Creating Film.

Well, It is another day on the fast track of learning new ideas and ways to create a independent film which I find both interesting but also very frustrating to do. Somedays it just seems to click in my head how this stupid Avid video editor works and then there is frustrations days like today where not much seems to make any sense to me. I just find that this program is more difficult to work with than any one I have ever used and so I guess that even though I am taking a video production class this semester and I am learning how to do everything. Yes, this type of stuff is not easy but the professor just makes it seem so simple to do it since he is the whiz kid at this stuff. I think that I might have to own this program someday just to do all the important video things that I already have obligations for presently as projects and it will be better if I make money with this knowledge included. I know when i signed up for this class that I would get a easy ride with this course but at least I might actually get some good out of learning it. The thing is that when you take on something you thought you know a lot about and later find out that you have not as much knowledge this is a source of embarrassment.. Some people think that you just walk into a class like this and your going to actually pass it and that is not always true as the case with me as I have found that some of the parts of this class are very technical that only can be learned a little at a time. there is no specific trick to doing a independent film project but you had better get to know your skills well or the film your making will not look and sound good. So you got to lead your work with the right video footage and then add your music and sound narration later on so you get get it all synced up to your video properly which can be very frustrating to do. Summing it up you can do this production class but it certainly is not a class for dummies to get involved in doing as it will certainly make you feel lost and inept if your not paying good attention to what the professor is teaching you every time your in class.
