I’ll post the music video for the Offset Spectacles in July when I come back from LA. It just needs a polish.
I’ve been working on a feature script about post 90’s high school girls which I’m trying to shoot at the end of this summer or possibly next spring.
I also want to shoot my short film Youth, probably next Spring. I’ll probably do the fundraising for it on Kickstarter.com sometime this fall.
Most of my time goes into the day job and living normal life. If I were more disciplined I could probably get more done, quicker. But drinking, sex and all sort of emotional things get in the way and progress is sacrificed for experience I suppose.
I’ll be in LA from mid-June to early July. I wanna shoot something while I’m home. We’ll see if that happens.
I think I’m going to start updating this blog more often with musings, instagram photos and film photos I’ve yet to edit.

Never Looking Back (2012).
Jun 28
“never looking back” short film preview from months ago. shot in late february, now it’s almost done!
got fired from the commissioned script project 1/3 of the way through. Sad that I don’t get paid but happy I have more time do something I actually enjoy.
going to Taipei Taiwan in less than two weeks. will probably shoot another film while I’m there. anyone with interesting idea for a short film that can be shot in two days or less?

from now until mid-July, I’ll be occupied with a script I’ve been commissioned to write. but last night, I smoked some trees and was able to make a second cut of don’t look back and now I feel pretty good about it. not saying that I think it’s a good but that there’s nothing more I can do to improve it in editing.
so now that I’m down to fine-cutting, sometime in the near future, between finishing the commissioned script (July) and pre-production on late spring early summer (Aug), maybe I can go in the studio and do ADR, color correct, record foley, and mix sound. not likely that I’ll finish as I also work about 30 hours a week at an corporate job but it could happen if I try really hard. I hate to have to do post on two separate films come September but maybe that will be the case. Oh yeah, I guess draft one of the feature script is not happening until this Fall.

thinking about scene 1. should she tell him? if she doesn’t, the next scene of her looking out at the city and feeling trapped, won’t be explain or make sense…
must find solution

I have to promote myself better. I don’t like the thought of putting old work on the internet, naive amateurish stuff from way back. But I don’t think I have a choice in the matter. Just lay it out bare and be proud of how far I’ve come along?

Don’t know who soderbergh stole this shot from but I’m stealing it from him for my next project.
