Going to see Couch Soup tonight. Got more details, it’s on at 8pm every night til Saturday. Tickets are $12/14 each and you’ll laugh. Or else.

Also discovered this youtube series called Chad Vader. Most amusing stuff. First episode of several…

Plus, as a big fan of Back of the Y, I encourage you to download and watch the trailer for The Devil Dared Me To and laugh and look very much forward to seeing it. Awesomely obtainable here.

Bad day today.

Shot off one exterior scene which was no problem and then moved onto shooting another scene on a bus, which was done really quickly and within five minutes. Awesome, until we broke for lunch and realised near the end of it, that we’d left a camera bag full of leads, tapes and discs… thankfully no camera, but the rest of the day was spent stressing, chasing buses and making phone calls all over town. So far the bag is still at large and if you see a blue camera bag full of stuff, please report it as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, I personally had a downer of a day. Spent most of the morning to try and muster up the balls to contact someone and when I did, got no reply, which made me really wonder how things had gotten so bad between us when I’m still not even sure if it is. How is it possible for one to simply cut off someone seemingly right out of their lives? And how does that justify what was previously good? Well it put me in a weird place this evening after everything and I ended up randomly drinking and eating with a guy and his parents I ran into in town. Of course, the liquor didn’t help my mood, but at least the strangeness of the situation put me off from some proper thinking.

Anyway, here’s a trailer for an upcoming kick arse movie I know many will appreciate.

And here’s Bill Gates on the fantastic Daily Show.

The internet hates me and I have a bad tendency of forgetting to pay my internet space bill. But filming chugs along as usual and I write this post knowing it wont be seen til at least another day or twos time.

It’s like I’m talking to the future!

Anyway, tonight the show reel is finally approved and posted to youtube. Viewable either here or just…

Just watched. Brilliant. A tad confusing and totally open to interpretation. But brilliant.

Tomorrow, flatmate Sean flies back off to England. I pack more stuff. And we discover the thrilling conclusion to whats under the sink in ‘cleaning up the house’.

My pants bubble with anticipation.

Also new trailer for Zhang Yimou’s Curse of the Golden Flower here. And old, but much better quality trailer here.

And we finally start shooting today… crazy.

Been wearing rubber gloves and animating today. Hand is sore. That’ll teach me write up a two minute animation sequence.

Anyway, briefly link to the trailer for Zodiac, the new film from David Fincher. Looks to be an awesome film, plus it’s also filmed on digital, which will be interesting to see how it’ll turn out, considering how much Fincher loves his use of dark lighting and such. Downloadable here.

I am definitely looking forward to seeing this film. French production. Aimed squarely at a mature adult market and it just looks freakin’ awesome. Trailer can be downloaded here.

Back after a three week holiday and dear god… If it were a two week holiday, maybe it would have been easier to get some motivation going on, but no. Three week holiday, and now I am a lazy slob that can’t be bothered with an ever increasing workload… either that, or I’ve just got to get used to waking a tad earlier than one in the afternoon again.

Anyway, shooting another lousy assigned short this week and I’ve been cutting up teddy bears, pulling out stuffing and stitching them up with black yarn. Over and over again. This can’t be healthy. We’re talking late nights, sitting in dim light and just cutting up these cute little bears to serve as props in this less than average short we’re assigned to make.

Ah well… okay… at least I get some pleasure from the trailers to Farrell’s new film, Talladega Nights. Can be found here and here.

Trailer for The Prestige is finally out and holy crap, this looks to be a helluva lot of cool coming our way. Trailer to be downloaded here.

The new US trailer for Michel Gondry’s “The Science of Sleep” is now out. Horray for trailers, cause I’m now even more excited about watching this at the film festival than before.

Downloadable trailer here.
