Ok it's obvious: I haven't been around for a while. Why? Long story short a lot of crap happened within a very short space of time and I allowed my self to be distracted. I lost sight of my plans, my enthusiasm and, apart from Project Cheese, I stopped attending uni.. I am greatly annoyed with my self-it took me a long time to decide what wanted to do with my future plus no one thought I'd ever make it to university, or college even. You get the gist.
So what happened to Project Cheese? I was enjoying the entire project. It was going well, it was ahead of schedule, someone vital stopped coming to uni and gradually this caused the entire thing to loose that solidity. It did get completed. Hate how it turned out though. The compositor of my group reordered the shots as he saw fit (ignoring the animatic and notes I left for him.) He then proceeded to hand it in without informing me, despite the fact that I asked him to show me before hand so, as director I, could check it and perhaps work on making alterations.
Usually, as a director, it would be my role to sit with the individual editing the shots together or at least watch a short edited sequence and give it the "all clear" so you can make sure that it is just right but if that person starts and finishes the edit without informing you then it is out of your hands.
Perhaps I'm just blaming someone for my falier. Maybe this only happened because I was a bad director. I'm not looking for sympathy, I don't feel sorry for my self, I'm just disappointed.
