The Prophecy... (my Second serving of film directing and editing)

And JAred-the-frustrated-director strikes again!! (Honestly, i really thought that i will never be able to direct any films since the second year movie ever again! Sob! hehehk) But guess what? our advisers asked to me to make a concept for a class prophecy for the seniors! (i lOved them ever since!) Plus, it will be presented during Prom night!! ( I was still in 3rd year college at that time)..

Anyway, I was like "HEck! are they really sure they want me to do it?" ( I really don't think i could come out with something spectacular, you know).. so, they gave me THREE WEEKS to conceptualize... and that TIME really did serve its purpose.. moving on, a friend of mine (katrina) suggested that i make a mini film! that freaked me out! with the time span of TWO weeks prior to the actual prom, i really don't think that the film would make it! (it's the EDIting part that makes movie making time-consuming.. so don't fret when the release of "NEW MOON" will be postponed from it's original date.. that only means the production staff are cooking something really BIG!) Anyhow, Kat kept on encouraging me to make a mini film, so I decided "hey. why not make a mini "award Show"? (ala OSCARS).. and the rest is history.... (i sound as if im making a Blockbuster picture here! hehehk... bleh!!)

So, here's the clip that i've been dying to show you guys!! I do hope you like it!! (FYI: the whole thing is made up of 10 mini clips with 10 different concepts.. I shot it with a JVC DVD cam and edited it using Sony VEGAS pro 8... and, u can skip the "names" part if u want....)




Believe it or not, this was taken at the MED-Surge room.. (a very small room where students do their return demonstrations for OR and DR).. my classmates and I converted the room into a "set" in 5 hours..and the shoot went on for two days (with breaks in between, of course).. anyway, my sincerest "thank you!" to all those who participated during the shoot, the actors, my friends/ L-sessioners( the cheerers/set designer/make up artists/motivators), MAra (the official make-up artist and head stylist), Joab (for letting me stay over at his house for 2 days during the whole "editing" thing), Mr comia (for the advice on VEGAS), Kat (for the nag. hehek).. and the Faculty for letting me use the med surg room up to 7pm for two days! (the college usually closes at 5pm daily)

"If you think you can't do it.. Think again.. coz, for all you know it, it could only be sleeping inside you.. all you need is a little push...."
