Woke up mad early and went to a film shoot for my friend.
Ended up shooting this scene for about 11 hours. Was quite worn out and tired by the end of it. Shot a time lapse of most of the day's filming at a one second interval, looks pretty cool. Will be up on Vimeo sometime this week.
Had a party at the house. Was pretty fun, played a bunch pool and cards and hung out with good people and listened to good music.

Thursday
Had History and Aesthetics: New Documentary class where we watched the Werner Herzog film Grizzly Man. It is a tragic film that tells the story of a man within deep conflict of man vs nature. Still pondering on how I really feel about it.
Had a good Mega Slice.
Went to the Dryden and saw Steve McQueen be bad ass again in The Great Escape. Seriously nothing matches watching films on 35mm there. Damn its good.
Rehearsed lines for a shoot tomorrow.

2sDay
Rode Bike to campus.
Got to class, no one was there. Went to the computer to make sure it was the right room. It was. Confused. Found out it was cancelled after contacting some people in the class.
No class at all.
Went and bought 10 books for 2 classes. Bad idea being on my bike and hauling that all back.
Rode back home.
Went to Jitters to meet up with peoples then back home to play pool.
Read Science Fiction reading assignment. Was just the boring introduction of this anthology book discussing definitions.

REVISED: version of Comedy Show highlight reel
Here is the revised highlight video from Chet Wilds Comedy Showcase a few weeks ago at The Comedy Club in Webster, NY.
MUNDAY-
First Day of class for my Super Senior Year at RIT
Woke up late.
Drove to my Literature: Science Fiction class. A bunch of nerds in it. (including me)
Lunch.
Went to some meetings and tidied things up.
Went to Arts of Expression: Shakespeare on Stage class. The teacher is Colonel Sanders.
Went for a 5 mile run.
Biked back to school, went to the gym, went to my friends place, played Rock Band and some poker, rode my bike home in the dark. Some pretty sweet sights in the dark covered in fog lit by the moonlight.

Sunday Sunday
Cleaned my bike for a while and got it pretty spotless.
Went and saw the new Jim Jarmusch film The Limits of Control at the Dryden. As a minimalist film I feel like it should have a minimalist review. It was very interesting and different as what actually all went down. The music was sick. Beautiful Cinematography and Spanish locations.

FIXED MY BIKE! WOO WOO.
Went grocery shopping, saw a midget. always awesome.
Went and saw the British comedy In The Loop at the Little Theatre tonight. Definitely recommended for anyone who likes political satire. The film takes place right before the invasion of Iraq and it follows various government members of the United Kingdom and the United States as they bumble through their petty problems and a little thing called war. The acting and dialogue is top notch. Every line just tops the last. It's no clean affair either. The Brits in this have some of the foulest mouths I've heard in a long while, and by golly it is delightful.
Then I watched the 2006 film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. It was terrible. Not scary, pretty lame, just dumb, and predictable. So why did I choose to suffer through this film? Four words. Jordana Brewster and Diora Baird. There is a god.

Went to the bike shop to help out a friend who got hit by a car on his bike.
Pretty sweet 5 miler, explored some different places in Mt. Hope Cemetery. Saw a bunch of Civil War era gravestones.
Went to the Dryden and saw a beautiful 35mm print of The Magnificent Seven. It was the first time I have seen the movie and enjoyed it quite a lot and was very thankful I could see it for the first time in that format in a theatre. Seriously the Dryden is legit awesome. It was just a top notch Western in every sense. Great story, great acting, great cinematography, and great camera movement. Steve McQueen and Yul Brynner were such bad asses. And most importantly a great adaptation of Seven Samurai. Can't wait to see The Great Escape at the Dryden coming up this coming Thursday the 10th.
