Indio

My Coachella tickets just came and one of them has Gabe's name on it. Well...not literally.

Eye Twitchin'

Oh, and in an update, I got the storyboards done. I had to meet up with the DP a bit later then I had hoped, but once we finally sat down to do the storyboards we breezed through them. The previous night had been difficult because we sat down to write the storyboards with ‘the group’. In other words we tried to lay down the storyboards with the actors, art director and writer. Which was hard. So there’s a lesson for me: it’s easier to just get the people actually involved in establishing the shots to work through the storyboards.

Daft

I'm so daft I didn't even notice it. Heh heh...

Torapher

I forgot a "G" in cinematographer in my post yesterday. It's corrected now. Brock, I hope you didn't panic when you didn't know what a "cinematorapher" was!

Storyboards

Brock H. Brown - Director/Cinematographer
For this first project anyway. I was originally going to be an actor but the group instead decided to put me in the directing position.

Today I've gotta meet and work with the DP (director of photography) and work out the storyboards.

BHB Regular

Sweet, I'll be a Brock H. Brown regular.

Brock, I hope you get a cinematographer part as well, or director. Sounds like fun. After we do our next monologue, we get to do scenes. I've been looking forward to acting with someone else. It's lonely doing a monologue. We also have to watch a play, and review it.

Mr. Cellophane

Excellent work Gabe! I knew you’d get a good grade, but an A minus is just great. With grades like that I just may have my own personal John C. Reilly.

Last week in my telecommunications 100-class (digital multimedia) the teacher broke up the class into crews to prepare us for our first filming. Tonight we’re going to assign jobs in our individual groups in order to prepare for our in-class production. Actors, a Director, a cinematographer and a two-person editing team as well as plenty of other roles need to be assigned. I hope I can snag a part as a cinematographer or even the director. Anything would be fine though just so long as I’m not an actor. I’d probably be better suited to some job behind the camera.

A...minus

We were graded in Acting class for our monologue performances. I got an A-. Not too shabby for a first performance, eh?

There's word that Braid will be doing a three month reunion tour this summer. You can't even begin to imagine how elated Brock and I are about this, unless you're a huge Braid fan as well. I had the opportunity to see them three seperate times. None of them happened. Finally...redemption.
