get behind the camera for a documentary; the prospect of filming on the front lines, as it were, is a lot more exciting than drama where the filming is choreographed. Though saying that, by the sounds of it so far, documentary still requires plenty of knowledge and research beforehand, so rather than just filming everything, you film the most important things.
Overall I’d simply like to commit to the process of producing a documentary I can be happy with.
