grr randomness in my head need to type , becuse i’m stressing

I got to sleep last night. I hate my cell phone. I woke up late though i lost my ID. Yes that’s why i called matt, i was going to ask if i could meet you somewhere to pick up my spare. I found my id, i barely made it to class not like it mattered most of my classmate saw the matrix last night and wondered in 20-30 minutes late. Any way. I’m nervous about this last shoot. Being that i has no location. I might just use Montgomery building parking lot. If all else fails. . So i have to take out the camera today. Were going to have to shoot. On Saturday i think. It’s only. 5 more scenes. I’ve becoming very wary about this film and really think it was a bad idea. I wish it were over. I’m pissed at myself. For even talking it Matt last night. I really just wanted to go to bed. But I’m a net-whore.Sigh. Open invite to the matrix this evening though. Not like you read my journal any more. I am pretty much going because I’m writing a paper on the effects. Although I’d rather. Do LOTR, i love that movie i love doing, digital coloring. I actually had to do some of my own, in Avid, on Monday, one scene, with. The man VS machine was too orange so i had to dial down the blues.I think vinny hates me.Last night, i got another e-mail from Mo. the guy i’m working with on the cell game project. It looks like we might actually have a company by, march. That would be nice. I like making backgrounds for him. And I’d really like getting paid, either way. The backgrounds are nice because i can, make them quick, and pretty, and there fun to do. I also like, having my work showcased. And it’s really neat. That I’m actually doing some thing, within my major to an extent. Although not so much, now. I was forced to switch from computer art to visual effects. It sort of worked out better i get the classes i wanted to take as requirements instead of electives. And the old major had pretty much screwed me out of. Matte painting. I can’t wait to have Pro. Tan again. He is probably the coolest Pro. Here. Although, i love SuAnne Fu, and Housher, even Gokhan has his, cool points. Mostly because he has that P.H.D., and way.

this last weekend

This weekend.

Thursday:

All my actors and crew split on me. I spent the rest of the night. Running around SCAD-vannah to try to find, replacements.

First we ran into. Andy, at Turner house, Matt was talking to him. (Matt of the golden tongue.) Anyway
Andy agreed to do Sundays shoot. I had found Gary. In the byte, earlier and he also agreed to play a generic Gov. official Sunday.

That evening. We decided to wonder down near the film fest well i wanted to any way hoping one of the video /film majors working might be open for the weekend shoot. We didn’t make it that far however. We found Jamie in front of marshal house in his confederate uniform.
Matt and i were joking to each other about the sort re-enacting their ass whopping. (We’re northerners.) Matt started kidding with him. And he was cool
I jokingly asked if he wanted to be in a video i was shoot over the weekend. , We at some point brough up that we were al Irish, and the next thing i know, he says “come to McDONOUGH’S and lets talk.”

Yeah-good news.

(and that is my hang-out bar , .. )

Well Jamie bough us drinks.
He is the coolest person ever and agreed to be my other,
more reluctant hacker.
Which is the other main roll and requires being there every shoot. I was so happy. .

That night Matt and i got a bit drunk .
it was also the best night we had on the town first night we went out that didn’t end in a fight.

Friday;

Friday. I skipped my fieldtrip i woke up very sick and just wanted to lay in bed.
I was at Matts house again.
I was freting so badly over this film, mainly because i had lost so much crew.
Monica had let me Borrow her laptop in exchange for some set up work Matt is doing on it.
Thank you Mon!
And JC agreed to help me shoot. On Saturday, JC is long time buddy from NY, Who is a SCAD graduate student down here with me.

Saturday.
I could not of asked for a smother shoot.
It was amazing. We got all our equipment on time. JC is an incredible AC, 9my cameraman) the shoots went wonderfully. He showed my a few tricks with the GL1 that are going o make future shots even smother.
We got some great out takes and I’m very happy with Saturdays shoot.

Sunday.

I lost JC. [Pout]
Chen was my AC.

I’m sorry she is way to wishy-washy.
I did most of the camera work, because she seemed to of forgotten every thing she learned in classes about how to handle e the GL1.
Any way Sunday’s shoot also went off well
All my actors showed up.
And everything worked great.

(We had Andy as one of my generic government officials.
he played the part of agent smith to a tee.)

All in all it was a good weekend shoot.
