This class turned out to be different than I expected. I was not really sure what to think going into an experimental class, but I knew I would like it more than documentary and narrative was full. In the end I had a lot of fun. I had a ton of technical difficulties though, especially with the first project with my film development. It was awful. I am very thankful for my support system. The people in this class are some of the best people I have ever met and I will definitely take another class taught by Andre. I learned a lot about myself as a filmmaker and about experimental films. I also learned that I am interested in checking out the Austin Film Society in case I want to head that way in the future instead of straight to California.
As I filmmaker, have learned that coming from my art background that experimental is a better fit for me over narrative. I like telling stories, but I can be more creative with experimental. I can do whatever I want physical artwork and I can now film that and edit it funky then book I got an experimental film. I am really excited to try this out in my free time.
Overall I am very grateful for this class and the experience I am walking out with. It also led me in the direction of visions and I cannot wait for that next semester!!
