Nothing can bring me down from this high! Well except for a long list of things, but you know what I mean.
I'm really pleased with the way my story is going and the fact that I can manage time to write. It makes me a very happy Panda.
So to celebrate Wednesday night I did something I had never done before. After like an hour of looking up ways to make a video, I decided to try to give it a go. Using Windows Live Movie Maker, nothing too exciting or extreme. So I started tinkering with things here and there.
And then when I was going to make it I realized I had to figure out exactly what kind of people I imagined my characters would be. More importantly what actors/actresses I would use.
So that took some thinking and more time (at this point HW was completely forgotten). So I narrowed it down and decided I would try making character trailers. So I choose two of my characters and made a trailer for them. It took a lot of work, and it's not perfect at all. And I didn't even really make it, I just took scenes and mashed them together. And added music to it and called it an accomplishment.
After I was done I stashed it deep within my laptop's memory. It will probably never see the light of day, but I can say I made a character trailer and I'll feel accomplished no matter what. I'll probably watch it from time to time. To inspire me.
And one thing I noticed afterwards was how exhausting it is. I applaud the people that make videos. Never again will I underestimate it. And I didn't even do a lot of work. But I was exhausted. I was happy, and pleased and ready for bed.
Side Note: As mentioned in one of my previous posts, I love the song She Will Be Loved and that is the song I used. I'm a very happy Mexican. :)
