Final Project

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

For the final project, Igor and I will be doing a commentary video for our three videos (which reminds me, Episode 3 is should be up soon, it’s having a little trouble getting out of post-prod). It will be a Diggnation style video with Igor and I going through our three episodes and discussing what we learned from producing each of them (although I’m sure some memories from shooting will come up as well). The video will be around twenty five minutes since that is the approximate runtime of our three episodes. If there is any thing in particular you would like to hear about, leave a post in the comments and we’ll be sure to try and include it.

The thr33 parter

Friday, February 1st, 2008

Igor and I are collaborating on this 3 part project. The concept for our piece is what it takes to get a new band off the ground. The subject for our piece is going to be Igor’s band which he is currently starting. We chose to chronicle the bands first three gigs in a Zefrank style video. Igor is doing the creative writing part of the episodes while I will be filming and editing it together. We are planning to focus more on the lighter, funnier side of the bands first gigs and all the things that go awry when a band first starts out. Other than using a Zefrank style, we don’t think there is much if anything like this out there. And while there is an aspect of comedy and entertainment to this, we hope it will allow a candid look into the struggle of starting a band.
