The premiere of all the music videos in competition including mine for "Wicked Smile" by Cast Of Thousands will premiere on Feb 20! For more info go to the above website! Back to editing, but for now here's a little treat!

So it's Monday which means I am alive and typing. Finished the Wicked Smile shoot! Pretty hectic, but I feel everything came together nicely. We shot at my friend Pat's work. Which brings me to a tangent.

You know when you have something crazy going on in your life and it feels like all these other events and problems just come up. Well that's kind of what making any film is like. It feels like 50 different things just come at you at once and you start getting this weird feeling like 'what have I gotten myself into?' Anyways that feeling always comes to me right before I shoot. This feeling of anxiousness and insecurity. Anyways, that's what it felt like the days coming to the shoot. I have to say, I love that feeling. It's like this voice that screams "you can't do it, you piece of shit". In the end it feels good to come back to that feeling and say "Hey, fuck you and see you next time."

Before I go, some thanks are in order to Marco my cinematographer, Jared and Jeremy my gaff and electric, Pat of course, all my actors, and Cast of Thousands.

Apparently the premiere will be Feb 20 at Root Division in SF. Let me know if you need more info.

Shooting Cast of Thousands "Wicked Smile" music video at the end of the week back in the bay area. Update coming soon.

I'm sitting in a coffee shop writing. How typical can I be? I swear it's the free internet that gets me to come here! And I'm loving their Chai. I'm at one of my favorite places to write, Mojo Coffee in Goleta, CA. I wrote two short stories here and seem to always have good luck here. Anyways, I've been MIA because I've been writing. I'm doing a little something different this time around. I'm writing two totally seperate scrīpt at the same time. You can probably tell that I get bored easy huh? ahah! So one's an older kind of romantic comedy in the same vein as LITC, my last movie. I think it's a little more straight up and less filtered though. I guess you get that way when you get older huh? The other one is a sci-fi thriller of sorts. Been working on that one for awhile, but since I got both of my outlines done for both, I thought it would be cool to write both at the same time. I'm about 3 weeks in the process and it keeps me real busy. I'll make sure to update you guys on any developments as they happen.

BTW, anyone run in the Nike Human Race? I ran in the LA one. If you were on of the 13,000 people let me know how you liked it. For me, it has to be up there with the greatest things I ever did! haha!
