The Blair Witch Project

I just need to squeeze a post out really, it has been a while. I’ve just spent the last hour or so listening to the audio commentary for the Blair Witch Project. I was going to watch it months ago, but you know, I didn’t. We are studying it in media now though so I thought I might as well.

It was fairly entertaining as there were five of them the two writers / directors and three producers. I love Blair Witch for several reasons. First of all as Dawson Leery put it, Hollywood got bulldozed by a group of friends with a camcorder. Encouraging for would be film makers such as myself.

What is cool is how it all got made though. They basically handed the three actors some cameras, supplies, etc then just sent them off into the woods for a week. They dropped supplies and stuff but for the most part they were on their own. Which is what gave all the emotional shots and stuff such reality.

Actually, there is one point I didn’t mention – I launched a
new webmasters forum along with Ceon recently which you want to check out (not
that I am telling you what you want to do or anything but you do want to 😉 –
it’s called Maze Dev.
