i've been shooting zombies

After two weeks of having a blog, I now remember why I've never had one before: I feel my life is too mundane to post on the internet.

It probably isn't. I spent the entire weekend shooting a movie that features a zombie as its main character, getting in to zany situations like being refused service at a grocery store and having a tea party with a little girl. I realize most people don't do things like this for school. They have things like tests, quizzes, papers, and... uh... research papers? I don't know, I haven't done "real school" work in about a year.

Most people assume that because I don't do "real work", I don't do "work". But see, the thing is that making movies is hard. Every wonder why so many shitty movies come out every year? They're hard to do well. Not many people are talented enough to pull them off. So in the quest for achieving this talent level, we film students work our asses off for months at a time to produce 6 minute projects that no one else will ever really care about. Mike and I already have one under our belt, and we're 2/3 of the way through another. I spent 8 hours this weekend completely trashing an apartment to make it look like the inside of a zombie's house. Beats papers.

In other news, I am currently in possession of a DVD master of Mike's and my first film. If anyone would like a copy, please let me know, and I'll get you one.

I'm also going to work on posting more often. When weeks go by between posts, the pressure for each new post starts to build. My belief is that when posts become infrequent, they must increase in quality to make up for lack in quantity. (This also assumes people read this blog, which is likely untrue). If I post more often, then each can just be my normal, garden-variety level of shitty writing, and the pressure's off. See? It works.
