Seems as if the rest of the world got into this yesterday. Not so much in my neighborhood. I did and for over an hour only my solar lights in the vege garden were on. I sat drinking wine and eating crackers and cheese in my office. Quite pleasant, actually. Though I have to confess for the hour leading up to it… I just couldn’t shake in my mind the “lambs blood on the door” …
… I came across in the archives that may or may not have appeared on my blog before.
… but with the recent re-design (or if you don’t have an account there) you probably missed it. Anyway, here is Hamlet’s FaceBook news feed. Pretty funny. I have to thank my friend Laura for first posting it. (Hmm… a Twitter feed for Godot next?) As of this writing… since I posted it… at least 6 of my FB friends have re-posted the link. That’s how the viral thing begins on the interwebs. Let’s hope …
… I put my mug in the microwave. I then went about the business of getting Mum her breakfast. Once completed I went back to the office, sat in front of the computer and thought to myself, “Boy, this would be a perfect morning for a coffee.” A couple of hours later I returned into the house to heat up Mum’s lunch. Pop open the microwave and my mug of coffee stares back at me …
… but today it’s back to work. Primary shooting has been accomplished on the video project… though there is still some pick-ups and minor shooting still to do. Hoping all that will be accomplished over the next few days. In a meantime there is a lot of video to review, mark and upload before any editing begins. It’s all about groundwork. Once all that I need video and sound-wise has been filed in folders… the …
In a few days America will have a new president. APJ and I were talking a couple of days ago about America’s fondness for initials when referring to their leaders… FDR, JFK, LBJ,… just to name a few. Now if only his parents had chosen a different middle name of Middle Eastern origin like he has now (Hussein)… like say for instance Rafique, Rasheed, Rahman… we could have had a (real) BRO in office. I …
… where there is a lot to do but is (pleasantly) absent of stress. Though (being the cautious optimist) I am sure this is just an illusion. I am knocking it out though… bit by bit. The shoot has gone well. There is still this weekend to go and 2 more episodes. I’m actually enjoying myself with it and I think that cast and crew are too… unless of course they are better actors than …
… but I really can’t talk about it. No, really… I can’t. It’s for a client… so, I hope you understand why I can’t talk about it. I can’t even say it’s called ZEROS… or for that matter that it’s not 1 video but 7 webisodes. No, I can’t even do that… so, don’t bother asking. All I can say is… I’ve been shooting all weekend… and even shot some today. Please… no arm twisting… …
But I thought I’d blog a bit anyway since this (blogging) gets my engine running. I have scripts to crank out and more pre-production work to do. This includes a balls to the wall shooting schedule for this weekend. Let’s hope it can all be accomplished with panache. Oh, BTW… some folks have uploaded “The Story of India” on to the net. Granted the video quality is not the greatest but HERE is Part 1 …
