WDay

got up mad early.

Had a freaky time on the highway to the shoot. It was rainy in the morning and i started drifting around a turn at 65mph. Was pretty scary, but was able to steer my way out of it without any major trouble.

Was on a shoot for 11 hours.

Wicked tired.

SONday

Read all of H.G.Wells's The Time Machine today for Literature: Science Fiction class. Was a good read and way to spend most of the day. I was familiar with the story from seeing the 1960 and 2002 film versions, so it was really cool to read the original story and more importantly one of the very first credible science fiction novels.


Went down to Boulder Coffee to watch then perform at the Stand-Up Open Mic down there. Did all new material tonight. Just wanted to test out new stuff to see what works and what doesn't before the big show at Lovin Cup Wednesday September 23rd. Kinda nervous about it. Going to be pushing it a bunch this week and next spreading the word. Made a new poster for it tonight. Checkedy Check it out....

SatURday

Woke up late.

Not a productive day.

Almost got bro raped at a party. Freaking weird.

FRYDAY

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.
