I went today to London with one of my flat mates, and we accidentally walked past Great Scotland Yard, where they were shooting The Children of Men, a futuristic film about the extinction of humankind. Well, when we were approaching the area, we asked one of the crew if we were allowed to walk through, since a lot of police cars were there, and a ( Read more... )

I just saw the film "A History of Violence" by David Cronenberg with Viggo Mortensen, Ed Harris et al. Before this week I hadn't really registered the director, but now that I'm checking his profile over at IMDB, I do realise I have seen some of his films, inclduing eXistenZ and Spider, of which I liked neither very much. I've been hammered with ( Read more... )

I'm opening a post for production notes of our first project titled

( 'A Journey'. )

I've never heard of anything like it before!!! I love my cable modem back ( Read more... )

I never knew that transferring files from one computer to another could be so tedious. I can't get a network connection between the two computers to work, so all I have is a tiny USB drive to help me in the process. And I have a lot of images, and now Photoshop has frozen on me as well, and I have to try to make 50 thousand BMP images make it onto ( Read more... )

I bought a digital camera today.

Oddly enough, this will turn into a funny story.

When I got home, and opened the box, there was no camera in it. I tell Pal, "You know what? I'm actually almost amused ( Read more... )

Gah. Gur. Eugh.

I can't put my finger on it, but something is feeling mighty weird. I am quite not feeling like myself. Weird. Weird.

I'm still awake, but not only am I delirious, I am now also obsessing.
