Crits: A Necessary Evil




The day's rundown:

10:00 AM- Lecutre on semiotics and etymology in the upper casket with Frank

12:30 PM- tea break

1:00 PM- Critique with keiron and the rest of the Peckham team in A206

2:30 PM- tea break

5:30 PM- dismissed from Critique

6:45 PM- arrive at Bhav's place in Greenwich

7:15 PM- heartily consume dinner (soup) and snacks

7:30 PM- commence the final editing

11:30 PM- run down the streets of Greenwich with Emma trying to catch the train to London Bridge

12:15 AM- back in the dorms, switch on Misfits.

A very long day indeed. It's 2 AM now. Misfits was awesome!
But yes, Crits are long, and hard (that's what she said!) but a necessary evil. Although there was a lot of tension in the room at some points, there was a lot of good feedback.

We wondered whether or not it was a good idea to show everyone our films ahead of time. Would this make the final screening at the Peckham Multiplex boring? I hope not! I think that there are a lot of groups (including my own) that needed some work, editing, and general finesse.

Plus, a couple of drinks beforehand makes any screening better. Looking forward to an after party puts a nice light on the whole event, too.
