we've been in la almost three and a half months. it went by so quickly. i'm quite excited to make a return to that land of iowa. to see those whom i haven't had that chance to see in quite some time. enough with that. that shall come oh so soon.

i'm still working little bits. it's like 1/4 time at both places. i'm hoping it'll pick up for a few days next week. it's work. i'm thinking, after a conversation with a director who worked at cbs for 20+ years, that i should try to do some storys without script, and with a lot of footage. so that i can hone my storytelling skills, without scripts. you see, almost all the work i've done has been with a script or something to follow, and i'd like to work at editing without anything to follow--i make up what to follow. i think that'll help my storytelling abilities as well.

i keep having scenes/ideas pop into my head that i think should be in a screenplay somewhere. but i don't write them down, or do anything about it. that's not good.

we arranged all the seating at the wedding reception last night. it was a good time. i'm very happy with how it turned out.

'ts all

i dig the concept of honing storytelling by not using a script. it really blows the doors wide open and allows you to go in any direction you want. i always find it amazing how so many different things can be said with the same footage.

who are we sitting by?

no seriously. it's a good table.

have you seen any of the spoof trailers, like brokeback to the future or shining? if not, you should google 'em.

Hey jack, i'd definitely say editing stuff w/o script is a really good exercise. It totally forces you to be super creative, although it can be absolutely infuriating and frustrating.

12 days, eh? wow.
