What I thought of the finished product...

the newspaper was a great idea, i believe it had real, true potential and we could've produced something great. however, instead of making our final FILM project, this is what was chosen to be done instead - this was very upsetting for me. I really wished that i could finish this course with a production left solely to me, unbound by brief, showing off all my creativity - I'd have used it alongside my marks and other films from the course to present as a sort of showreel. now i cant. i have to somehow impress whoever/wherever i aim to work with a newspaper - a pretty shoddy looking one too, showing off absolutely zero film making skill  (which is all i wanted to do in future) and only a minimal knowledge of layout creation - the layout was composed on pages with no default settings (an "autoshape" job).
I'd had sooo many ideas over the past 2 years of this course drafted up and blogged about for a final film production which i'd been hyping over the whole time and now it isn't happening - the only films i have to show are group productions without much personal input, or, unfinished ones.

Still. The stuff we covered wasn't bad. We all knew what we were talking about. Maybe we'll have a chance at getting a job in the local newspaper.
