LA

I’m in Los Angeles taking part in BU’s LA internship program.  The plan is to get some hands-on experience with feature film development and to see if I like it in LA.

Boston Post-Marathon

I missed the Boston Marathon because I was shooting my scene for directing class.  But I didn’t miss this.

Editing

My film came back from Fotokem and I’ve been editing ever since.  I’ve been trying a few things that are new (to me): Cutting on Avid and starting the edit with the ending sequence and working my way to the front.  Being a Final Cut Pro kind of guy cutting on Avid is somewhat of a pain.  Starting with the end and moving back to the front seems to be working in my favor.  The photo below is from that ending sequence a couple days ago.  I’ve made significant progress since then.  This excites you.

Faux Spring Break

It’s Spring Break here at BU.  But, I’ve been shooting movies the whole time so, no, it’s not spring break.. Not for me.  Of course amongst those movies was my own film Happy Anniversary.  It’s a dark comedy about a man trying to divorce his wife on their first anniversary.  The shoot was one of the best directing experiences I’ve ever had.  I still have to send my film to the lab for processing so perhaps my tune will change, but I still feel pretty good about.

I could have used the vacation, though.

Snow Falling on Boston

Last week BU had a snow day.  This week the snow actually showed up.

School’s Out For Winter!

There is allegedly some sort of storm for the ages heading towards Boston so school was cancelled half-way through the day.  Yes, I’m rocking out to School’s Out by Alice Cooper.

Filmmaking: It Don’t Stop

And the filming continues

Boston Again

I made another trip to Boston to put down my cash/money for an apartment.  As has been the case recently my camera is still broken and I haven’t replaced it so I don’t have any fancy pictures to show you.  So…here’s a street (commonwealth avenue):

It’s done.  I have officially accepted Boston University‘s offer for admission into their master’s film production program in the school of communication.  Come September 2nd I am back to being a student.  For two years.

Then I’m back to being a layabout.
