Yesterday was one of the most important days of my life, maybe. I directed the class through two skits. The first time with real equipment and everything! I told them if they weren't quiet I would have their ass! It was fun although the actors were pretty bad that day so it wasn't as good as "the View" with the gay guys. I played with the lighting and came on set to move the stage. I said "Okay, Everybody off!" and then proceeded to shove the stage at an angle to get a better shot. I loved being in command. I don't remember ever being so open with strangers before. At first I was eying the headset and sort of blocking anyone else from being near it and the my instructor told me to check if the camera people were set up so I was like ,"Oh, why I ....me??? (grab at headset and too eagerly snap it on)" I'm gonna work with some other students from the class to film a poetry thing in the SUB tonight. I hope I get to do more this semester and in the summer. Maybe I can do an internship or work-study or something while I take classes. There's not enough time for me anymore. Too much to do.
