NETHERBORN - Directed by Mark T. Aro

[Mark T. Aro]

OMG Mark! I just checked out your grabs. (been awhile since I've visited your thread). WOW! Beautiful shots. I love, love, LOVE that first one of the forest. The two XCU on the book/hand are very nice as well. I love that framing. And wonderful light with the guy in the papasan chair.

Very nice, sir!

Thanks so very much. I really appreciate the kind words. I could take all the credit, but truth be told... I HAVE A ROCKIN TEAM!

THE COMPLIMENTS ABOVE ARE FOR YOU GUYS AND GALS OF HYPERACTIVE AND ASSOCIATES!!!


I am finally working on the poster... look for that soon.

[Mark T. Aro]

True. Sorry. OK I'll be ready for both sizes. None for you though... :evil:

Now that would be a funny outtake!

What a great guy! :love4:

[sfoster]

Sounds good! What is the location you are looking for. I might be able to help! After all I have been a location scout before! As for the 16GB cards, NUKE AWAY! http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/images/smilies/Drogar-Mark-10%28DBG%29.gif

[Mark T. Aro]

I finally did a poster... I figured that I should probably get one done before the contest is over!

Simply wonderful! :Drogar-Happy(DBG):

[Gary Sconce]

Now that would be a funny outtake!

Actually, after bending a lot of metal... I got smart and made a single sled universal for all sizes. :happy:

We can put you on it too. It is ready to carabiner up and go! :grin:

I am loaded up. I put in the smaller generator just in case we need to charge something or run a computer at the shoot sites. I will get food, get Matt and head out to your place at 5pm. I think I remember how to get there. :thumbsup:

[quicksilver8907]

That poster is amazing.

Awesome!

Actually, we are not coming here first, we are going straight to the cemetery to beat the sunset and then we are heading over to my place for a GREEN-SCREEN-O-RAMA!

I will give Matt directions... it is up by my place and it is actually easier to find.

Lisa wants to know if you have any bolt cutters. I have an old lock on a bunk bed that needs to be cut off so I can put it on Craigs List.

:happy:

[sfoster]

sure thats what the bolt cutters are for! :happy:

Don't worry, I wont tell! :lipsrseal

[jasonthewho]

Poster = Very Nice!

Hey All,
Here's one of the images/screen grab from this weekends shoot. RAW image + some MARK FU...

http://www.dvxuser6.com/uploaded/24348/1211386679.jpg

Where'd you guys shoot this?

[Ted Arabian]

Thanks man... it's not exactly smoke... you will find out!



Mr. Aro huh... well thank you Mr. Rogan...

That is not smoke in the poster??? I don't mean what it is in the "film" but in the print of the poster.

And as for Mr. Rogan.... he is very formal, isn't he! He totally confused me when he wrote me a PM. I was like, "Mr. Arabian?" Who's that??? :grin: I guess he is just respecting his elders! :crybaby:

[Gary Sconce]

:happy:

kk. I put in the bolt cutters. :thumbsup: Oh yeah... :huh: Why would anyone want to buy an old cut off lock on Craig's list? :evil:

So, are you going to fly on the Hyperglide for at least one BTS shot? Hehehe. :grin:

[Gary Sconce]

Where'd you guys shoot this?

Don't tell! We Ninja'd in somewhere really cool... :cheesy:

[Mark T. Aro]

What it actually is in the poster is a couple of images from a photo of Jellyfish tendrils layered and Mark-Fu'd together. What it represents in the poster, well you will see when you see the film. :grin:

[Mark T. Aro]

Where'd you guys shoot this?

Uh... up in the Sequoias... Like Gary said, we were quite stealthy, but it was so beautiful that I just could not resist.:engel017: Our Co-Producer Jen freaking out at first saying... We are gonna Get Caught! I told her.. don't look guilty and most people will ignore you. By the time we were done shooting most of it and we were looking for that last great shot, she was very bold and we did our last set up right out in the open. No one said a thing... we got a small audience for a while, but mostly, people just ignored us.

[Ted Arabian]

Whoa! Jellyfish??? Wow. I have to go back and check that out again.

As for the film.... I am not really interested. NOT! (hee hee hee)

[Ted Arabian]

I love the Sequoias. I miss this so much. There is nothing on earth that smells like a forest of Sequoias.

[Mark T. Aro]

I love the Sequoias. I miss this so much. There is nothing on earth that smells like a forest of Sequoias.

I would have to agree with you there. The crazy thing is that it was 102 35 miles down the hill where I live and up there... well there was stlil patches of snow in shaded spots under the trees. It was very cool!:happy:

[Ted Arabian]

You are in the Yosemite valley area, right?

[Mark T. Aro]

You are in the Yosemite valley area, right?

Nope! Yosemite is in the Sierras... that is where Matt grew up and where Gary still lives. I am right around Squaw Valley at the foot of the Kings Canyon and Sequoia National forests. I am at about 1,000' elevation and where we shot those shots was around 6,000'. All three of those forests border the San Joaquin Valley which is where Fresno is and where we are all roughly located.

[Ted Arabian]

King's Canyon! Yikes!!!! I nearly went over that waterfall there. Not on purpose mind you. What a horrifying memory.

I figured that you must be around Yosemite (heaven on earth!) because I know that Gary is living there. I will have to take a look at a map and check out where you are.

I am coming to LA for the Fat Monster shoot. I wish that you guys were closer. I'll have to catch you guys on another visit.

[Ted Arabian]

Thanks! I really want to take my wife back to Yosemite. And I didn't get to take her to the Sequoia National forests. King's Canyon... I have no interest in returning!

I will visit you guys one day.

My brother's in Concord. I know, not close. But a visit is in the future!

I just love meeting dvxusers. Hell... I should start a book!

I've been to both Los Angeles and OR/WA and met handfuls of dvxusers. I look forward to meeting more! I am especially interested in that HyperActive Crowd!

One day.

If you come out I will give you a tour of tour of Yosemite National Park. I actually live 13 miles south of the entrance. I have taken many on tours there and know the history of the park somewhat well. :happy:

[Ted Arabian]

That would be great, Gary.

I've been to Yosemite quite a lot as a kid and I took my wife there a few years ago. I just love the place.

I know they don't do it anymore but they used to build a fire and push it over El Capitan! Man, was that something to see!!!

So many places of beauty there....

I will let you know when I get out there!

They pushed the firefall off of Glacier point... the place where McCauley threw off the chicken to show how far down the valley was. The chicken was unhurt and climbed up by nightfall. :smile:

Matt and I have been working on a screenplay for a film that takes the firefall into the script. :D

[Ted Arabian]

Oh yeah! Glacier Point!!! That's right!

Didn't know about the chicken experiment!

Hmmmm..... combine the two and you have dinner!

[Gary Sconce]

Hmmmm..... combine the two and you have dinner!

Yup! Fresno is a great area as we are close to all of these places and have a great city too. There is an area around Fresno with almost any type of scene you can think of. California is a great place for films. :kali:

[Gary Sconce]

Mark and Matt: We are having light thundershowers up here near Yosemite right now. I will be going back for my small canopy to shelter the camera work should the clouds burst on us. Be prepared for rain and possible thunder and lightning. This may be GREAT! :grin: Perfect weather for Netherborn.

[Larry Rutledge]

My brother's in Concord. I know, not close. But a visit is in the future!

Let me know when you visit your brother, I work in Pleasanton which is just down the road from Concord. I pass through Concord every day on my way to/from work.

[Mark T. Aro]

Well we are heading out to shoot more stuff for Netherborn. Hopefully, if we get all of our shots tonight, then we will have a few small pick-up shots and one last scene and then we are done! We have a big VFX shoot tonight, so I had better get my mind right!

We had an unfortunate communication error and our intended shoot tonight got relocated to another spot, but I think that this alternate location is an improvement over the previous one.

More soon.... wish us luck!

I was very pleased with the work done last night. Mark, you ROCK! Matt, your DP-ing was so good, and Shane, great gaffer work. It is so fun working with such a happy, positive and talented crew. Two tremendous directors that work so well together. I got GREAT BTS shots of all of it, delivered to Mark's hard drive. Woooooo Hoooooo!

Mark, cool site! I am glad you notice such places... missed by most people. The structure there was possibly 150 years old too. Neato.

:Drogar-Shock(DBG): I was extremely disappointed Mark... You didn't fly in the Hyperglide. :shocked: You missed your big chance. Matt did, Troy did, Shane did, I did, Randol did, Mary did, Hunter did... but you... wussed out. Man... How can I respect you ever again? Boy. Well, in the future, you can fly on the HyperFly rig and make up for it. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

Seriously, I can hardly wait to see what you are going to do with that amazing footage Matt and Shane shot last night. WOW! It was an adventure just watching it made. Fun,:2vrolijk_08: fun:2vrolijk_08:, fun! :2vrolijk_08:

[Mark T. Aro]

Last nights shoot went really well. I was a little disappointed at nature for not giving me more sunlight, but oh well. We shot some real nice scenes at dusk and we will need to get some more detailed shots on Saturday and that scene will be wrapped. As far as all of the Green Screen stuff goes, Gary was right... I think it went really well!

As far as "Wussing out" as Gary so eloquently put it... I firmly disagree! I was busy... going through shots and the script with my AD... yeah that's what I was doing! Ah shucks and really wanted to suspend myself and have ever one of you goobers documenting it with a camera... I guarantee you it would be funny and I guarantee that at some point it would end up on YouTube.... No thanks! :Drogar-Dolar(DBG):

[Matt Sconce]

I guarantee that at some point it would end up on YouTube.... No thanks! :Drogar-Dolar(DBG):

Our secret plan has been revealed...:Drogar-Evil(DBG):

Yes, however our secret secret plan has been unleashed upon mark. It was our secret plan to get him suspended, filmed, and on youtube, but our secret secret plan is going perfectly.

[Mark T. Aro]

While you guys are screwing around over here I am working... I just posted some VFX shots of Shanes stuff... Shane, I do have to say that I think that I found your solution... slight artifacting, but if you can live with it, I think that it still works. :engel017:

[Gary Sconce]

Yes, however our secret secret plan has been unleashed upon mark. It was our secret plan to get him suspended, filmed, and on youtube, but our secret secret plan is going perfectly.

Don't let Mark know that the plan is still going! You squealer. :shocked:

Mark... Repeat after me... "I am safe. No one is going to get me. There is no plan. I will be fine... :cheesy: Plumbers are our friends..." :2vrolijk_08:

[sfoster]

By the way, I didn't jump in the hyperglide. I missed out. But I will next time!!!

[Gary Sconce]

By the way, I didn't jump in the hyperglide. I missed out. But I will next time!!!

Oh, I though you did fly in it. Maybe it was your hair that got caught in it. lol. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

BTW the wig was just wrong! :cheesy:

The sumos are everywhere! What are we going to do?

Hey talk about screwing around... finish the Godzilla scene in PUSH. You still have that to do before the Rodan VFX is started on. I think that the sumo in Shane's vid isn't as important as the Gitara shot in PUSH. Mothra can wait. :kali: (I always wanted a Godzilla suit to jump and roll around in like the movies!) :love4:

Seriously, thanks for all of your amazing VFXing Mark. I can hardly wait to see the final versions of PUSH, Netherborn, Impossible Race, and now Shane's funny short too... sumos and all! :happy:

Hey, after that: SLEEPER!!!!!!!!! :thumbsup:

Hey, you don't need sleep, just dreaming. And you have Impossible Dreaming! See... You're OK. :happy:

Well, I'm back on the Hypercrane. Thanks for trying to show me the NBC crane yesterday. I hope to see it later. I have to get some tubing for the 'big weld'. At least it is modular, so I can just repeat the same configuration over and over.:violin:

[Gary Sconce]

Did you get to download all of my still and video BTS from yesterday's shoot? :huh: I shot some absolutely cool shots of you directing. Please post some if time allows. :grin::thumbup:

[Gary Sconce]

Check your email. I sent you photos of a place we talked about. Up shot, closer shot and back shot. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

[Gary Sconce]

Well, no reply... that may be good. Hope you are VFXing. This summer sometime it would be interesting to be a fly on the wall behind you and watch you do your magic with your Mark-Fu. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

Yep! The images were great! I am definitely going in that direction... I have had connection issues so it is hard to view large files up here. Sorry!



VFX'ing...
Nope... shooting Netherborn... remember!?

I am back on VFX later this weekend.

Oh yeah! I remembered... and the weather is GREAT! Perfect for that pick up shooting tonight. Wish I was there. Hopefully my BTS movies and stills helped you so you can have an easier time of it this evening. :happy:

What a great day of shooting that was. It was as if the weather came in just for your shoot!

This is what you need to shoot for, for building the hypercrane Gary http://www.cammate.com/camera-cranes/retract-camera-crane.html

That's really good. I love it when the weather is useful for the feeling of a shot. :thumbup: Thanks for all your hard work Shane. Was it muddy up there? :huh:

I love that picture of you directing the Hyperglide shot and acting it out behind the monitor. Those ants in Matt's pants were really big too! :shocked:

As to whether a Scot has anything under the kilt... Of course he did... Shoes and socks, Sir! (Actually Matt wears 'Courtesy Pants' for all who realllllly want to know. He does not sport his kilt 'Regimental'.) :happy:

Mark, I am so glad the shoot went well for on Saturday. Wah Hooooooo! :Drogar-Happy(DBG):

[Gary Sconce]

Great BTS Mark! Nice location too. Sorry you had to travel so far to get there from home. :grin:

[Dustin R. Rogan]

oohhh nice one sir

[sfoster]

I didn't need a wig, I have the real thing! By the way, you posted grabs, so NO SUMO FOR YOU!

[Mark T. Aro]

What a great day of shooting that was. It was as if the weather came in just for your shoot!

Yes Shane, I am real happy with Saturdays shooting.

We didn't actually do pick up shots, we re-shot the whole scene. Due mainly to the fact that the whole thing was rushed on Thursday, I just needed the actors to go somewhere that they just couldn't go on Thursday. I am happy to say that we got there in the end and we got all of the different angles and cut-aways that I wanted.

All things considered, it was a great day of shooting.:grin:

[Mark T. Aro]

I didn't need a wig, I have the real thing! By the way, you posted grabs, so NO SUMO FOR YOU!

Whew! Thanks!

Yeah I will post more soon, but now I am on to stuff for our friends at Blare, then VFX on PUSH.

[Mark T. Aro]

The shots look great. I wish I could have been there, but things happen. Hope everything went well.


oohhh nice one sir

Great BTS Mark! Nice location too. Sorry you had to travel so far to get there from home. :grin:

OK. When I get my camera back today I'll look for some good ones of you. Mark probably has them already. If I remember right there are some pretty good shots of you, Matt and Mark. Thankfully there are never any of me as that would break the lens... :grin:

If the lens can survive my MUG it can surely withstand yours!

Shane, I have a bunch from Gary's stuff and from Saturday. I will stick them on a disk and get them to you when I return the card.

[Matt Sconce]

Actually that was shot by Mariah on Saturday when I was directing Angie and Randol.

Last scene being shot tomorrow night at Matt's place... still working out some details... I am missing a major prop/set piece:Drogar-BlackEye(DBG, but hopefully it will all come together. Most likely we will shoot from the hip as usual. :)

Last scene being shot tomorrow night at Matt's place... still working out some details... I am missing a major prop/set piece:Drogar-BlackEye(DBG, but hopefully it will all come together. Most likely we will shoot from the hip as usual. :)

I can make it Thursday if you need me!!!

[sfoster]

"...we will shoot from the hip as usual..."

My movie experience is the same, however I tried it with a gun once and it really messed up my wrist. And it was just a 22.

Yep! I emailed you! Do you have a dollie setup? could you bring it?

[sfoster]

Yep I can bring it!

[Gary Sconce]

I've got the big green screens and will bring them. I think the stands and crossbars are in your van Mark. I will bring the monitor table, and mucho extension cords to pull power to lighting. BTS cameras, Hypercam and shoulder mount (Hyperbrace?) are coming too. :kali:

I used to pull the bearings set them on a thick pad of paper towel and spray them with triflow or other such light oil. The gravity and the cohesive forces of the oil pull the dirt out of the bearing and down into the paper towel. Voila! Clean bearings. (Old street luge wheel trick from caveman days.) :happy:

[Gary Sconce]

Loaded up and ready to go. See ya tomorrow at the shoot. :2vrolijk_08:

[sfoster]

The problem isn't dirty bearings so much as it is crappy bearings. Also the wheels are filthy and need a good scrubbing to get the gunk off them to make a smoother ride. By the way "gunk" is a very technical term, I'm sorry if it is over most peoples heads. I'll try to define it for you. Goopy and Junk mixed together.

So I just got off of the phone with MATT. We are shooting at his house tonight and he was home puking his guts out yesterday. So... we are still shooting and hopefully he just had food poisoning.... :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

At least that is what I am going to tell myself until we are done shooting. Last scene is tonight! :shocked: Then Netherborn is in the CAN.

For anyone interested in our Feature Film Thread, I am posting a small update shortly.:Drogar-Happy(DBG):

[Gary Sconce]

In the can will be good. I am very excited to see your final version of Netherborn. It was sure fun to make it. Look forward to seeing you tonight. :engel017:

[Gary Sconce]

(Next day after shoot! 3hr of sleep.) GREAT SHOOT!!! :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG) What a crew. I am amazed at the tremendous professionality of the HYPERACTIVE STUDIOS team. From Director through AD, DP, Sound, camera on down, it is such a pleasure working fast, hard and creatively with you guys. The tremendous product that this team can make in a short amount of time it really wonderful. I am truely impressed that you can make set pieces, arrange and rearrange sets, keep actors comfortable and motivated, throw around lighting correctly and quickly, deal with minor technical problems, and work as a team in such a professional fashion. All while having FUN! Wow! :2vrolijk_08: I think that is the best thing about HYPERACTIVE... We really have fun on set doing great stuff. Yay! :thumbsup:

Mark, check your email as I have already sent you all the BTS stills. :kali:

[sfoster]

Mark, I just captured to my hard drive, but I'll leave it on the P2 card since we only took up about 1/3 of the card, but at least that give us the option of deleting clips if we need more time. I doubt we will, considering all the cards we have available, but I like options!

watch it Gary with the dreaming big...as you may have read, I dreamed once of a DVXuser feature....and I almost got cornered into doing it...nowhere near ready to do that...but still my ideas for it are turning into a possible 2 part fest...we'll see what the powers that be say about it.

Rogan

[sfoster]

Hey dreaming big is awesome, whether you get cornered or not! You just have to make sure your dreams are coming true the way they are supposed to, and not have someone else force their dream on you! HOWEVER, I'm satisfied with the HVX for now. Until I get funding for a feature, it is as good as I need.

[sfoster]

By the way, I just rebuilt my dolly for tonights shoot! New bearings and Wheels. MUCH SMOOTHER!! WOO HOO!

Here's a few images from the last night of shooting. We had a smaller crew than usual, but it was a last minute adjustment to the schedule, but it all went very well.

Well done, Sir. :thumbsup:

It went really well! You guys were definitely missed, but you were in the right place. We would've been hard pressed to fit more people in Jen's living room anyway!

We got some real nice footage and I can not tell you how happy I am that it is in the can!:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Now I just have to clear the other stuff off of the plate and move on to the Edit.

Anyone notice that the HVX, Brevis and Marshall monitor are still on and the HVX is pointing at Angela and Jennifer? Interesting. You were so tired that you left the monitor and camera on after the last take. I need a magnifying glass to see if it is recording... :happy:

And... for Movie makers... Isn't sleep highly overrated? :violent5:

[sfoster]

Actually, I did that on purpose! I thought it looked cool, so I left it on!

[Mark Johnson]

Mark, I thought you were shooting on the RED. Was that not part of the plan?

[Mark T. Aro]

Mark, I thought you were shooting on the RED. Was that not part of the plan?

It was the plan... I actually had it all in place and last minute I was informed that we would have to rent a lens (1/2 hour before the deadline for FED EX) so it ended up not happening.

Long story short... it was much more flexible shooting on the HVX because we have three of them and our crew has done a lot of stuff together so when we shoot it is play and we just keep going till it is done. The guys with the RED are great guys but it is their business and they are just not as flexible as we are. Personally I like to be able to adjust and change or reshoot in a different place if it isn't feeling right and it is just harder to do under those conditions. You know... with that FREE FILMMAKING mentality, you have to be super flexible.

Anyway, no hard feelings... The HVX with the brevis is beautiful and it really came out nicely.

:cheesy:

[Gary Sconce]

"...it was much more flexible shooting on the HVX because we have three of them and our crew has done a lot of stuff together so when we shoot it is play and we just keep going till it is done..."

You are so right, and the HVX is such a nice camera! 'Just gimme light' it says.
It is fun to shoot with you and the crew. The positive team mentality experienced while having fun shooting and working with excellence is soooo wonderful. I can't wait to see Netherborn! YAY! :thumbsup:

[sfoster]

Having the same setup made it so I could take off to San Diego while you shot, come back and jump in just like I never left. If we had a studio to shoot the green screen stuff in, and a couple more Brevis units, we could have cut about a day off production time because we would be able to do a multi camera shoot!

Thanks Gary! Renders are taking dreadfully long. Right now I am rendering the big scene for PUSH and I was hoping that it would be finished when I cam in this morning, but all those DAMN reflections are killing me. I should speed up slightly, but I was hoping to do post this morning on this thing and it is looking like it will still be rendering into this evening. ARGH!

I am hooking up my laptop now as we speak, hoping it can help with some of the frames.

[Mark T. Aro]

hey ALL!

Some of you already know this, but there is no way that I will finish this thing in time for the deadline... not even close. Most of the folks involved knew this, but we gave it a shot. The big thing for me is it got me off my butt and making a film. For that I am very excited. I am steadily working on it and will continue until it is done because it is a fun project and definitely worth finishing, but I just wanted to take a moment and thank everyone for their support.

I told Matt that I was gonna blame him and PUSH for missing the deadline... (just to give him crap) but to be honest, once I started getting my footage, I realized that it was much more than was doable by the timeframe... with or without PUSH, it didn't make me want to do it any less if anything I didn't think so much about the deadline and more about just getting the footage that I could be happy with. I think that we got there in the end and I look forward to really taking the time needed to get this thing done the way I want. So no it is not Matt's fault AT ALL.... but I am still going to give him crap about it just because it is fun!

Thanks again for your help and encouragement, I will be sure to post images when I have them.

[Mark Harris]

Well I think this sucks, but it's not unheard of. Will you put it up in the UserFilms section when done?

[Mark T. Aro]

Hey Mark, what was the major reason you couldn't finish? Render times? Tracking? ... just curious, and I've certainly been there myself.


Actually to be honest, I just started to see the story go in a place that I really liked which increased the time a lot. That and I didn't get the filming wrapped until 2 weeks ago. I was the only post guy on PUSH so it took me the better part of two weeks (and that is with a lot of simplified solutions) and I just wasn't willing to rush Netherborn so I spent up to the wire on PUSH and I still haven't even started cutting Netherborn. For me this was a get off my butt and make a film nudge. The FEST is cool, but I really just wanted my own film. This is actually my first film, officially. I have worked on a lot of stuff over the years and Matt and I co-concieved, co-wrote and co-directed Sleeper (still unfinished) for me this is my first solo directorial project. The idea is my original idea, I enlisted my buddy Scott Cuthbertson to help me with the script and the great Hyperactive team help me put it together, at least the stuff up to this point. For me though, the fun has just started.

I promise you that even my team will be surprised with the end product. So I am taking my time and I am creating something that should be pretty decent for my first official Directorial debut.

On a side note... totally out in left field Randol (one of our Hyperactive teammates) and I are fiddling with the PS3 render farm myth. I am convinced that it is possible as is he. He is quite the linux guru so we will see what we come up with. Matt volunteered his PS3 for testing (hopefully we wont blow it up! :Drogar-Dolar(DBG):)

I am going to use that rendering source that you pointed us to.
:thumbup:

[Matt Sconce]

Actually to be honest, I stole Matt's Red. I sicked a rabid wombat on him while his back was turned. It was actually a ninja wombat...trained in the art of biteyokrotch. And the honest reason I did not finish Netherborn is I was dancing and frollicking too much. Sometimes I get carried away and just start frollicking. It is hard to put in words.
:thumbup:


It is okay Mark. I am glad you finally shared that deep truth. Now you will feel much better about yourself as a filmmaker!:nads::2vrolijk_08:

[Mark T. Aro]

That is so not what went down! Matt actually kept freaking out because we were running short on time. In his defense he suggested that we cut a lot of corners on the PUSH VFX so I could get on to mine, but I had already decided that I was not going to rush it....

Actually to be honest, I just started to see the story go in a place that I really liked which increased the time a lot. That and I didn't get the filming wrapped before the deadline and because a twelve small hungarian midget hampsters with three legs each bit me in the left armpit and left teeth in the wound had something to do with me not finishing it. For me this was a chance to really start jump roping with a live boa constrictor named 'Bob'. I was really into spinning in my chair and shouting "In everyday and in every way I'm getting bettuh!" For me though, the fun has just started. :Drogar-Dolar(DBG):
