I had this really odd series of dreams last night. It started when I was fighting/wrestling with Patrick Stewart in the employee lunchroom of a grocery store. There were folding tables and hard-plastic chairs all over the room and it was lit with those terrible fluorescent lights. I got the impression it was kind of a wrestling thing, as I didn’t feel mad at him and didn’t get that vibe from him either. It was odd, because I kept considering that it was a good idea to let him win, since he was my boss / superior in some way. The dream then flipped over to me trying to get into a small, three-wheeled car, similar to the little electric cars they use in heavily populated European cities. Except, this car was egg-shaped and was pretty much too small for me to fit in it comfortably – like it was...

Another Day of Shooting
Millard and I met up with Kathleen today and went over her character, discussing the psychology and motivation over some mid-day lunch at Denny’s. We talked for quite a while, then proceeded to Millard’s where we got everything organized and Kathleen got into wardrobe. We got to the location and set up, and shooting began around 4:00pm. Everything went very well, and we would have continued be we started to lose daylight and, subsequently, battery life. All in all, we shot about 70 minutes of footage, and I was very please with the shoot overall. I took a look at the video since this was the first exterior scenes of the project, and was quite happy with the quality. As the sun ducked behind the trees and direct sunlight on Kathleen was not apparent anymore, I re metered her and adjusted the camera which gives a pretty uniform look to...
Done
The stills have all been scanned and processed. There were a total of 289 stills totalling 337MB (all JPEGs).
Stills Still
Millard and I spent several hours Friday going through stills for the DVD project. We came up with some really great ideas too, and elaborated more on the story line. After we were done with the pictures, we conducted a Sir Millard Mulch photo shoot. Yesterday I spent about three and a half hours scanning, cropping, adjusting and cataloging the stills for the DVD. After my arm began to ache from all the clicking, I decided to call it a night and played some WoW for a couple hours. I’m gonna continue to scan today, as I’m about 1/3 of the way through the stills. I hope to be able to burn a CD by dinnertime tonight. Also, John is doing great. Shauna's down there right now helping him do some grocery shopping and such. I'm sure it won't be long before he gets cabin-fever again. Sick Thought of the...
New Writings Area
I wanted to mention real quick that I've added a new area to the site called Writings where I'll be adding all my sick and normal (sigh) short stories. The new Writings area is up under the Digital Archive.
