I've been finding it incredibly difficult to write these blogs. I'll open up a blank page to type something up, but then a million things just run through my head all at once, so I just can't focus at all.
What's more important to think about? What can I just skim over? Can I skim over what I see as uninteresting?
But it's good to at least try to start somewhere. It can be daunting if you let it, but it can also be therapeutic if you just let the thoughts flow. However, on that note, it's definitely no good to write when you're angry, frustrated, or under so much stress that you want to cry as a result out of a chicken and egg situation (I love this metaphor).
I'm here to talk about my documentary process, my progress; the subject itself, as well as documentary making in general. Another aspect that's hard is that I've been keeping a little production folder, adding to it from the start and as we went along so a lot of the time, it just seems redundant and a major waste of energy to just type it all up again when it's right there already, you know?
Every time I look at this, I feel that little bit more stressed. Maybe I should have opted for a different subject choice, or a different partner, or who knows what else. Speaking of such, it makes me think of the phrase 'team effort'.
Do you see an 'I' in there? I most certainly don't. I mean, there is an anagram of the word 'me', but you need to take energy to remove the two other letters that aren't needed, so to speak, then put the letters to make 'me' in order. The unneeded letters, I reckon, are 'willingness' and 'helpfulness'. Willingness to be helpful to your crew.
Yup. Though, I was fortunate to have an additional team mate who actually was trying to be willing and did try to be helpful, so I'm really appreciative of that.
Yikes. I'll stop there before I get annoyed again and don't want to write anymore. Either way, this got me in the mood for writing, so hooray!
