Hello! This is my World...Here is where I will post my thoughts and stuff like that!!! If anything is labled a "Rant" thats what it is me going on and on about somthing I love or hate!!!!
Woooooohooooooooooo! Thats right!
The short film I spent almost a year prepping for and then spent many long hours editing got played at an outdoor theater put on by the Carmel Film Festival committee! Woot!
All is good in the world today! I didn't get to attend... sadly, but it is still a very exciting moment for me!
After all the trouble the director, writer, producer and I had getting this film together it was nice to have a fresh breath of some success!
We almost got arrested making this, we burnt a hole in a blanket, our film got partially destroyed, a bathtub almost caused our doom, we're in a lot bit of debt now, and I went a month with almost no sleep...
but we did it! :D
Its been awhile!
Sadly no short story today... but I am going to link to my newest video project!
Which was written by me so you know its gonna be weird! lol
A short history of the font Times New Roman as told by Times New Roman himself...
Made in After Effects for a class project.
Yeah... took me awhile to actually post this...
Its the movie I wrote and directed for my class last year (2009) in October...
You know, the one that I said I was gong to post about 5 times since then but never did...
Until now!
^-^
Now I know you were expecting another short story, but think of it as a short story with action!
And no worries all of my actors were just fantastic!!!
Its kinda hard to hear so you might need to really blast the sound... sorry about that.
Below this note is the movie after the movie is my back story about how it came to be and all the problems I had making it... so feel free to stay tuned after the film!!!
Ok now for how in the world I thought this crazy plot line up. ^^;;
Basicly everyone in our class had to write a script and I was having writers block!!! >.>
It was the day we were supposed to turn them in/present them and I still didn't know what to do so I turned to my roommate (hereto called roomie) for help. Roomie said I should write about a fruit cup.
And my mind worked something like this:
Fruit cup->cup->crazy person->coffee->coffee mug->crazy person in love with cup->fruit cup
And then I wrote it down and sprinted to my class.
Now this is a class of about 30 people, we all had to stand up and pitch our script to the class and then we all voted to see which 5 were going to be made into movies.
Mine was one of those 5 and I was on the top of the world that day.
Then came the hunt for the actors... basical I stood in our film studio (yeah it was filmed in a real studio) and yelled "Who can act and wants to be in my film?" and I got some answers... Actually Dr. Evenson (whoose character is named after a certian friend) was a man, but my actress talked me into changing the sex and giving her the role. I think it worked out great. Macy, the secretay, was found the day of filming... 30min before it was shot...
Now, 2 days before filming I was in a horrible accedient. I was getting up into my bed (its a solid 4ft off the ground) slipped and my foot landed on a pair of scissors. The were stuck in my foot good and I went to the emergency room and 5 hours later at 4am they were out of my foot and all was good.
But I was out all the next day and then it was already time to film. I was in a blind panic limping around that day...
I got to the studio and none of my crew was there (one had swine flu the other was just late) So there I was limping trying to drag the couch into position... then I gave up and began recruiting random people to help. ^^;;
I had 2 hours to setup, film, and clean up my movie... That is NOT alot of time...
So it was rush, panic, rush, limp and thten it was done!
Then I edited it together... it took about uhhhh maybe 5, 6 hours to edit I think.
And tadaaaaa!!!
If you made to the end of my explaination, cutos to you! Gold star!!!
