I'm a Baby-Fiddler

I'm taking a film class this semester. But it's not one of those film study classes where you watch Citizen Kane and you talk about which part gave you the biggest boner. No, it's a fucking hands-on, go out and film and then edit on a Mac, film class. And it's pretty wild. Our teacher has done work for the Discovery Channel and the Science Channel and he's even done shit with some old guy they consulted for Jurassic Park, like a scientist, actually I think it was Jack Horner. Anyways, for some reason, he's now teaching in the middle of nowhere, Wisconsin. But he's very knowledgable and he's pretty funny too. And I'm learning alot. I know learning is gay, but when it's about stuff you really enjoy, it's a little less gay, I think.

Anywho, that video I posted a while back, The Weatherman, was for this class. He handed back our films today and when he was passing mine down he said to me in front of the class "Paul, you have some comedy chops." This made me feel pretty happy and I said "thank you," but then he said "except for the baby thing, that was a little weird." So now the whole class probably thinks I'm a huge pedophile, or do really weird stuff with babies, because he didn't elaborate on what I did weird in my video that had to with a baby. It's not far from the truth, but...

Here's the grade and commentary he handed back with the film:

If you'll remember, the baby joke he's referring to from my film is the line "That's where hail comes from. Now I'll tell you where babies come from." I don't actually tell you where babies come from (that'll be a video some other time, eh?), so it's really not that bad. Anyways, here ya go, you can recap the video:

Also, here's another video I made for that class a couple of days ago. I didn't write it, so it's not funny, but I did edit and act in it; and hey, when you're on PIC it's either this or an article about shitting.

This is a very rough cut, and it is supposed to be a black and white movie with no dialogue. Some scenes are missing. Basically no better than a shitting/farting article:
