October 19th, 2005: This first project is a bit weird, because we don't seem to be doing much. *shrug* I feel a bit guilty, but I'm not alone, so I'm not entirely the only one to blame. Phil makes a lot of last minute cancellations, but at least we have the thing filmed in case everything else goes wrong. I don't mean anything bad by saying that, I like Phil, he's fun.

October 28th, 2005: We are actually done! I only have the written part undone. Phil agreed to do the sleeve for the video. So now I only have to battle with the production diary, and we're officially done! I'm so happy. I'm actually semi happy with how the film turned out. Oh well, we'll see what the tutors think on Tuesday.

October 31st, 2005: Everything is done. Hand in at 2PM, just in case that we won't miss the deadline and fail. Am meeting Phil for a last check up at 1PM. Must remember to rewind the tape to the right place.

November 10th, 2005: I got the mark back today, and I got a 58% (a 2.2). I'm happy enough, but of course I'd have wanted a better mark. I understand the reasoning behind it, though, so I'm not very upset.
