So this weekend was the 24 hour film making contest, which was fun. It sort of killed the weekend productivity wise for everyone involved, which is especially bad with midterms this week. But I think it was worth it ( at least right now, hope I still feel that way while trying to get things done tomorrow). I like being involved in random creative projects with other people, especially when we have something to show for it at the end. Riley did an awesome job with all the filming and editing, for about 18 hours straight. Heidi provided an awesome clarinet soundtrack. Zach was the co-star and tech master, which enabled us to turn in the thing on time (and in the right format this time!). I just had to dance around and change outfits a lot.We also went to see Tommy (the Who’s musical) on campus, which was really awesome. The set was neat and the whole thing was just really fun to watch.
I haven’t worked on any design stuff AT ALL this weekend, which worries me because this was the weekend when I was suppose to really get started on it and really get moving. Instead I worked on stuff for my music class, helped out with our video, and watched Tommy. But I sort of think it’s actually good I took a “break” from design stuff cause it’s all that stuff that happens ouside of design that inspires and influences my design. Plus it keeps me sane to surround myself by other forms of creativity, at least occasionally. So theoretically I’ll be oozing with ideas now. Or at least after I go to sleep and wake up tomorrow morning.
