Technically Day 4 - Tim

I was busy yesterday so i didn't go in.

Today i got there about 9:30, but there's only a train every hour or something on a Sunday now so had i got a later one i'd have been hella late. When i got there, Matt gave me the Q&A recording from "Creation" for me to edit down to 5 minutes from about 47. This took me a while as i had to listen through it to cut out silences and then decide which bits were important. In the end i tried to take a bit from each answer and stick it together so it sounds as if it's the same sentence. I also took one long soundbyte because i liked it and thought it was quite important as it explained how he got a more realistic feel to the film.

I was then asked to edit "The Nature of Existence". I started to do this, but shortly after i started, Bill came in and asked if me and two other volunteers (not from LR) if we wanted to go and watch a film called 'Black Narcissus'. So we did, It was quite good, about some nuns and some weird either English or Australian guy, i'm not good with accents and i can't actually remember what he sounded like.

We then walked back into the office and Bill asked us if we would please go and see this film called "House of Numbers" so we did, and he thanked us, which seemed odd, but we watched it and it was a documentary and was kinda dull. However the fun didn't stop there. After the movie, 4 people came and sat down at a table at the front, and a massive crowd of people came and sat in the seats. We then had an hour long debate about the 4 slightly sciency films that had been played and a couple of people in the crowd got a bit worked up about it all and started argueing. Several people left for whatever reason and many complained about Brent Leung's movie, however as with many people who compain about things, they hadn't actually watched the film.

I then walked back into the office, where Matt asked why the hell i was still there after about 9 hours and said i could go home. So i did.
