19th November- Post

This was one of our last sessions on editing our film. When I arrived I sat with Nathaniel while he finished up the music, meanwhile Armand was downstairs with Nuru finishing up the rotoscoping and the rest of the edit. 

After giving them advice about what we think, Iris and I went to the Raw Shorts event where we saw different clips from the R.S. Documentary as well as other media texts that certain people made in which we met at the Q and A. From this I learnt a lot about the way a film gets made with the fact that you have to go to speak to companies that will invest in you to make the film or documentary in this case.

After this, we were invited to the networking session with free drinks which is where I met Mandem on the wall and exchanged emails with him in order to have a possibility of working together in the future. My peer and I got a picture with him as well to lighten the mood.

I thought he was a very inspiring person as he knew exactly what he wanted in his career and he told us how he started his career. The fact he wants to be an actor and started by making his own stuff and staring in them to then getting professional acting jobs from that is such a cool story. I would love to follow in the same footsteps if my films became noticed.
