We are assigned to present the culture of the hispanics, their historical highlights, health beliefs, family structure and what are their practices when it comes to death and bereavement...
At first, there were a lot of ideas, time machine concept, story telling, actual play... but we ended to have a video presentation instead because we noticed that an actual play put a lot of efforts because you have to bring costumes and you should also decorate the room.
The night before the taping, (saturday) we made the props for the video, we also finished the script (I mean carla did) and also the whole concept... I enjoyed making the props with them because its been a while since I had time with my group mates. I went home around 10pm and the others stayed there and decided to sleep over.
On our way
Finally last sunday Feb. 17, 2008 we had our taping for the play... We went to Mommy jo's house (groupmate) in Sunset, Angeles City... The house is really big and there are a lot of trees outside and a big place for us to shoot our mini movie.Different roles was designated and Carla and I was chosen to act as VJs. Since we are only few in the group, there are double roles and some even triple roles. I played as a girl who was being manipulated by evil spirits, one of the mexican, one of the children of the Hispanic family.
I had a lot of fun... and we also had picture taking part, with our costumes on of course. We shoot the VJ part last and we felt so self conscious ( Carla and me) but we have to do it.
After that, I compiled all the videos and converted them for me to be able to edit them. I spent almost fifteen hours making the video and I didn't had any sleep last night because of that.
Supposedly we will have our video presentation first this day and the reporting on Tuesday (MONDAY IS HOLIDAY WEEE) but because of technicalities we moved our video presentation on Tuesday...
I feel a little shiftless these past 2days... I'm not really feeling well... grr I wasn't able to enter my afternoon class... hmpppp! so, bye for now guys.. I have my class today.. until next time ^^
