Twenty-Ten.
Anybody have any new years resolutions?
I just plan not be so handicapped by my laziness.

Hollywood
I've recently had the pleasure of experiencing my first dreaded Hollywood experience. If you didn't know, now you do, I'm in the middle of shooting a music video for this band called What Seas What Shores, a local band in Windsor. My hometown.
I'm pseudo-friends with the members of this band, although i respect the music and thoroughly enjoy it, I got this job because of our relationship. The star of this picture is also a friend of mine, friends since high school, friends till the end. He recently, the friend in the video attended a social thrown by the members of the band, he subsequently got drunk off hard liquor and asked some cheeky puma to polish his fireman's pole unbenowest that she was already spoken for by a good friend of the band.
tension tension, druuummm roll
Fight ensued. Nobody is happy with high school friend.
And I'm left with a few, in my opinion, impressive reels of footage with my friend being the center of attention. I don't really want to get rid of it. So I made my apologies on his behalf and mine, however the band is torn, with the majority in favour of him not being in it. So what do i do? I say fuck it. I'm going keep working on it with him in it, because my idea is to just make something so fucking good it will impress these people no matter what, it will transcend all of the bickering and hypnotise them. That is the dream. Besides the guys a mate, what can you do?
If not though, I'm willing to make adjustments in posts. I was thinking of darkening the face or something. I'm open to all suggestions really. Throw a dart attached with a piece of a paper with an idea written on it at the dartboard. You get three darts for free.
I'm shooting some driving scenes today. I'm going to include a from the gas pedal action shot, inspired by a shot in Godzilla vs. Megalon, that I vowed to put into one of my directorial efforts.
Anyway, this company is flaming zeppelin and I'm going to ride crashing and burning into the ground.
