Saw Drag Me To Hell again at the dollar theater. Was just as enjoyable the second time around.
Had a pretty awesome slice of Pepporoni Pizza.
Went to the last day of Boulderfest.
That was about it.

Saturday Day
Today I successfully crashed my bike twice, well the second would be considered more of a wipe out, but nonetheless, came out pretty uninjured minus a couple bruises and little scrapes. It wasn't that bad in that I was riding my beater bike, but i still have to do some major repairs to get it to function again.
Went to Boulderfest again today. Saw these ginormous mastiff dogs the size of bears. The bands today were alright, but it was all moved inside shortly after i got there from the monsoon rain. Again the sound mix was way off, but it still was pretty cool to have a music festival in my backyard practically.
Had a couple people over for beers and pool tonight. Some local comics came by to hang, heard some pretty funny stories and overall had a good time.
Saw the Tron Legacy trailer today. Thoughts? Well, I saw the original film last year in History of Computer Animation class, I'm sure it was pretty rad if back in 1981 if you were hopped up on something, but in 2008 in an uncomfy chair during an 8am class I thought it was pretty boring and lame. So I really don't care even if Jeff Bridges is some magical technological man who doesn't need to wear socks and shoes.
Oh yeah, I came up with a new catch phrase the other day: "Tell it like ya smell it." Awesome, i know right?

Friday was a long long day
Woke up at 7:30am, first time in a very long time being up that early. Worked as prop master for this shoot for an instructional dvd for this company www.vuzix.com. Was pretty straightforward, nothing too crazy.
Then came back home and went to Boulder Fest, saw some pretty sweet bands actually, the best one was called "Club Sandwich aka: Big Boy Soda and the Yucky Snakes". All the band memebers would rotate instruments and vocals after each song, they had a really energetic and sweet style.
Then went to a housewarming party with good hors d'œuvres.(i just looked up how to spell that so it should be correct).

Today was a Wednesday
Watched Mean Streets today by Mr. Scorsese, was pretty sweet. The pool hall fight was awesome. The end is pretty jarring but the more I think about it the more I like it.
Ate two slices of pizza today, one was good, one was not so good, but good enough.
Sam Raimi singed on for World of Warcraft. I've never played the game and must admit that I've done my fair share of WoW bashing over the years, but I'm definitely interested in the cinematic version now with him at the helm. My hope is that he goes bat shit, blood spewing, raping tree evil dead hard core on it.
Tim Burton's Alice and Wonderland teaser trailer came out today. Looks pretty cool, I mean, my mind isn't blown, but I'm not unimpressed, but nevertheless, I'm not going to judge an entire film on a teaser trailer, but yeah, I'll def be seeing it when it comes out in March 2010, which seems like an awfully odd release date for such a big movie. You have the household names of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, and who the hell has never heard of the Alice and Wonderland story, I'm pretty sure even most of the Amish have, so why is it coming out in March, and not May/June/July? Odd i say.

The Last Actor: Filming Day's 9 and 10
It's Tuesday morning and i've been up since 7:30 am. When i woke up it felt like it I had slept in to 2 in the afternoon. But no. It was all from going to bed at 8pm last night, catching on the calamity of the past weekend of filming.
Saturday: Shot the very first scene of the film up at Ellsion Park at 6:30am. Was up early since I slept in the wallmart parking lot in my car. It was really beautiful there with the mist in the morning and the green trees. I'm glad i waited til the trees bloomed to film this scene. Went home and took a nap then went to a little party then hit the road.
Sunday: 360 Miles later we arrived at destination, got what we needed, then drove back to Roc City to film the bathroom scene. Got back at 1pm and shot the bathroom stuff at 2, went good, then got some pretty sweet montage footage, then went and got some midiocre chineese food.
So yeah, every scene is shot. The only other thing I have to shoot is some pickups and some more montage stuff. Now starts the six months of post.

The Last Actor: Filming Day 8
Shot the last two scenes sequentially of the film today.
Had some major sound issues. The hallway we were shooting at at the village gate had an entire construction crew in the next room with band saws and more funness the entire time.
Both scenes went pretty smooth none the less though. Early shoot tomorrow. Rock and Roll.

The Last Actor: Filming Day 7
Short day today, just shot the flashforward scenes. All went well. Made up some funny stuff on the spot that should work out pretty well.
Got the footage back from Kodak today as well. Looks pretty swell. It's nice to have an editor. Just three more shoots then we'll be all done-aroo.
