Especially six hour long ones! At least we get an hour lunch break. -_-

The stranger thing is that there’s going to be this whole month and a half where we don’t have classes at all… we just meet up / work on a film project and some other thing called a photographic notebook for the second half of the semester… and then we just meet on the very last day of class and screen our films. O.o So that will be nice, I guess… when we get to that point and I don’t have to attend six hour sessions anymore…

The more annoying thing is that the last actual lecture day is Oct 11th, which is the same day as BlizzCon day two, so I won’t be able to go to that. To BlizzCon, I mean. ;_; Oh well. Though I could still go to the concert thing at night, if everyone wanted to go to that. Myeh.

At least it seems like an interesting class. It’s called “Visual Expression” and we really got slammed with information… but it’s all about the composition of shots and framing and stuff. Some of it was just common sense, but there was a lot of other theory that was totally new to me.

And horror of horrors, I actually TOOK NOTES. O_O Largely because … I dunno, I felt like it. And the lecturer’s speaking style really lent itself very well to notes. Plus he likes to draw on examples on the whiteboard and they’re amusing so I copied a number of them. :X And he’s a funny person in general… seems to know a lot of what he’s talking about. This is him on IMDB: Bruce A. Block. (remember the benefits of classes near Hollywood? XP )

So we learned about like… deepspace and flatspace and all the ways to get one or the other… and there’s ambiguous space and limited space… and and… yeah. TONS and tons and tons of terms. XP Hope the class stays interesting, cause six hours is really killer. ::lol::
