Hey!:) I am studying film (which on a sidenote, i'm really excited about hehe) for the first time this April, and I was just wondering if there's anything that I have to take note of, being a freshie in film studies? Also, just out of curiosity, are there written assignments or requirements to take notes for this subject? Thankyou and all the best in your studies!! :D

Hello! Congratulations on going to study film! It’s so much fun!

I’m about to graduate so it’s been a while since I was a freshie but my general advice is;

Learn from others. You will never always have the answers, utilise your teams abilities to their full potential on set.

Go to film festivalsGreat way of meeting people and expanding your horizons as a filmmaker.

Try all the rolesYou wanna be a director? Cool. But it’s not the only role available even if it is the most recognised. Try everything and you may surprise yourself.

Keep up to dateKnow which films are nominated for the Oscars/BAFTAs, know the differences in the Premiere Pro updates - it just makes things less awkward when you are asked questions.

Go crazyFilmmakers are crazy people with even crazier ideas. Just try them out, experimenting is just a day-to-day part of art.

Watch films!Go to the cinema, watch the classics, watch experimental/avant-garde films. Just remember what made you want to make films in the first place.

Making films is one of the most rewarding things you can do as an artist (yes we are called artists out in the world!). As far as the written assignments go it really does depend on where you are studying. For me, I got to art school, so I do around 20% written work ( 2x 2000 word essays in year 1, 2x2500 words in year 2 and 1x8,000 dissertation in year 3). But my course is very practical based and theory is put into practice rather than written about so it can vary

Hope this helps!

My new phone takes better quality photos but tumblr makes them look so blurred, click on it to see it better if you’re on mobile.

hi, i'm just starting a studyblr (going back to school tomorrow and need motivation) and i was wondering if you have any tips for taking photos? yours are just so nice all the time.

Hi! Thank you so much, that’s a big compliment!!

Okay, a few tips:

- get a good lighting!!! - natural is the best but I’ve taken a few pics with a lamp and it worked okay. All of these pictures were taken at night under the light of several lamps :D  (still, natural light is better :D) you just need to edit it heavily and set the light properly - basically there’s more work with it and it does not always work out

- take several pictures from different angels - I usually take about 10-15 pics of the same spread with different props and angles and choose the best one afterwards!

- EDITING - this makes my pics ten times better. When I edit the pics for my instagram (and then usually post them here) I use the Snapseed app to lighten it up and then do some finishing touches in the insta app. Snapseed is good because it has these exposure&saturation brushes that are just GOLD because you can lighten just a certain part of the picture, maybe an annoying shadow or sth.

Here’s an example of my photos before and after editing:

I edit them quite heavily hehe :D esp. when there’s white background

This one was taken during a gloomy day and there’s this noise that I can’t get rid of - see, good lighting is vital :’)

Got another answer from one of the unis I applied for, was super productive and the bangtan teasers came out too. It’s been a great couple of days, honestly xx

I promised myself that I’d start working out at the beginning of 2017 and I’m starting to see some improvements!! I can actually see my abs now and I can do more than 15 pushups ( i’m super weak, couldn’t even do one before I started) . I’ll write a post with some tips & the workouts I do if you guys are interested 💪🏻
