Another semester, another blog.

So I’m not sure anyone noticed, but the twenty blogs I did during the summer all had a title that slightly related to the blog post itself, but were mainly stolen from the great musical “Into The Woods”. I decided to keep that theme of song titles from the musical because it helped me keep focused, but also let me work off from something. So instead of struggling to find something to miraculously write about, I drew inspiration from the songlist. And now as I write this, I realise how similar that was to what I am about to embark on.

This semester I am doing a studio that focuses on how ideas become a fully fledged short film. How almost every great film out there stemmed from one small idea. All of those poorly written blog posts were inspired from those song titles, and I just fleshed them out into great ideas. So it’s exciting to be doing something I’m slightly familiar with.

Now these post are supposed to be reflections on my class readings and screenings, but I wanted to make this initial post, a prologue, to first congratulate myself for last semester, and to celebrate this new one. I’m already having so much fun in class, doing writing exercises and brainstorming ideas with amazing people. It’s going to be a good year still, and I hope I can keep things up.
