Girls don't hunt kangaroos.
Thank god. lol.
But class today was pretty silly. :) It started off a little rough, because it's Labor Day here in Western Australia. Which meant that no busses were running from our bus station. So after some little confusion we called Mary-Anne and she told us to train to Fremantle and then take the bus from there to campus. We finally made it, although we were a half hour late. But it was fiiine.
Today was another Media Frenzy, this time about TV. Sally and I walked into the studio and looked at each other sighing, "Ahh, home.." haha. We split up into two groups again, one group staying in that studio and another group, my group, going to another studio to learn about field shooting. After a brief introduction he told us we would be making our own two minute movie that we had to write, shoot, act in, and edit all in about two hours.
So it was me, Maria, Jenessa, and Loic in one group and our story was about Kangaroo hunting and crossdressing. LOL. Well here's the deal. In aboriginal culture, females aren't allowed to go on hunts because the think we're bad luck (LAME). And Glen, our teacher for the class on aborigines had told us so, and had agreed with the philosophy. So, in our video we first had Loic come out of the center wearing Glen's kangaroo hide and carrying a spear and then begin bragging about the kill he just went on. Then we got all excited that we wanted to try too, and ran to Glen's office. But once inside, he turned us down saying women we bad luck on a hunt. So, getting some bright ideas, we ran to the bathroom to put on moustaches and our hair in hats. A very clever and believable disguise, I might add (psyyyche) (lol, I said psyche). We returned to Glen's office and miraculously fooling him into thinking we were men, he allowed us to go. The movie ends with us hunting kangers in the bushland that is the side parking lot of Murdoch Uni. Hahahaha. It was great.
Unfortunately the sound did not come out.
Which ruined the great speech Glen gave, but luckily we were able to make it work anyways. Good thing the projects themselves aren't graded, only the effort is. Although I was quite embarrassed since this is my major and all. But ah well, no worries.
Alright, that's about all since last night. I'm trying to update more often so I don't fall behind and feel overwhelmed. Tomorrow we're switching groups for media frenzy and doing a studio production, then we have Wednesday off wootwoot.
Until next time,
<3
