At a Glance:
Stopping production.
Focusing on personal work instead.
Not particularly motivated, but working on finding productive tasks.
Statement:
The latest advice from UAL suggests that the FMP will not be marked. I understand this, and I'm relatively happy with the standards of my previous projects. With this in mind, I would like to stop production. There is a possibility that I will continue to create assets, such as posters and digital work, however I do not believe it will be beneficial to continue filming for a project which has ultimately become tainted, and I have lost the motivation for. This is indeed unfortunate considering the amount of pre-planning leading up to this, however it is now my ambition to focus my motivation into personal work, aiming for a result I'll ultimately be happier with.
What was I doing?
As mentioned above, I haven't completed any project related work. However I've instead passed the time by gathering and editing footage for a quick factual piece about my dad doing deliveries during this time. I used the equipment available to me to record audio and interview visuals while gathering handheld footage travelling in the car. Unfortunately, aside from this I have not completed anything else.
How was I feeling?
I do feel a little downtrodden that throughout all the last few weeks I have been committed to continuing with filming, but have ultimately decided against it. I'd like to think that I have made the right decision, as I believe that I would feel worse continuing with a project that I progressively became unhappy with.
What were the pros and cons?
I believe that it's good that I have completed some video work, albeit a very short and uncomplicated piece. The most obvious con would be the lack of college related work. However I am not too concerned about this, as I explained in my above statement.
What's next?
My current plan is very unclear. I aim to continue these updates for as long as appropriate, providing insights into the kind of work I have completed during the week, college related or not.
This will be the last schedule showing the planned activities, since production will not be continuing.
