Creative Writing Club 10/22/09

Today was my first actual meeting, and I submitted my chapter 1 of the novel I've been working on. IT was pretty nerve wrecking to show it to 8 complete strangers but I still did and they gave me a critique which really did help, so i am going to revise chapters 1-4 and may resubmit chapter 1 again or send in 2. I also intend to submit this by Dec 1st to miss Fenney for the Sturgian.

Today we decided what movies we would watch from here up till Jan. They consists of horror, comedy and old films since we will be basing our movies off of this, we also watched "The Twilight Zone" which was to help us get a feel of 1960s type things. We decided to film a movie in the school about a not to distant future it will be a horror film based off of the 1980s Biosphere, which I will begin to write the script on.

Film Club 10/02/09

This week we watched the movie's Poltergeist and Dracula and saw different techniques by the directors and saw really how far horror movies have come in such a short time. Dracula was directed and produced very well for its time periods it gave us ideas for when we decided to make movies.

Citizen Energy Fundraiser 9/29/09

Today I went out and bought donuts from a local donuts shop and with the help of my advisory we sold them and other snacks we our now up to 90 dollars in less than two weeks. This shows 2 things.
1) That I do have these skills but am still not ready to admit I have reach my LOG's.
2) Now that i have awareness of these skills I want to make atleast 500 dollars before the beginning of 2010, this is my new goal by using the same LOGs to make over 500 dollars I am almost up to 100 I know I can. I am really seeing that with my motivation I was able to get other people more motivated because this is truly a global importance and I know 500 dollars once fix poverty but its a start.

Film Club 9/18/09

Today in film club we watched the movie Plan 9 from Outer Space by Edward D. Wood Jr. which is a low budget horror movie from the late 1950s which we compared how movie making and especial horror movies have increased from the 1950 to the late 70s when Halloween was made. We've come to respect and listen each others so far.
