Life is Good

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

Been having a great time. I am back together with Virginia. Things are going well with the show. Enjoying my time here in Champaign. Saw Super Bad last night. It was a good movie. Teen Comedy with a little heart. Not the greatest by any means, but it was worth watching.


Week 6: Work Related

Monday, August 27th, 2007

Final Cut group, set building, and a visit to WILL. Not a bad week. It is interesting to see what I am doing from a new perspective. I like the independent stuff. I know that whatever happens it will be up to me. Good or Bad it is on me. I think that those are [...]


Work and Play

Monday, August 27th, 2007

Electrician came by and got a lot of stuff ready for the show. I have the lights up, but need to do some finalizing with the set before I do a final lighting set up. Should have everything working tomorrow for out run through tapings and then finals on Tuesday and Wednesday. Everything is still [...]


Work, Work, Work

Saturday, August 25th, 2007

Just been working today. We got a bunch of finishing touches for the set. I will start lighting tomorrow, and hopefully taping on Monday and Tuesday. I think that it is going to look really good. I love it when a project comes together.


Paperwork and Blues Band

Had lunch with Farzo and talked to many of my former co-workers. It was weird being back in the building. It is [...]


Tornados, TVs, and Tons of Fun

Friday, August 24th, 2007

Back down in Champaign. I will be doing some shooting for the video show that I am producing. Looking like it is going to be a great show. I had a lot of interesting things happen on the way down here. As I just get on 57, the clouds roll in and the sky turns [...]


Final Cut User Group

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

Went out to the Chicago Final Cut Pro User Group Meeting. It was great to see people who really knew what they were doing. I learned a lot just by being there. I had always hoped for the CU Video group to be something like that. Good demos, good discussions, new warnings to look out [...]


Another night of Classes

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

Improv and Writing are both going well. The writing is quickly becoming a very interesting class. I can see the steps that we are taking and I am starting to actually write things that could turn into sketches. Went to the free improv session at the e.t.c. It was again fun to see what the [...]


I’m Back

Monday, August 20th, 2007

Back in Chicago, but just for a few days. I did the stupidest thing tonight. When I was unloading the car, I unlocked the back door of the van and left the keys in the lock. I walked out of the garage and the door locked behind me. I was stuck in my back yard [...]


Week 5: Champaign Movies

Monday, August 20th, 2007

Went to Champaign, watched some movies, and worked on a doc. Saw more comedy. Like is still moving at a quick pace, with so much happening every week. Seems like there are a lot of changes going on with me, and they are just accelerating.
