Final major projects are done!

A couple of days ago I finally handed in my final major projects. it was a massive push right up to the last few minutes of the hand in window and I don't mind saying, a stressful experience.

I have been very fortunate to have worked with some very gifted people on the two projects I have been involved with for this module. looking back over the last 5 weeks I think we have done incredibly well and produced to very different but engaging documentaries.

As a director on this course you have to be a bit of a 'jack of all trades'  filling the gaps on shoots and within the edit because you work in small teams and as the director the ultimate responsibility to bring the documentary home relies on you. For the BMX documentary "Living the dream" I was the director, sound engineer and dubbing mixer and found it hard to juggle all the roles and find time to do dissertation and production paperwork. Its a learning curve though and overall I am very happy with the outcome and look forward to hearing the feedback from the contributors.

All thats left is to write my dissertation then my Masters is over, its amazing to think that in a few weeks time I will be handing in my dissertation and thats it! It only seems like yesterday that we were all working in small groups producing little one minute films week by week - how time flies........
