Another day on video prep. This group had real problems getting their ideas organised so we spent a bit of time working up their treatment so the script can be written for next time.

Again I showed them bits from movies to start them thinking how movies are put together. The films I'm using are "Resident Evil" 1 & 2, "Once Upon A Time In Mexico" and "Sin City". Apart from the fact these are some of my favourite films, I could have used anything to point this out. It's obvious to me how films work, but I'm trying to get them to think about films in new ways, pay attention to the way they work.

Bedtime, watched a program on the concept of "Crumpet" all about 70s sexy actresses... oh man talk about hitting me where I live.
