I labored.

Thanks, all for the company. At least it was productive. I think all I did was edit and recycle garbage.

and paint my one hand's nails that isn't editing as much.
 
Hi Pooh

Let's see: aside from editing this crap excuse for a film I have

Saturday - Went with family to a nice fish house for dinner after spending a few hours in the pool teaching my boy to swim; I had him going under water and holding his breath and collecting coins.

Sunday - Spent a couple hours teaching my son how to play baseball and drinking a few cervezas with wife in the dugout while he played on field afterwards. Then we all went to Henneseys for dinner

Monday - Mainly chilled (editing this crap excuse for a film I have)
 
I worked as a camera operator on the local MDA (Muscular Dystrophy Association) Telethon. We set up Sunday from 3:00pm and did our last cut-in at 12:00am. I returned this morning for our crew call of 6:30am and worked until we tore everything down and packed it up at 7:00pm. In fact, I can't believe I'm still awake... but, it's a good kind of sleepy. ;)
 
friday, sat and sunday: Shot a music video for an underground rapper and his ( no joke) gang. Did i mention it was in the Projects?

Either way, i actually was warmly welcomed and had a great weekend especailly at the barbecue on sunday, and had a blast. ( i actually got to run from cops with a real gang!) we ran because we were shooting on top of the roof of the complex, and apparently its illegal to be up there so someone yelled somethign out a window , and they all scattered and took me with them and we hid in someones house. Apparetly, when the police are called, they go up to the roof while they are there to make sure noone is up there, its an easy way to bust your chops if youre caught up there and do a search. Plus we were without permit. i dont want a NYC Filming without a permit on governmet property ticket. It just sounded expensive.

Will post grabs asa i finish the shoot tommorw.

Saturday - I went golfing in the morning, then shopped in the afternoon for my wife's birthday.

Sunday - Went to church, then celebrated my wife's birthday

Today - Went to Apple Hill (http://www.applehill.com/) - basically a festival for apples, but it is at various locations and they have many different kinds of apple pies and fresh apple cider, etc, etc

editing crap is one of the fastest ways to becoming a better shooter and storyteller. you see exactly where you failed ( or someone else ) and have no one else to kick but yourself.

I'm working on some crap right now!!! and it feels awesome!!! wooo-whoo!

Well today I was at a party where pretty much every dude at the party was hitting on my girlfriend and there was nothing I could do about it. Well, I could but the best thing to do at a THUG hangout is to keep cool. They kept their distance so I didn't have to Jackie Chan anyone. Even If I did, I'd probably end up getting shot. So I kept is Steven Segal with alittle Dr. Phil.
 
Friday: I watched transporter 2 and played xbox on the digital projectors at my local theater, with some friends

Saturday: Filmed the hardest location for my contest entry
Sunday: Filmed more for the contest entry and edited
Monday: I worked as a grip/cam op/whatever else they needed for the MDA telethon as well. Wasn't very exciting, but was good experience.
And I don't have class tomorrow, so I'm catching up on sleep and doing homework. lol
 
Friday I got to sit in on a 35mm film trans for a client's stock footage (carpet co)
Saturday, I watched football with my girlfriend's alumni association - Gator's fan by proxy only (unless the Dawgs are playing!)
Sunday....I know I went to a bar-b-que and there were several kegs...
...woke up today and didn't feel like doing much, so I watched movies in between naps!

I went to Atlantis in bahamas and ended playing blackjack with david arquette and courtney cox.

It was like a 7 day drinking binge.
 
I worked on editing my piece of **** entry for the ZombieFest and I'm packing for a week-long shoot. It's not going to be fun and I won't be back until the 13th (so I'm gonna have to bust ass to get my film done). Booooooooo!
 
Why does it seem everyone had more fun than I did? I had the joy of chaning the u-joints on my truck.

Shot some skyline footy for a project though, but as always, should have shot more!
 
Saturday- Shot my friend's sister's wedding, as a favor. Now I get to edit 6 hours of footage for free, as a favor.

Sunday- Labored

Monday- Labored until the evening, then had one of the best meals of my life.
 
Saturday- Shot my friend's sister.

Sunday- Friend stiffed me the money.
