Week 4 - Day 27

Yoyo!

As I mentioned earlier, Lilian has agreed to let me attend some English classes on the side, and today, we went to Film-X, a project where people can go to make their own short films. This interested me a lot, and the sheer educational use is immense.

Film-X is housed in Det Dansk Filminstitut, which is the national film institution, meaning there is some government funding involved in this amazing project.

Film-X is fully booked every weekday throughout the school year so that shows how popular it is.



They have a few different setups with static cameras. Two green-screen sets, a car set, and an animation set. The green-screen setups were awesome, you could do some really funky stuff there.

My group (Jeanine, Lennart, and some Danish people who'se names I can't remember) used the car set, and made this video:



It was amazing fun! Afterwards, we had a private screening of all our films, and that was fun too!



So for 75kr, we had the following:

- Use of a film set
- Sound booth (which wasn't needed for the car set)
- Editing (using the [very basic] editing programme provided by Film-X)
- Final production



Totally worth the money! I look forward to continuing the English class (tomorrow morning at 8.30)
