I have discovered a new addiction...Rock Band. Its like Guitar Hero...but you better. I stayed up way past my bedtime, at Bravos house playing it.

Anyways...
I'm about 1/3 of the way planning shot out for the flick. Made a few minor adjustments to the script. Mainly taking time off from the script as to not get burned out on it quickily.

Watched the movie 'The Number 23'...and like I usually do, I am easily swayed to peer pressure. And started looking for 23s. Just like when I watched Superman Returns, I thought I could stop a bullet with my eye...(didn't try, in case you were wondering), and Fight Club thought I was a "Billy Bad-Ass"...

Anyhoos I think this weekend I'm gonna get cracking set a schedule for shooting, locations, and such.

Thanks for reading about my adaptation on my so called life,
Dustin

So I wake up this morning 3:30am, as usual. Walk outside to something that people of the south aren't very accustom to. FREAKIN' SNOW!!! But like most rare snows in Texas, it didn't stick. The flakes were huge, and there were thousands of them...snow always puts a smile on my face, then I step outside and immediately loose the smile to a few choice words, and curse the fact that this is Texas...its supposed to be warm!!! But I digress...

Looking into getting a Spiderbrace. Anyone have one and/or would that be a good investment? Or ways to make a homemade one that'll do just as good as a Spiderbrace.

HAHAHA!!! Snow? You want snow? Come up to NH... We've got snow.

I have spent the last 2 days clearing the snow from my roofs and driveway. There has been SO MUCH this year that it has packed down to a 5 inch sheet of ice. I have been outside swinging a huge pick to break it all up and get it out of my dirt driveway before it melts and turns into MUD.

Anyway, cool (or not so cool) that you got a bit of snow! :)

good luck on the Spiderbrace!

No Thank you on the Snow invite! I live in Texas for a reason...and thats one of them. I absolutely hate the cold. I have been seeing all the snow you Yankees have been getting. (I refer to anyone north of the Red River (OK/TX border for those that don't know) as Yankees...so think of it as a term of endearment. lol, can't talk bad about being a Yankee, my mother is one, but she says she got to Texas as soon as she could, HAHA.

Isn't this insane, just last week I was driving around with the AC running and now I'm freaking out over the snow. Even though it's mostly gone now, the snow did stick around for a little while. I have photographic proof.

Thats living in the country for you...I'm a city boy, didn't stick but on the cars in town... :undecided

Since you're buying, get a Zacuto. :evil:
*cough* (then walks away)
 
I have been trying to leave New Hampshire since 1995!!!

I thought that I had broken free... then I met my wife! Her entire family is here so....

But she is now ready to leave! YEA!!!!

I do love Texas! Dry heat, beautiful wild flowers... Blue Bonnets and Indian Paint Brushes... Prickly Pear cacti.... Jalapenos, Habaneros... Texas BBQ...

God, I am hungry now! For Texas!!!
 
LOL, it is a wonderful country...i mean state.

My mom is from New Hampshire (early years) then Indiana...

Just don't come to Waco lol not too much here, but at same time its been a good home for the past 12 years.
 
Oh, you're in Waco? I was thinking that you were in Austin. (there are so many dvxusers in Austin popping up lately, it seems)

And I know what you mean about "country" vs. state. That was one of the things that I totally loved about Texas. There is so much pride in that state. It is like a small country.
 
As far as I know there are only 3 of us from Waco, that do fests that is. I'm one of few that is from Texas that hates the University of Texas....

ps...I'll be in Austin in Aug. (hopefully)

Nothing new to report. Just stayed up 24 hours Friday Morning to Saturday morning. So I could sleep and not be tired whilst filling in for the weekend Director at work. I probably should get to work on my movie. Took a week off as not to get burned out to quickily.

I made a prototype of my own Spiderbrace out of PVC pipe. Surprisingly it didn't take to long to actually put together. and could theoretically work...all for about $5. well i do still have to buy a bolt to screw into the camera...but yeah it could work. We need to make a few adjustments to it. I'll have to call Gary to take pics if you guys want to see it...(noting special) but I feel like I did something lol instead of wasting my life away playing SOCOM online.

Anyhoos, talk at you fine folks later

ok this is me throwing it out there. I'm looking for someone to possibly score this. I'm not well off in the financial dept. so if one would do this pro-bono...that'd be stellar. It is possible to throw a few bucks ones way but little as possible. anyone got any advice or want to do it. Let me know I'll tell you about the script...once one has agreed of course. This film is top secret!

So, I had the beard-age growing for awhile now...and whilst trimming it I accidentily pressed to hard and whacked off too much on the left side of my face...so as not to walk around like a weirdo...I had to shave it off...i was bummed.

Nothing was done on the movie this weekend...I slept and worked...YEAH!!!

hopefully I can grow the beard back before movie, for now i'm reduced to the classic goatee...

Dustin

ps my face is cold now, i need a scarf or toboggin.

Hey Dustin man. Lots of composers on here are willing to score for free. Hit up Herman Witkam, see if he's got the time... there are lots on here. Listen to their stuff, see what you like best, then send them a PM.

Other than that, how is everything going? Is it nice and toasty down there in Texas? It's supposed to get into the high 60's starting tomorrow here in ol' Nebraska.

This project is going to be the best to work on thus far for us at Arcade Media! I hope you guys have as much fun watching as we will making!

Texas was foggy this morning but should be getting in the 70's 80's this week
