WERE STARTING
Today I find myself deeply wondering about how it is I want to approach this project. There are many things I have to complete and ponder about. I've never quite done anything like this, but I find it comforting that there aren't many restrictions. When I heard that we were only a few days from starting this portfolio, I felt overly nervous but somewhat excited for the ending results. I realize that this requires a great amount of effort and commitment. I feel as if I'm forcing myself to be determined, since I want this to turn out as extraordinary as possible. Despite the elongated process this will take, I am prepared to take on everything that will have to be done. What is most puzzling at the moment are the ongoing options of which genre to choose. I enjoy many different types of films... but which one will be just right? Well, I guess we'll see sooner than you think. From now, I present my upcoming successes and failures, my intrusive thoughts, but most importantly, the growth I develop from now until what feels like forever.
I find it difficult for me to find the first step. Being able to have "freedom" with this project, somehow feels very narrow to me, but it's not. It sounds simple, though a lot of thoughts come with this. Lots of change, moods, and processes. Some may feel like they just want to get this over with, but personally, I feel devoted to learning from this process. Learning things about myself even.
Character or conflict is the approach I wish to use. I'm most interested in these techniques, so I'm confident I'll choose one of them. Character development is a fascinating topic that can be approached in a variety of ways, which is why I find it so interesting. Conflict interests me because it elicits a wide range of feelings and responses in the audience, effectively drawing them into a quality play.
My goal for this weekend is to research a LOT, explore the different ideas and strategies, and brainstorm what genre peaks my interest the most.
