Ultraviolet...

...is so bad!

omg I mean it looks really really awesome, but the script is waaay weak and it takes itself too seriously.

I mean it tries!

it honestly tried to have a plot. But everything is so exagerated that in the end, it just doesn't work.  Nobody's gonna buy into it, and you can just feel the writer making it happen.  it clunks along from one fight scene to another, and the fight scenes just aren't good enough to save it

I'd rather see Milla Jovavich be hot and kill bad guys in a movie with a plot, like THE FIFTH ELEMENT, or RESIDENT: EVIL. Those movies kicked ass! 

A REAL mystery

I've noticed my dress clothes have begun to go missing, it's really really wierd

Well, first off, I have a favorite tie

That's probably a little strange in and about itself

but it's gone missing, along with two belts, one vest, and one half pair of jolly roger dress socks

I'm pretty concerned, cause dress clothes cost me a and I expect them to last for a long time. It's pretty upsetting that they don't. I can never find them when I need them. I also can't find them when I don't need them, but by then I'm not looking.

I had a nice silk tie. I miss you little buddy. Come back to papa...

btw, loving my clothes this much doesn't make me a homosexual

and there wouldn't be anything wrong with me being one anyway,

but I'm not

I just like wearing nice clothes.

2-9, 2009. Army jacket, Blue jeans

So me and Jess broke up

it wasn't anything unpleasant, I just told her that it wasn't working, and she just kinda understood.

It worked out.

She's not upset or anything

we're just gonna move on.

I kinda asked her if she'd be down for friends with benefits

and she kinda sounded down

it's a vague area, but who knows...

we could both use something to carry us into the next relationship.

Big Bear Shoot

So yea

Big Bear is really awesome!

I'm working on an independent feature called "Silent Night"

I don't know if it's gonna be a great movie, but it sure is great to be on set again and the crew and cast I'm working with are pretty great

I don't think I had this much fun at ICF.  All we do is shoot movies, eat, sleep, and drink. This morning call time was 5AM. We wrapped that night about 10PM.  I'm totally exhausted, my feet hurt, I don't get to shower a lot, and I'm bailing on a lot of other responsibilities. And I feel great about it.

I feel a little strange. Some of the students there are graduates or senior students at Fullerton. And a lot of them are interning as PAs

I'm an 18-year-old, college freshman who barely drives and is a little clumsy. I'm a grip. I'm not far up the totem pole, but I outrank the PAs.  I really hope this leads to me getting jobs in the future.

The DP is SUPER awesome. He's this guy Ian, and he's pro. He really knows his shit and he knows so many little tricks. I'm learning a lot just by following him around and doing what he says.  Me and Erik can almost tell what he is going ask for, we get all the shit ready.  Then he'll go and do something crazy and make the shot even better.

Hopefully I'll be able to take these experiences and chock them up to good times and general filmmaking experience.  I just wish I could think better. Like more creatively. I really feel inadequate in that way. I feel like I just don't have the storytelling ability to  really use my technical knowledge to it's full potential.

I hope to be putting up more blogs and pics from Big Bear before I leave for sure on Sunday. It doesn't give me much time.
