Dimitri and the Seven Layered Cake
C - Jared, an awesome dedicated filmmaker, with great patience when it comes to his writer...
L - Ben Unguren's office, F-342 in the HFAC ( I think)
O - A pack of Subway cookies, whose richness causes many a stomach-ache
S - Trying to decipher Tom Lefler's crazy notes!
A - Sleeping during an Ansel Adams documentary in the advanced directing class.
T - You can't please everyone, especially the Media Arts faculty.
From the sound of it, there's only one thing on my mind, and you'd be correct. Script, script, and more script. We're getting there though. We're convinced to see this through, even without our third person. We're convinced that if we hold our own and stand our ground based on the story that we'll be able to get through to the next round, but we'll see...We'll see...
In other news, it was Migraine city, after I almost threw up this morning on the way to class, due to an awful smell that reeked of vomit. I think it made me sick. Then, in an attempt to feel better, I bought some cookies that looked awesome from Subway, and they proceeded to make my already upset stomach even worse. *sigh*. Although, I was able to nap during the Ansel Adams doc (awesome, by the way, or what I saw of it anyway), so that was certainly nice.
Oh, and Jared's awesome. He's the director of the piece I'm writing. I'm glad he's patient with me, and my ramblings. It's good to have a director that cares about the process, and isn't super concerned with the story changing so frequently. Phew!

Update....
So, .mac was a bust. I had a hunch it would be, all things considered. While designing the site was fun and joyful, it was still a pain in the rear to update, and I could only do it from my laptop, thus leaving my poor desktop sad and lonely.
Alas, here I am, back in the Blogspot saddle again, trying to make amends for lost time.
Let's get going!
News! The producer for the project I'm writing dropped out today. Yeah. I know. Apparently he wasn't happy with the script's direction. The project was his idea, and so I suppose he deserves some kind of creative input, but the director and I have come to find his participation to be increasingly diminutive. He started not participating in our script sessions, and he would generally not read our script when I'd send it his way. I had a hunch that he was upset, but it frustrates me that he never made that clear to me.
I'm not mad, don't get me wrong, but it is annoying to see him leave like this, pretty much jeopardizing the entire production, which we have to re-pitch to The Powers That Be this next Tuesday. I loved his original idea, which is why I signed on, but holy land! Why wasn't this made clearer to me? Insecurities are abound in my mind, mostly because it is my script that has caused him to leave. I'll stand by my script, mostly because the director is fond of the direction it's heading. That makes me happy, but again, frustrated.
So, enough complainin'! On to the next, I reckon. Now we're in a mad dash for a producer to pitch with us come Tuesday. If there's anybody out there who actually reads this, and who would like to produce said project, by all means, let me know!!
