You may be wondering (yes you, both of you) about my definition of “rebooting” a site when I haven’t been arsed to update it in two months. So! Here’s an update on just why that is:

In the last two months, I’ve been attached to three different film projects. Given that this is what I intend to do with the rest of my life, I’m quite content to spend all my energy on such things before anything else. Those projects are:

- A web series that, I think, will be online by the end of the month. “I think” because there were apparently some legal issues with the Native population (sadly, it didn’t involve blankets) last week which forced one episode to be canceled completely. We still have two left, so, maybe I’ll be able to share that eventually. However, there’s very much a reason I refer to it as Project Clustfuck- the concept is, for lack of a better term, retarded, and three-fourths of the class cannot participate in the weekend shoots (jobs, having lives, etc) which causes all sorts of lovely scheduling and pre-production issues. But aside from that, it’s dandy.

- A documentary I wrote and directed concerning Yaak, Montana. It’s not eating my timestuffs right now, given that I’m not editing it, but it was for most of February/March. We also shot it in full-HD while it was actin’ all wintery up there, so it. Looks. Gorgeous. And I will most certainly be spamming it online when it’s done.

- A short film a friend of mine did locally. Shot on film, which is quite an adventure in backasswards technology. It has been a hilariously long weekend that ended today with our crew of about 12 crowding a sidewalk and having a gun waved around. It was fantastic.

I also pitched a senior film for next year, had it handily rejected, and have since worked the system into allowing me to do it under the guise of “independent study”. But yes- it involves monsters and people stranded in the forest after an apocalypse. Sounds like win to me.

And throw onto that a healthy dose of other classes with homework and regular exams, a job five nights a week, and you have the very reason I usually choose to collapse into a fit of House or Atlantis during my nightly hour of free time.

But there’s light at the end of the tunnel, so I believe there are actual updates coming. In the meantime, I’d like to say Happy Easter with the following trips down memory lane:

March 27th, 2005 – Happy Easter!

April 14th, 2005 – My public flogging of a mentally incapacitated commenter on the above post.

And here’s Raptor Jesus:

Good day.
