On my first viewing of Citizen Kane...
…I saw a gripping story of a powerful man who’s only desire was to have his childhood back.
He went to many lengths to have everyone love him. On his terms, of course.
Welles was indeed a genius. Every time he was on screen he controlled the room.
Expertly acted. Expertly directed.
This is only part one of my dissertation.

Research, research...
In comp 2, we’re doing a research paper. I’m writing about acting and directing, simultaneously. Since it’s something I plan on doing, it’s good for me to do a paper on it.
The question: “Is acting and directing a good idea?”
I need 3 points. This thing has to be 10 pages long. Each portion of the paper needs to be 2 pages long (including the points, intro,...

upset because I’m different and
I don’t like to rhyme
doesn’t happen all the time
but I can’t fall into line
unleash me
but I’m no mad dog
I beseech ye
don’t be a ball hog
delouse me
frame me
and call me a fraud
I can’t stop
staring at this light
if I look away I know
I’m bound to catch fright
man
I hate being right
but maybe...

Music.
I think I talked about this on my Twitter. And I quote:
Attempting to be more clever in my lyric writing. Not sure ‘soggy wet sandwich’ is very sly.

Producer. Not me.
Had to bust my butt to get a location for tomorrow’s shoot. I’ve got all but 1 actor. If worse comes to worse, it’s looking like I might act and direct tomorrow.

Getting your Facebook hacked does not mean you left it open on your computer and somebody posts that you’re coming out as a homosexual.
Getting hacked is finding that you’ve been spamming everyone’s wall by posting phishing sites or mass messaging your friends with it.

Hopeless Romantic.
I would like to write a short film that has something to do with romance, but at this point, I don’t have a good enough idea. I have the drive, but no idea. I might end up just making fun of the whole “romance” thing.

I'm failing Cinematography class. D:
This week, I’m going to be DP/Operator for a short scene for cinematography class. What we’re doing in the class right now: we’re split up into two teams (one team shooting on the 5D Mark II; the other shooting on the RED ONE). We switch positions on these crews (last week I was 1st AC). This week, we’re shooting 5D (I am excite).
I did my first script analysis tonight....

We don’t need another short film about it. For that matter, we don’t need another poem either…

I fail to understand why the brass section of music in Inception is used as a source for comedy. Sure, it’s loud and booming, but why is that funny?

I can write, okay?
I get pretty antsy when I let people read my scripts. I’m expecting both sides of the spectrum, feedback-wise. I feel it now, even. Or is that hunger? Nah, it’s hunger.

WatchThis was for storyboarding. This was an exercise for us to create a set-up, anticipation, and pay-off/resolution.
I should sound design this at some point.
