Film School

[bobchrisman]

any suggestions for film schools to apply to for people who aren't geniuses in math (D) and get a b average in everything else

[AshleyNReed]

lmao.

"Is it like an after school thing?"

I subscribed.

[Rutle]

"I'm expressing myself" lol

[roellwatchTV]

I LOVED the actor-meter part (:

[Malteboy777]

You're so cute when you dress up like that! ;D haha

[soj22]

hilarious. please talk like that more often

[DoubleDeeFilms]

i was laughing on the floor, that was so funny

i want to attend filmschool aswell in about 3 years ( when i finished high school)

[stickynoteblog]

Awesome! Good luck!

[DoubleDeeFilms]

thanks :)

[platinumpen11]

Art school is indeed amazing. Only downside is having people that aren't familiar with the major schools thinking that you're attending a fictitious college.

[notreallysoapy]

how hard is it to get into film school? does it like depend on what film school?

[stickynoteblog]

Generally speaking, better programs are harder to get into. You have to be able to demonstrate your creativity and prove that film is where your passion lies.

[notreallysoapy]

ok thanks for the advice!! =]

[fugue10]

Love your videos!

I can relate to the part about your family not acknowledging film as a real degree. I once spent a half hour explaining the classes I take as music major to my cousin. She responded by saying, "Well, good luck in that one class you were telling me about. Was it music...?"

...Awesome.

[swift55555]

1) I had to watch this so that you didn't have 666 views (AHHH!!!)

2) I love your mom (Sarah Palin much?)

[JaceOfSpades65]

[xxMissKatrinaxx]

[shaeenuhh]

[Cleanuponaisle11]

Have fun with your classes... And yes... Talk like that more often. ^_^

[Plomomedia]

[ipodgirl93]

I'm in a film program at my art school, this was funny, you're a good, film maker, and film students do dress crazy occasionally.

[XochilM]

Yep you are the greatest!

[JaceOfSpades65]

[EsmereldaAndKyle]

[JamesMorlan]

Is that like an after-school thing? LOL

[kxllu]

I'm glad you've posted a new video!

[ElmTheWar]

[stickynoteblog]

I... don't know if that was intended to be a compliment or an insult...

[patchina]

[everydayuncommon]

I liked this

[stickynoteblog]

I like you.

[jazzyj890]

Well, this is the first vid of yurs I have seen since the Christmas sweater one.

I gotta say... it doesn't speak to me.

[jimmyrabbitte]

Film students, current and former, unite! It's utterly true how the light meter turns you into some kind of master technician. Hell, I'm mostly in editing and continuity, and I still carry around the Kodak Field Guide. It makes me feel smarter, like I'm in on a great artistic secret.

I never had the problem with my family, but I did have the "get a real major" comment from some friends. Joke's on them! My degree is ten times more useful in the real world than their business management one!

[stickynoteblog]

Oh snap! Pshh. Business management.

[Castaa]

lol Nice.

Have you taken the class that teaches you to convert & upload video at the correct aspect ratio? jk :D

[stickynoteblog]

Don't blame me. Blame JVC.

[Castaa]

It's because most DV camcorders record at 720x480 because standard definition televisions not display the each pixel as a square. You need to crop 40 pixels on the right and left edge giving you a desired 4:3 aspect ratio of 640x480. Or "letter box" the original source video in a 640x480 video format. What video editor are you using?

[paspossible16]

your hair looks absolutley beautiful!

did u just get it cut?

:)

[MagicalFoldingCanoe]

HA! "omg..did you hear her?...michael angelo sucks..."

[SteveDutzy]

We just learned how to use those light meters today.

This video is sooo true. Especially the part about the family not taking a film degree seriously, hahaa.

[stickynoteblog]

Analog light meters FTW!

And about your family... tough it out. It will be worth it.

[greenhousegirl]

hmmm.... can you post the videos you make for class? I'm sure we'd love to see them... ;)

but that's only if you want to of course! :)

[stickynoteblog]

That's a cool idea.

Only trouble is, almost all my videos from this year are on film. Like, FILM film. So unless I pay to transfer them to digital, I won't be able to put them on YouTube.

I'll see what I can do, though. Thanks for the suggestion!

[greenhousegirl]

awe.... that stinks.... :(

I hope you can get them up here, but don't waste a bunch of money....

;) your welcome!

[maclover246]

ok so i get the same thing for music....they believe that because were arts...we get every art....and if someone tries to sing and i want them to stop i just go "wow your sharp" and they believe me and stop....they power of arts :D

[stickynoteblog]

ART POWER!

[WardereWardere]

Hahahahaha! Tell me about it.

When I first bought my camera, my mother thought I was shooting porn. :P

Awesome video! Good luck in school
