Today I was told that I am now taking the hardest class of my college career. No, it's not a physics class, an engineering class, or even a math class! It's a FILM class.

Hardest Class of My Life

Reflections of a Filmmaker: Two Days
Sometimes when I consider the viability of a future career, I ask myself whether or not I could do it all day, every day. For years. And there really is no way to answer that question. Unless I DO do it all day, for multiple days in a row. That's how the past two days have been for me.
Yesterday I spent a long time researching, brainstorming, editing, and acquiring resources for a video project. Almost nine hours. Nine hours in front of two computers, on my feet for at least half of it. Just going, going, going. And I enjoyed myself. I did not get sidetracked by facebook or comics or YouTube. Any breaks I had were short and infrequent. I clocked almost nine hours of well-spent time. Then after dinner, I jumped into preparing for the second of two video projects for this past afternoon. I compiled a packing list, made phone calls, secured permission to borrow things, assembled props, costumes, and various BTS resources, and constructed a very ad hoc piece of equipment to help capture a tricky shot. Feeling I had things well in hand, I lay me down to sleep.
More after the jump.

My Film: Test The Spirits
Greetings, dear friends,
Last Wednesday, my brother and I threw together a little illustration video for my dad's sermon this past Sunday. The source Bible passage for the sermon is found in 1 John 4. I selected the first three verses as the material for our video.
For more information about our church, you can visit kirtlandchristian.org.
Enjoy!
