A Documentary, and other news

Thursday · 19 Sep 02 · 01:12 AM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: General

The last two days at college have been pretty busy.  The college management has decided to film a documentary that will be, as I understand, about 6 or 7 minutes long, intended to promote our college.  They have hired a professional advertising agency to actually shoot the video.  Recently they have been doing a bit of sprucing up in the college, and they've even identified a few students who will speak in the video.

Now I was sort of uninvolved in all of this until yesterday (the 17th).  As part of the video, the college also wanted to highlight the fact that there are student chapters of several technical organisations in the college (the IEEE - the most active one which I'm proud to be part of, ISTE, CSI and IIF - which I didn't know existed until yesterday), and they wanted this to be in the video as well.  So myself and a group of friends (all of us IEEE members) came up with a sort of script, describing what we're going to show.  Basically we're going to simulate an actual session of these organisations, but we're only going to show glimpses of what goes on.  Tomorrow is the "rehearsal" shoot, which will be followed by the actual shoot on 24th.

Personally, I don't know how much of what we are going to do will actually end up in the final film, and I also don't know what the agency expects from us, but at any rate I think it's going to be fun doing something in front of a camera and I'm going to enjoy myself.

I couldn't watch Star Trek: Voyager today because there was a powercut at night.  There will probably be two episode reviews tomorrow because of this.  And thanks Srikanth for giving me a CD full of music videos recorded from TV (on his computer).  I copied a few of those that I liked yesterday.
