Week 2

This week was not as busy as expected, and could have been scheduled to go under the 50/50 rule, as it appears I have alot of time, and therefore can hold off on some things. Which is a big no no, if VFS has taught you anything procrastination is your Achilles heal and can make you suffer with plenty of sleepless nights trying to finish off your work in the last week or two, so I am really trying not to do this for my final and ultimate project, which should and will be (positive thinking) my showcase piece from my tenure here at VFS.

The big thing I got from this week is some good advice from meetings, and had a good meeting with my mentor as well, as he helped me stay in focus on my tasks at hand, and really made me aware of what I need to do. Which is take out the Sony EX1, practise shots, and practise techniques in my effects such as ink drops, blood (paint) splatters, and finish off my storyboard.

Got ahold of my martial artist, who I am grateful so far, as he really seems enthusiastic about this project. He has some weapons to bring to the shoot at the end of the month, which saves me some hassle. And am researching for ninja outfit, as well as got ahold of a camera crew which has this camera Red One, a very nice and expensive camera that can shoot 120fps, which would be really sweet for my action sequences.
