What I learned in this class..

This class has defiantly effected my ideas about being a filmmaker. I can truthfully say now after completing this course that i am actually a filmmaker because i have finished my first film project. this class has effected me ideas about a filmmaker in that fact that i will think about film in more of an artistic way. You must think more creatively and outside the normal permitters of typical filmmaking thinking about sound and image on a whole new level. I also think that the images you show and the rhythm it is edited is critical in the astatic of a film. I have learned that I like directing and feel most comfortable in that position. I directed the music video and installation project and I liked working with different people with different skills and combining all of those talents to make a uniform concept and project. I also liked the self portrait project, were as a director i can discover my own style in a subject more personal to me. I have also learned that I very much like the experimental and avant-garde style and techniques and will continue to learn more about the subject in Kruel's Avant-garde film studies class next semester.I have leaned that filmmaking in general is the greatest thing ever. I am very happy that I am a film studies major. The past week I worked my tail off in the edit lab working on these last final projects but seeing it all put together and everyone enjoying the entertainment that I created makes me feel that I am actually learning real things in school that can have an affect on the real world. I have always been a creative person and filmmaking provides the ultimate outlet for my creativity. I have very much enjoyed this class and it has been one of the best classes i have ever taken and it has focused my creative talents that will hep me be a better filmmaker as a whole.
