This post is going to be short because I have to go and write some script coverage but I really wanted to share the tidbits of funny that have happened recently. First of all, yesterday I was going to walk to the Center with my roomie but she had to get over there early so I had no one to walk with. Well, unless I wanted to scan down the ultimate contact information list for all of my fellow program participants and call or text someone from my class about walking over, that would be creepy at all.
During class today we went over 3 act story structure and in order for the class to better understand it, the prof had to use movie examples. The only issue with that is that he always said *spoiler alert* right after he said a plot-turning point in a movie. I didn't mind so much but I guess one girl won't be watching Pulp Fiction anymore, though in my opinion he just saved a piece of her soul.
Towards the end of our super long class the prof said this, "Now, I know I may not look it, but I LOVE Mandy Moore movies." "A Walk to Remember?" said a student. "Oh man, that is my favorite one, Niagara Falls everytime, man." It made me laugh.
Then I got to enjoy a Buster Keaton film, and some finishing touches of organization on my room. Ah, so now I'll go and do my script coverage, though I have to say that this system doesn't make sense. Even if you're going to tell the Studio it'd be best to Pass on a script, you still have to write a mini-book report(coverage) for it, even though it's going straight in the trash. I wonder how much time could be saved by just having a form to fill out for "Pass" scripts. Maybe enough time to cure cancer, especially if it was combined with all the time per year people lose by watching Citizen Kane.
