Day 4

Good evening world and the people whose power decides my fate. Its day 4 and I have lost the zeal of blogging. Blogging was supposed to be fun, now my main blog has became barren because I have channeled all my prowess into this blog. If my effort doesn't pay off I think I can just go drown myself and hence rid the popular group of their eyesore.

This is going to be offensive but for the good of all students including those belonging to the elite clique, some lecturers should work on the monotony of the lessons because when we explain our reasons and comments, we are told the exact same point we were trying to get across, it is like "Were you even listening?". I minced words, that's not very me but then I don't want to get a D. I think that paragraph probably got my name out of the MOI database. But it is also good that we were shown some videos on what should be and what should not be.

On Day 4, we went in dept and progressed in our pre production. Alright, I totally forgot what I penned in day 3 because that was such a haphazard post and I was not in the mood.

Let us begin with wishing Kezia a happy period.

Well Iam in charge of equipment like the video camera.
Maj is the overseer and the scribe.
Natalya is the software handler, meaning she will use the programmes to fine touch the finished product, well I had to make kezia in charge of it too to ensure ensure in all my innards that nothing will mysteriously go awry. I am a cynic and I won't apologize. Love me or hate me just don't ignore me.

So we have decided to make the video like a movie which reenacts the past. For the introduction we have unanimously decided that it will be like Survival, with the natural environment and such, but, since it's a student work showcase, it will be a digital collage of our works and the fast forwarded edits of the contents. Too complicated? Then read sentence another 4000 times or watch final product.

We have decided on a group name after creative Maj looked at the "Press to exit" sign mounted on the door switch.

After the mini "Survivor" thing thing, we will fade into a scene whereby each of us are making our way to school. Maj will walk, I don't know what can Natalya do to get to school and I will be taking a cab. We all arrive at a dark room with 4 chairs where Kezia is already waiting impatiently, we will look at the camera and start talking like it is an interview, there will be a voice over, probably one of us will change our speech pattern, accent or lower or increase it by a few octaves.

Thats the opening and thats where we are at now. Ok time for my obtuse self awareness moment. It's where I admit where I am wrong and NO it isn't being opinionated. I think I have been hogging up most of the conversations and not giving Maj and Kezie a chance to speak or rather, most of the ideas we are using came from me, it's like I am some control freak. *Think video fundamentals when somebody just dominated every discussion hence me being quiet.* Maybe its like, since I have held it in during video fundamentals, I just decided to word vomit on this group. Well I was forced to because every time I opened my mouth, my words just evaporate faster than water on a petri dish. And yes I think my analogies are good enough for the smart 4000 IQ people.

Ok, this is the professional blog, the private one shall be filled with the inner most thoughts. If you heard a light giggle emanating as you read that line, chances are it's not me and you will have to consult an exorcist.
