The documentary I’m working on for my third semester production class at USC is called Polar Opposites.  Here’s the logline:

Polar Opposites is a USC documentary film that attempts to investigate the pole dancing trend and why women are flocking to the pole in droves.

Here’s the pitch video for the documentary project.  This is what Caitlin, the director of this project, showed potential crew members, teachers and administrators as she was pitching the project for consideration as a Production 3 documentary film to be produced and funded by USC.

I’m going to be editing the project along with Erika Edgerley.  The director and producers are planning a whole web presence for the project, which includes a facebook page, a tumblr account, a twitter account and a YouTube presence that reveals news and informaton pertaining to the creation of this documentary.

Take a look around:

Originally this picture was a green card.  I replaced the green card in After Effects CS3 with a pre-production picture from Butterscotch.  The video after the picture is the beginning of Lullaby of Birdland.

This is only an 8 second clip that ends abruptly.  FYI.

Screened the latest cut of Project 2, currently titled “Parting Ways.” Thinking that i may change the name soon to “Distant Lover.” Still have a lot of work to do — I haven’t finished the After Effects work and there are still some story issues that I need to iron out. I really like receiving feedback and criticism. Always nerve-racking beforehand, but afterwards I always have a lot of new ideas to work with.

Back to editing. The screenshot above is from the latest film.

What’s next: Update Project 2 and begin working on my screenplay for next semester.
