Setting Sites

With the exception of a brief interruption for the purchase of a new/used motorcycle, I've been working on what comes next.

- Ideas & Brainstorming
I'm working with Tom and Eric on a 5-minute short that's aimed at being done by August 1. We've been meeting intermittently and are in the idea phase- each bringing a few concepts to share and see what grabs us.
- Planning
Communicating with Ben and Patrick to keep the fires warm for Portland. Took some great location scouting shots this last weekend of a possible site. Got to think about SOUND with that one- how to isolate an actor's audio...
- Research
Watching some different flicks, seeing a few shorts, looking at different shot, composition and techniques to help bring something together as far as "voice."
- Practice
Still shooting for Mark at BMAC - the first round of footage looked great; we shot last night, and I think that this latest footage will blow the first set away. Can't wait to hear what Renato has to say about it...

I wanna make a cult film.

Some good ideas about taking pictures...
