Film Extravaganza

I had so much fun with the group film race on thursday. It was kind of funny because I thought for sure that the other group was going to win. They had such great confidence and the most efficient ways of looping the film around the room. Even though our group didn't really have our shit together, we still came together in the end and made it happen with only three people. Now we just have to come up with an idea for what they are going to stand in front of the class and do. I really like the idea of the rough theatre. I feel that this is what we have created in our Leutze Hall classroom. It has more or less become our canvas of endless possibilities. Just as the article states, we put our salt, sweat, noise and smell into the assignments that we do. There is definetely a sense of roughness to everything that we do in 6X1. From hand manipualting film to wrapping as much film as possible around the room. We basically do what we want and do what we feel. We have created not just an ordinary theatre, but a playground of ideas and madness.
