What an odd contradiction of physical and emotional responses I have at the moment. I’m burned out and inspired at the exact same time. I have things I need to do, want to do, and finishing them feels both good but just opens the door to the rest of what Read more
Going to try a new approach to a couple shoots coming up. I’ve got another greenscreen podcast shoot I wrote last night. The previous two did pretty well, so I think more things like that are in order. They are quick to shoot, quick to edit, play with After Effects Read more
Had a bad experience burning a Blu Ray. Trying to make the Cell Phone Monologues festival 1080p disc and it crapped out with the ISO file. So I guess I have to make it in Adobe Encore and no where else. Hmmm. I have a small tolerance for technical difficulties Read more
I have some big decisions to make soon. Each directions is fraught with peril, upsides and downsides, but always with risk. Neither option has an immediate change; both will take a year or two to come to fruition after long periods of work. Contrary to some, I am a very Read more
Plotting my movie moves for the next year or so. Structure keeps me focused, on track, and even superficial goals help projects see the goal line. Not to score points against anyone else, but to succeed in and of themselves. The past three days have been a throwback to some Read more

I feel like hell. I’m worn down, tired, and sick. Bleeding from a few places, but overall, still okay attitude-wise. I’m countering the crippling depression and loneliness with completing various projects and the euphoria that comes with that. Kinda balances out, especially since I’m sleeping a little better.
