nope

this hasn't been the best week. a pretty shitty one actually

a best thing

a great thing about underestimated is the point when the people you do things for say "thank you", and all you want to mention is the places you messed up.  Being in the conversation with two people who consider thmeselves involved, who have yet both complimented your work, when thy try to dismiss you it is funny to be invovled in the point where the limits of their intelligence appears. Ask me more

filling up and killing braincells at the same time

This past weekend was amazing.  I'll leave that as a flat sentence; everything good that can come out of spending four days in a different city came about.  I met or spent time getting to know some exceptionally cool people, I worked artistically on a project that I will always be proud to been included in, I learned a hell of a lot, I was surrounded by great friends, and I fully enjoyed a wonderful city.  If I was killing or if I was filling up my brain, or even if I twisting and bumping up my body I couldn't get enough.  It was a bubble world where optimistic visions weren't weighed down by the realities of life outside of the bubble.  Despite all of that I was so happy to finally come home and sit down.  The fact of the matter is that I learned a lot about life by taking a break from it; not that there were many breaks, we all wanted to get as much out of it as possible and to make the most out of the time.  Once I've recovered from all of the "learning" I did while learning I'll write more about it, maybe post some pictures of behind the scenes video; until then just believe that I've come out of this better than I was when I went into it.  Nothing is more fun than learning and I learned a lot.

This shit is going to be cool

I just got from doing the lighting design for the solid gold's video for matter of time.  We got some really good footage; I am incredibly excited to see the finished product.  When people see this thing they will be impressed.  I am really excited, and I'm really proud of the work I did on this thing. I wish I could just go over and look at some of the raw footage, there are some truly killer shots.  Be excited.

Starting Tomorrow

The lighting for the new solid gold video is going to be done by me.  This shit's going to be cool, I am having second thoughts about not getting a smoke machine, but that can make continuity and editing a real bitch. This is going to be really fun. It's for the song Matter of Time, the one that mountain dew helped put out.  This past summer I drank a bunch of mountain dew, so by default that means I contributed to the budget.  I guess I'm an investor; this thing better make some money, I at least want to make back the money I put into it.  Here's a link to where you can download the song for free:
