(long post warning. cheese warning.)
yeah, so...school's done. forever. 5 years at sheridan, finally over. it still hasnt really sunk in. things have turned out pretty good at the end. while last year was a good experience (for me), this year was even better; working on my own film, working the way i like to work. i should really treasure this experience, because this is most likely the last time i can ever do something like this on my own terms (for the most part).
lots of sleepless nights and crazy hours have finally culminated into a film i'm actually okay with. (dunno if it's "crazy awesome"--refer to my huge end-of-3rd-year post). i actually got it done, yay...one weird thing i realized is that i pretty much only worked 4 days a week for the entire year (travel home friday, sleep saturday, church sunday, no work at all in between). but during those 4 days that i did work, i worked my butt off. the time in between really helped keep me sane, i think.
"entering the industry", something we've talked about so many times over, is a pretty daunting thing for me at the moment. everything's changing now, i'm not really sure what to do at this point, but i guess i'll figure it out. i'm pretty sure we'll all do fine, though. i'm really really proud of our year and the work that we turned out. i'm sure others share the same sentiment. we got some real talented people here.
i guess i'm gonna miss school; not just the freedom (relative to what's coming), but especially the people in our year. i've learned something from everyone i've ever talked to (or from conversations i listened in to while working), and had some good times. hope everyone can keep in touch, i wanna know where everyone's at. (at the risk of sounding pathetic...get facebook, look me up. add me on msn. gimme your blog url. etc.)
can't post without including some images, so up above are pages from my "portfolio" that i had to hand in to pass so i can actually get outta school. for those of you lookin' for some mr. elephant goes to work goodness, check back in a few days, i'm finally gonna post it up on youtube since it's finally been screened and i've handed out copies everywhere anyway.
(long post warning over. cheese never ends though.)
