APRIL 6 - I'm CRANKY

I've been in the edit suite for about 9 hours now..... with nothing to show for it. I have been having ridiculous technical glitches all day. Stupid things like the computer not recognizing the firewire cable. Or Final Cut Pro thinking there isn't enough memory available, when there is a plenty. I'm trying to output a simple 87 minute film and I've been here for 9 hours and haven't been able to get past the first 5 minutes without something going askew. I'm ready to get violent. VERY FRUSTRATING. Makes me remember fondly of the days of editing on film. Like the time I cut Citizen Kane with Orse. Those were the days. I not really nostalgic, but I used, man, I used to be back in the good ole days.

Also, I started this blog, with urging of my partners, to hopefully open a line of communication with people... perhaps maybe even 4 or 5. So they could ask questions about the process, the film or past things I've worked on, like the Ginger Snaps series. So for anybody reading this... ask away. I'll try to answer. I would rather write about something someone wants to hear, instead of rambling in my own way on my own dull topics. Hell just look at the pictures below, tennis. Geez, I don't even play tennis, tho I do like those cool pix...

So please.... feel free to ask away.... I'll try to answer....
