I Met the Walrus

I went to the AA Film Festival last night and this was by far one of the best films there. It's John Lennon in an interview from the 60s where this kid randomly jumped into his room with a voice recorder. The animation makes me...well, it makes me happy. It's great and whomever gets to see this film is lucky as shit.

Go to the film fest.

WEBSITE!

Soooo, I know I announced it before when I got my website, but now I've uploaded much more than just the basic layout. All should come and have a visit. It's still not done obviously, but it's getting there!

Woop!

I'll Put You on the Streets!

I might be going crazy...

Had another crazy weird dream last night. I can't really explain the whole thing for many reasons, mostly because words can't describe it. However, I can tell you that Shia LeBeouf was there. We were in the mall hiding in the bushes (you know, the fake ones) because a monster was coming, we saw a bit of it, and in its wake there was a cliff type thing, another object it left in its wake was strawberries. Shia decided that it would be a good idea to figure out how to get a strawberry, and when he did, he sprouted wings. This is only like a two second part of the dream which was good and long, all like this too. CRAZY! Lots and lots of colors, which I hear only certain people dream in color. I should really get my dreams analyzed.

Yael Naim

This is my new favorite video. It reminds me of summer, and all of the fun random things that happen in the summer.

She kind of reminds me of Feist, especially with the freeness of her video.

A few things...

So, comforters, you know the things you sleep with at night? Yeah, try comfortNOT! No matter what, the tag always ends up at my face. Tickling, scratching, doing everything annoying, and it can't be stopped. I turn the comforter around, tag at the end of my bed, and it ends up back in my face. Some might say, well you probably just twist and turn enough in your sleep that it would go back the other way too. WRONG! Once the tag is at my face, the comforter doesn't shift, even if I sleep with it like that for a few days. Come on now universe, give me a break.

Another thing. Today, my alarm did not go off again, luckily I set 3. Two on my phone and one on my clock. The two on my phone, kind of woke me up, but obviously not well enough. I woke up at 10 am, guess when I have class. Yup, that's right, 10 am. I quickly threw a bunch of clothes on and shot out the door. I saw one of my friends from art school as I was walking down the stairs to the sidewalk, he was crossing the street, I turn out onto the side walk rather quickly only to find a patch of well hidden black ice. Now, I've gotten away with this whole year without a fall yet, but of course, on what ended up being one of the warmest days in recent months, I slip and fall. Right on my side, giant bruise awaiting reply. Luckily I took my computer out of my bag before I left the house, otherwise I would be in a much worse situation right now.

I've got a lot to do before tomorrow, I should probably get going. Kthnxbye.

Thesis Paintings

These are the paintings I've been working on all year. Soon to be all done and showing on April 12th. There is where you can see them in real life, but for now, here's some pictures.

Couldn't Help Myself

I love Elijah Wood, even when he's doing this.

Mall Walkers

So there's this movie called Mall Walkers that I'm workin' on for a film class this semester. We started film in the Summit Place Mall up in Waterford this weekend. We have to shoot during off hours so our schedule involves many all nighters locked in the mall. It's fun but extremely tiring. I'm acting as the production designer so I'm in charge of hair, make-up, costumes, and sets. It's a lot of work, but fun at the same time, especially once we hit and pass that point of insanity in the night. This weekend we shot the coffee shop scenes in the mall, here's some pictures I took during my down time, which is plenty, but only once we start filming.
The Coffee Shop

Rehearsing for the shot.

This is crossing the point of insanity.

We're kind of a big deal.

The actors, they get antsy too.

Sometimes you have to get on the floor for the betterment of your art.

We have fun with the simple things (read the sign)

This is our director...being a banana phone?

She could be a JC Penny ad.

Director + Dolly = Amazing

Eeeep!

I've got a website. Of course it's not done like everything else in my life right now, but I'm working on it, I swear!

I feel so professional and stuff. PROFESSIONAL!

I'm heading into the home stretch for school this year (or maybe for the rest of my life) and I couldn't be busier. I hope to be able to keep in touch with everyone, but I can't promise that I won't become a hermit. See you all in a month or two! Ha.
