EDITING PROGRESS 01/04/08

Well since Amit couldnt be bothered to update the blog since hes too busy practicin for his ECB coachin shanannagenz, i thought id do the honours and fill you in whats been going on lykkk.. well yday we had out hero Shiv make a suprise appearance at school to take some shots of him much 2 ajitpal's delight, him and amit were beh happy he came (haha), moving on, AMIT AND AJITPAL, filmed him 1st in the school studio in the F block (i never knew we even had a music block let alone a studio), rapping on the mic with the headsets on, when it came to capturing it, on the software, despite the fact me and Avi thinking this studio is profressionall, it just turned out to be a classroom wiv instruments so it didnt look good as there was school surroundingz that were being shown BUTTT, we did however manage to find some good decent shots in that scene which we have used so yeh that scene is done and dusted. the next scene which involved Shiv was a long shot of him kickin a paper ball and then picking it up and opening it and the camera closed in to the paper which was the rap battle leaflet so it creates a bit of narrative to the audience as they will be aware whats the main story to this film, there was also bit of dialoigue but i dont think we have used that part but we're still contemplating. Also today we took shots of out black artist (Lanzel - ARIESSSMANNNNNNN), saying a few words, filmed by Avinah and Amit, quite a few shots where taken such as close ups and side shots of Lanzel saying few lines of dialougue, we also go him punchin the screen towards the camera, this shot will relate to the scene where Shiv falls on to the floor, we already have captured that scene, but no idea wheather we will use what we have or re-film that. Also we sequenced everything in order of what we got so far, and added a soundtrack which goes well with the trailer, the 1st 15 seconds will have shots of our institutions and then when out beat kicks in, thats when our trailer kicks in.

at the moment our trailer is looking very good and we are all pleased, just a few little bits and bobs left to do, but we're happy with what we have produced so far and hope we continue with this hardwork. also id like to give a shoutout to the mentors who assist us, they have been very helpful , alot of advice given on their blog, especially from Athar despite the fact we both diss eachother lol but yeh Athar especially has been doing his job perfectly as well as all the other mentors (yes Nazia that includes you can stop crying now) they all have been doing their job well and thanx for the advice, help and contribution in some way.

but yeh thats all i gotta say now, ill be back more and yeh - C'MONNNNNNNNNNNNNNN BOYZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ BIG UP MR BABU
