Today in class Tstok told us she was going to be calling us back and telling us if we had any problems with our blogs, and that if we had any questions to ask her. I was ready to ask for insight on the dilemma I was facing with selecting the film for my opening, and then the PA system came on and said we were going to have a precautionary lockdown. We all had to move to the corner, turn the lights off, and we weren’t allowed to speak. We all worked on our blogs, but I couldn’t because I was still having this dilemma. I literally emailed Stok about what was going on in hopes that she’d be able to help me figure it out.
The email from class.
After a bathroom escort, and a relaxed feeling shared throughout the school, we began to work again. Stok said she’d be calling people to talk about their blogs, but I made sure to get my questions in before she went to her desk. I explained what was going on in more detail, and she definitely liked the rock idea more. We both agreed that it would be more extravagant, and her plan to combat the extravagance was to make it about a past-rocker, or a washed up rockstar instead. She explained that the biggest issues I’d face would be the set, and that the accuracies of a pre-show concert may be hard to attain.
I hit her with one of these, and she definitely understood that I was stuck to my idea. I explained how I could do my idea at the civic center, and explained my planned shots. She liked it and thought that it could be cool. I still explained how there was a chance that I couldn’t go through with this, and that I was worried I’d fall short of what I wanted to accomplish. Still, she liked the rock idea and wanted to see me do what I’d wanted to. “This is supposed to be fun, have fun with it.” So that’s it, it’s official, I know what I want for my opening.
