To be perfectly honest, the reason it's been a few days since my last post is 20% laziness & 80% spite. Which, I know, it's a very flattering confession - I'm only human. See, I put in a good deal of thought to my last post, I wanted to get those thoughts off my chest, and I did, but I didn't want to do it in a way that toed any lines, and I believe I did that too [except for the Reagan-posterboy remark]. And, yes, I got three - very appreciated - comments. But, the 'spite' comes from knowing that I can 'cut & paste' a movie quote from imdb and get a whole truck load of comments/ interaction - or I can sit down and really try to write something thoughtful and listen to 'crickets chirping' for days on end. Anyways, these things happen, moving on:
Parallel Lines - thanks to Jeff for mentioning this film, I emailed Nina Davenpost, the director the other night in hopes of getting a copy of the film - as well as her first film, 'Hello Photo', now I've just got to scrounge up some extra cash. It looks very, very interesting though.
I guess above when I mentioned the 20% laziness thing - that wasn't all that accurate, I've actually been keeping fairly busy with proj: pedal, and on-top of that: tomorrow, saturday & sunday I'll be helping with a short film - and I'm going to be whipped; each day of shooting starts at 5'pm and runs until 5'am... and no, that's not a typo. And on-top of those two things, I've been working on a short film of my own, something to get me back behind the camera after all these past months of planning, planning, planning and then, a little more planning. And then, not so much "on-top", more "on-the-side" I'm helping a friend get ready for a music video he's been wanting to shoot. But I'm very excited about it - I think his idea holds a lot more possibility than he even gives himself credit for. More on all this later...
