when u just up scheduling #yup #film

 There is an ancient Chinese proverb that says, "Zach London must go on a whatsapp call at 5:42 PM on a Friday to make a schedule for his project." And whoever said that is stupid, because Zach London went on call at 6:42 PM. Do better, China.


me n gang on da call
 
We decided on a strategy for the schedule, splitting up the workload into 2's. 2 weeks Pre-Production, 2 weeks production, 2 weeks post-production. No one's ever thought of this before. We want to have a good idea of what we're doing before we all leave for STN, so we can hit the metaphorical ground running once we get back. We want to start filming by the second week of March, which will also free up Spring Break for us to do any filming we would need during the week. By the end of March, we should be fully editing the film, finishing it up by the first week of April. 

You can now bet on whether we finish this project on time on Kalshi, Polymarket, Hard Rock Bet, or wherever you dabble in a little degeneracy! I'd take the under; we seem to be pretty locked.

something something start of a new beginning

 IT MAY NOT MEAN NOTHING TO YALLLL

BUT UNDERSTAND NOTHING WAS DONE FOR MEEEE

ok i make a film



We're starting our portfolio project for A-level, and our doc group is running it back. Expect the lock in of a lifetime at Panera again. Unsurprisingly, the team decided on the short film option for the project. I'm actually very excited about the prospects of this film. As Seniors in our second semester, we're kind of already on our way out, with this project serving as our last hoorah. I want to put everything I have in this film, and, hopefully, the effort shows. 

Sorry to get a bit serious, ya boy has to get a grade.

We threw some ideas around about what we want the film to be about. We went through vampires, high school drama, and love stories. Really, the whole 9 yards. But we decided to maybe perhaps kind of sort of do a more meta film. Quinn's dying love for the show "Fleabag" may influence this film more than I'd expect, and now I have to watch the show. 

Wait shes British like you Cambridge
We're nowhere close to settling on an idea, and because we all leave for the Student Television Network
 Convention in a week, we probably won't be until after. But, enough of this scheduling talk, let's leave that for the next post. 


How it feels to make art with your 
friends AGAIN
