Update on Life
I haven't updated because I've been pretty busy lately.
I took the DGA exam on February 11th and am pretty sure I did well enough to get to the next stage. I'm not just being arrogant, it was just that easy.
I'm still working at American Express and I'm now also working with the creator of Rocketboom on a website. It looks like it's going to be ready to launch soon, I'll write more about it when it eventually does.
In addition to those two jobs, I have two websites of my own in development. One about movies, the other about food. They're both slightly top secret so I'll just leave it at that for now.
When I was snowed in last Sunday I finished editing the rough cut of my color sync film. Things are finally rolling on the damn thing and some friends are now working on the score. I'm not entirely happy with the film but reactions to the rough cut from people who had never seen any of the film seems to be good. There's a lot in the film that I'm proud of and a lot that I find embarrassing, oh well.
Hmmm... what else...
Movies I've recently seen that come immediately to mind:
The Brood - Liked it.
Garden State - It has its moments but it's mostly ugh.
In other film related news:
Footage of Werner Herzog being shot in the stomach by a BB gun of some sort during an interview. His reaction to being shot is classic and if you skip to the end he shows off his wound and in the process shows off his rather colorful boxers as well. Oh Werner, you never cease to delight me.
