Making a Movie…in 2 weeks
June 30, 2008
Last night I added a new page-my summer list page, just a list of stuff I wanna do and I plan to scratch off each thing I finish. Hopefully I can finish them all up…maybe. First thing I chose was to make a movie…I decided this a few days ago. I thought about what I wanted it to be about then I decided I’d do a music video. Not a music music video but a video with music all the way thru. I guess it sounds kinda boring maybe, but I think it’ll turn out to be alright. I filmed a little bit for it on Saturday but since I didn’t format my memory card in the camera I kinda lost all of the footage. Oopsie. And today was supposed to be a catch up day but since the sun didn’t come out and it was cloudy, I decided to not film. The catch to making this movie is to have it done in at least 2 weeks. I wanna make sure I actually finish it and make it nice, so I’m setting a deadline hoping that’ll help. I also have to work on the script and stuff with the other movie my friend and I will be shooting later on this month-well July is tomorrow but whatever.
I still need to choose my music for the video and decide what all I wanna do in the video. It has to be kind of something worth watching and nothing lame…so I wanna make sure I get good stuff. Which is why I’m kinda glad I lost Saturday’s stuff cuz I had no idea what I was doing for the first 20 seconds or so. LOL. I did my makeup today really nice, its a Beyonce inspired look that I watched a few weeks ago and I kept wanting to try it out so today I thought, “I’ll do it!” And I did, I didn’t have the exact colors that the girl in the video had but I found some that were pretty similar. If anyone is interested in the tutorial for themselves or to see what it looks like then click here. The look is pretty simple but really pretty and my eyes came out pretty decent compared to last time when I tried to do a different tutorial by someone else and my eyes looked awful. This is another thing I wanted to do this summer, was to learn how to do cool eyeshadow stuff and blend colors and stuff cuz I don’t know how to blend that well yet so this stuff on Youtube is helpful. And its fun cuz I like trying out new eyeshadow things. LOL.
Oh and I made this lady at the store so mad at me today cuz it was her on one side and then this other lady on the other side going forward. Well I was in the middle and trying to get through, right? So the lady on the other side moved forward and the other one who I made mad was heading straight ahead like me. Well there was a tiny space left and I started pushing my cart to go through. She looks at me and gives me this look before trying to get in that space to leave the aisle. I took a glance at her and figured that if she wanted to play this game then she’d have to do that w/ someone else, so I went around her and in the space and she pulled back on her basket and said, “Um, excuse me!” Lady, you know I was originally going there anyway and as aggressive and fast as I push my cart you could’ve been out of the aisle too like 2 seconds right after me. I don’t put up with people who just hang out in the way or people who wanna try and compete like its a race. I don’t go to the store to race, I have to get stuff. If you wanna race meet me on a computer game, otherwise move out of the way before you get swollen ankles from the cart. LOL. No but really I watch where I push my cart and stuff but I go fast and I will go around someone if they’re in the way. I’m not rude about it but I don’t like to spend all day at the store playing games and taking my time if I have other stuff to do. (This is sort of a part II to shopping with stupid ppl post or whatever last time’s post was called.)
This is a long one again, sorry but I had a story to tell (and w/ my stories I like to tell them right) and a lot of stuff to share.
Hey, Rachel! I got your comment on my xanga. I haven’t used it in years, until then. I don’t know if I will blog in it or not. I’ve tried lots of different blogs but I still haven’t found one I like yet.
So how is the movie? Have you started it yet? The poor lady with her buggy, it’s a wonder you didn’t just run her over after what she said. I’ve been stuck between people in an aisle before and it’s frustrating.
