On being directed

Being directed is often a good thing. It helps you achieve the tasks you are meant to achieve within a certain amount of time. Other times it helps you learn something useful. In occasional cases, though direction is one of the most frustrating things in the world. I have spent many hours standing over the past three days being directed by someone who had not taken enough time with multicamera directing theory books or taken the time to familiarise himself with the theoretical aspect.

Two days of production later

It’s the final day of production today, we have three acts to film and two links as well. We’ll have someone going through a guillotine and another act of which I am not sure yet. it should start from 0900 until 1700 this evening. Yesterday was fine but it felt that a lot of time was wasted for a variety of reasons, leaving me a little dissatisfied.
