I am experiencing after day 4 of Filmlab what can only be described as ‘Lablag’. As the workshop starts on a saturday and goes to wednesday 11am-7pm, I am finding myself up late every night. It’s quite a strange feeling really but last night it was bitter sweet as I had a wave of inspiration for our filmlab project/process and couldn’t sleep until 2pm. And it’s 1am now and I just polished off a banana muesli bar and a glass of milk and am feeling wide awake… here we go again.
The exercises have all been interesting. Some have deffinitely reminded me of being in drama school again too. Loving the singing in the morning with Paddy on keys. Painting has also been quite liberating and calming.
We have our presentations tomorrow for our projects and while I am not going to give our simple idea away, I will say there will be no talking what so ever. I’m looking forward to finding the nervous system of what makes my ideas tick and what will make the perfect low budget animated film.

Today’s warmup exercises weren’t so bad. Any exercise where you don’t have to act out an infanticide is generally ok

Yes, this time there were grandmothers, carrots and erm…. other “bits”.
