Love me tender, Matthew Sweet / Never Kurtis Blow.*
I know I haven't written in this thing in a while, and I am sorry. There hasn't been a shitload of interesting stuff to talk about. All my classes now are finals, which mostly consist of your average performance-based stuff (which I have trouble remembering) or writing stuff down, but at any rate, at this point it's less about learning new and interesting things than it's about showing that I have learned the things in question. Coming up is a News final and I have to write some stories for that. It's tomorrow, so possibly I should get on the stick.
Meanwhile, I have a production final coming up, and I did it but then realized I kind of fucked up so I am going to go into the studio on Saturday and re-record the voice-over part of it. Once that's done, I'll burn it to CD and there should be mp3s of it to listen to, if you're interested, shortly after. If nothing else I am proud of what I'd already done with it -- the spot has to be sixty seconds, and I fucked up a lot while recording it and eventually just broke down laughing for no good reason. So it wound up being this three-minute monstrosity which I cut down to sixty seconds and it sounds pretty seamless. The only downside is it came out a little too short, and that's why it needs to be re-recorded. While goofing around, though, I also recorded an example of how not to make a spot, and I'll try to have that available to listen to as well.
And now to write news. On the whole I am very happy I decided to go to this school. I suspect good things will happen. Or they won't, you know, whatever.
