For me, the reporters are all effective because I learned a lot from them. I know all the topics that they discussed will help me in future, most especially in making, producing and directing a film.
Since I was a little child I really like and I dreamed to become a scriptwriter and a director. I thought that in just a click of my hands I can direct, produce and make a wonderful script but sad to say I was wrong. After they discussed about those topic I realized that it’s not easy as I think. It would require dedication, patience, wild imagination, etc…
I really enjoy attending and listening to the reporters because all the topics are interesting, it helps me to prove the things that already know. Like for example, before in cinematography I didn’t aware that there’s a lot of camera shot, I thought that they only used 3 kinds of shot, which is the medium, close-up and long shot
I love watching movies. Before I watched movies as my pastime and for no reason, sometimes I watched it because of the actor who will go to portray the role. But after we discussed all topics I realized that I can learn and I can also get some techniques in making a film by just sitting in a front of the television and criticizing all the film that I’m going to watch.
I also learn that I need to view things in some ways. I can’t forget what my former professor said to me “Ang manunulat ay ipinapanganak at hindi ginagawa.” I loose my hope to become a good writer and director because I know I’m not born to become a writer and director. My own instinct pushes me to continue what I have started. But, after all the discussions, I discover that he was wrong… the writers could be made. It’s just like in acting everything can be learned; all we need is patience and the willingness.
I know and I prove that everything we discussed will help me a lot.
