About Me

I made this blog to keep track of my work or things related to my work at VFS. I might also post things that aren't related to film school. Deal with it.

Compendium III

I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to help out on the set of Compendium III- "Steampunk Neverland- Forever." Every few months the Entertainment Business Management program puts together a school wide collaboration that only top students are able to help out on.
























This time around was Steampunk Neverland, 5 high-end special FX short films (5 minutes) that will be distrubuted for the iPad. Each film was directed by a different director.



























Because I was only in Foundations I was only able to be a production assistant, most of the time I just felt I was in the way as I ran around doing any odd jobs they needed me to do. For the most part I stood around not wanting to intrude and just watched how the set worked and how each director did his job differently. I also met a lot of cool people that I will definitely be keeping in contact with and hopefully working with them in the future.





































I was on set for three days including the load in day, the last day I was on set I was part of the art team and did some set decoration, I learned basic aging techniques to make fake metal look old and rusted. What I learned was just the bare bone basics but I have always been interested in art direction and I plan on doing some next year, so I'll take whatever experience I can.












































Overall it was a great learning experience and I did learn quite a few things that I never would have learned in Foundations.
