Busy time of the semester

It's just today that I realized - I still didn't post anything about the critique day of our trailers. I worked so hard to get it done, and it came out not bad but not exactly what I or everybody else in class expected. I got some comments on included pictures in the trailer which didn't make much sense. I kind of agree with that but not completely. I think that pictures probably would look better if I found more picture where my bunny is "really bad" (since my soundtrack for the movie is Michael Jackson's "I'm bad"). I also screwed up my lighting and my camera work...And I actually knew that the lighting throughout the trailer was not good because it was dark and jumped around at some point but I was so excited to be done with my first creation in Final Cut that I didn't even notice any issues with the video itself.
Anyway, I went to the TV center last week to ask for the professional camera, nice microfone and a set of lighting. I'm planning to shoot this weekend if I get approval for all of the equipment. I have several ideas how to make my bunny look "really bad" in the movie, however, I still cannot decide which one to pick. I know that is not good, I was supposed to come up with the script long time ago, but I feel like it's in my head. As soon as I start writing it down on a paper, I'm going to get stuck and won't be able to write anything....
Soon we are going to make our posters. It is exciting but even more stressful to me, because I don't think that Photoshop is my kind of program. As much as I love Final Cut Pro, as much as I want to create things with it, Photoshop is not that easy and not that exciting....Well, keep working!!!
