videos

So yesterday I recorded one of the videos that I will be including into my video.
Stan Walker's song "little black box".
There was literally 15 takes because I was struggling trying to find the right key to put the song in.
My friend who was recording suggested for me to do certain parts in the song and at the end when i'm putting the video together I can just combine the little clips together.

Right now i'm focusing on the questions that i will be asking the public next week in the city! =)

interview questions

so this weekend or next weekend, I plan on going to the city with Tahlia and getting her to film me asking people about their religion. I have made a couple of interview questions in this double lesson and have also discovered a book that I could use in my project. Its about a girl that changed from a muslim religion into Christianity.
It's called "i dared to call him father".

Term 3- the beginning of a lot of stress

so, yesterday basically Mrs Naroba gathered the class for one whole lesson explaining that bibliography was one of the most significant things to worry about in RP.
She gave out a sheet that had an example of another students work. Apparently SACE marked this person down just because of their bibliography and some of the titles that were accidentally put in the wrong area. There was also another dillema where this student was using informal language.

This lesson i focused on my bibliography and starting to practice the songs that are going to be played in my movie doc.
I plan to have a few testimonies in the film, with my voice speaking too and my singing of some of Stan Walker's songs. =)
MUST FOCUS ON THE FORM AND SOUND OF THE SONGS FIRST THOUGH!
taking into consideration:
-the dynamics
-the form
-rhythm

i found another site that has Stan Walkers testimony =)
i think that this site has been a bit more helpful than the other websites I've checked.

it has the story of his childhood in detail... here's a little bit of it...

'My mum got her last beating from my dad and went to church,' he says. 'She'd had enough and she refused to go back. Dad went to church to get Mum back, and his life changed. He's gone from a "Jake the Mus" to the most amazing, gentle and loving man who anybody would want as a father. My mum's now a strong, confident woman.'...

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11).

update on the 2nd week!

Last week, I DID highlight all the important stuff from the stories and basically took out parts that I will using to present in my assignment. I've actually thought thoroughly my survey questions for whoever I will be interviewing and yeahhh i'm pretty psyched about meeting these new people. =)

I will be giving some sample of my questions soon! i just have to finalise them!
