Video Blog



This project was a friggin mess. I originally started on a totally different project and topic. 90% of the way through the project the partner that I teamed up with abandoned the project for some assinine reasons. I was very happy when we had a presentation from Natalia and she actually spoke about convictions that she had while making her film.

I remember at a point when we got to ask questions I asked her about the emotional rock she had to deal with while she was on patrol with some non-law enforcement people looking for illegal immigrants. The dilemma she had was something similar to what I had to deal with with my partner.
On the bright side I learned to get releases and contracts from all partners in my video projects. I also hope that the partner that I was with learned that as a media maker that they will come across questionable material in their careers and they will HAVE to stick to the project. If they can't then maybe the media world is not for them.

So a final middle finger to my ex partner that left me with my..........project.... hanging in the breeze.

The making of this final video project for me was a lot of fun. I learned how to use the cameras and I enjoyed the editing. I did not use final cut pro, instead I used Adobe Premiere. Much much easier to use.

That part was very enjoyable for me.
