super sunny today… it took us about an hour to set up the crane…

then it started to rain… hard

I was the only grip on set… it took us about 45 minutes to save the camera, monitor and break down the crane…

… i look like a wet mop -_____-

routine storyboarding has turned into an intense drawing session… it’s almost 12am, and I’ve only got about 9 panels done…

time to put down the pen -______-

learn from my mistakes…

If you’re a freelancer, or seriously considering doing freelance work for a living, get your contracts together, and make your clients sign them before you do any work…

i’m not saying all people, but a good number of them will fuck you dry, use your shit, not pay and you won’t have a legal leg to stand on…

feeling a bit stupid at the moment… -________-

lesson learned…

"If you’re a poor kid, or you can’t afford to work for free, and people are saying you should work for free, that’s going to favor kids who can do that, whose parents can pay their bills for years. It probably has an impact on how diverse the film industry is,” Williams said."

– John Williams, the founder of non-profit Reel Works Teen Filmmaking, which mentors underprivileged youth to prepare them for work in the film industry, said he thinks that the practice is skewing the entire industry away from equal representation.

Sooo... looks like I can't watch a movie straight anymore...

  • Outside the theater... pumped to(finally) see Prometheus
  • Me: Hey mom, this movie was shot on the RED...
  • Mom: And?
  • Me: I'm just curious to see how it'll turn out...
  • Mom: *Eye roll
  • *watching the cave scene
  • Me: ugh... look at all that noise
  • Mom: Jesus, Candice...
