Oh, I’ve lost count, the days flow in eachother, I can’t seem to seperate what happened today, yesterday and the day before. The day started early again, editing, editing and did I mention editing? At 12 o’clock we started to prepare for the Big Talkshow, rushing to get there and set up. In the end the show was cancelled. Not feeling to go back to edit after 2 days, or even more, 16 hour editing sessions, we wanted to film something short, snappy and interesting. We wandered around the area where we had set up for the Big Talkshow. At the Cinemart desk area we met someone who was working there, we asked her to introduce us to some directors we could interview. And we succeeded! She really helped us out, we had around 6 interviews with several directors. They were really nice and friendly. After each interview we kept talking and those conversations were so nice, I wish we could have filmed that! They gave us really nice and good tips. It was educational and inspiring. Basically, everyone said ‘ just make your movie, even if you don’t have a budget or time, just try to do it with the means you have. And you should develop you own style, watch a lot of movies and then leave their style and create your own. And do it from the heart, show what is near to you and means a lot to you. That’s what filmmaking is. And don’t forget to have fun!
