Doorknob Weekend Recap and Important Realization
Hey All,
So this weekend seems to have been a big weekend for everyone, shooting their doorknobs. Our group, (Alyssa, Matt, and I) did really well overall with our shoots. Saturday we really lucked out with the weather in the afternoon and got one out of our two outdoor scenes completed. Today we shot the opening and ending scenes, which was actually really good because of the weather.
We did run into a small glitch though concerning audio for one scene. For some reason our mic wasn't working in the beginning, we caught it right away thankfully, and were able to fix it. This does bring up a really important point. A lot of the xlrs from ppecks don't seem to work or are bad. There is a way to check this though BEFORE leaving ppecks. They have an xlr tester on the desk by the center computer, and its actually a really good idea to check the cables this way so that when your on set and ready to start shooting you don't realize that the cable is bad and you won't have any audio.

Reliving Childhood
So i was hanging out with a few friends this afternoon, and we decided to watch some old nick shows. The first show we watched was Rugrats. Re-watching them i realized that each episodes theme revolves around some aspect of society, such as the criminal justice system, the hidden identity of celebrities/icons, and even potent historical facts. Rugrats was not the only show that we ended up watching though. Afterwords we also watched a few episodes of Rocco's Modern Life. Until now, I never realized what actually slid into the show that young children would never understand, such as Cougar-ism, cheating on one's spouse, and so on. I suggest going back and watching some of the old cartoons that we watched as kids to see what they are actually saying. A few shows are on netfix instant watch. The title links to the cite.
