New Year's resolution(s)

Hey guys... what's your New Year resolution?

Mine is to quit my job and freelance within the next 3 to 4 months so that I can really pursue this filmmaking / acting stuff...

That and get in shape... :beer:

A quick suggestion Tom, win the lotto first. Makes quiting the day job to pursue filmmaking a much more reasonable idea.

Mine is to try to work only on fully funded films...

like that will happen!
 
1. More regular exercise

2. Less mind-alterants.

3. Regular Zen practice.

4. Expand my indie-network, to match my commercial network.

5. Master more software tools.

6. Write more.

7. Animate more.

8. Shoot more.

I plan to work at the place I'm at now until I have about 20k in the bank (I should have that in about 3 - 4 months) and then get my own thing going, which will be web/flash developer / graphic artist / photo retoucher / ebay seller / whatever else I can make money doing...
 
1# Get over the fact that my girlfriend of three years (someone I thought I would marry) left me the day after x-mas for some 43 year old man (she is 20). And find a new girlfriend. Easier said then done…

2# Shoot a script that I recently finished. I just bought the Canon XH A1 to shoot it on.

3# put on weight and muscle mass.

4# Work on a good film reel.

5# Meet more people and have more fun in life.
 
1st feature

return to the ring (MMA, last fight was 4 years ago)

finally settle down with that special someone and quit partying like some young college punk

buy a DW drum kit!!!!!!!

that is all.

good luck to all my fellow dvxusers in the NY and may lady luck shine down upon your shoulders
 
1. Stop drinking Monster Khaos like it was good for me. In other words, no more.
2. Never set foot in McDonalds again.
3. Get out of EMS and into production and so on...
4. Move back to Utah so I can board, bike, climb, race...
5. Regain my inner happiness.
 
Goals:

1. Write 2 feature scripts.
2. Write & direct 2 short films.
3. Write & direct 1 pilot.
4. Finish my handbook.
 
Save the world and be happy doing it.

Yeah, I know this sounds lame... mainly because I stopped making New Year's resolutions about the same time I figured they were just words - about 20 years ago.

Yesterday, my wife & I talked about how messed up is the world we live in. And I realized (once again) that 'saving' the world starts with your closest people - the family, your friends. So my resolution, if any, would be to spend more time with them, let them know every day how much I love them.

That, and drink more red wine.

:beer: Cheers, and a happy New Year!
 
Figure out how to put my kids through college.
