post shooting depression

It happens to the best of us. you work on a shoot for a few days and you get used to the action. Then when things slow down you find yourself with loads of free time.

I'm glad I don't get affected by that.

School starts next week. ehhhhhh. I gotta get to work. On school and as many projects as I can. damn I need to get busy.

I'm glad that all my favorite current shows are back from the winter break. I need to catch up on everything now.

I can't wait till Breaking Bad's new season comes back to tv.. probably in the summer.

Bidness cards

Haha. my rubber stamp finally came in. So that means I'm doing a little factory line in the office. I finally have bidness cards. I cant even recall the many times I needed one. so unprofessional.

I think the hard days are done

This shot was taken at around 10pm on day 5. it was about 40 degrees out here. the cast and crew was freezing their asses off. This reminds me of when I worked on this film called Streets. That was like 2 weeks of cold weather.

the dance studio. We're done at the theater so the next few days is gonna be here.

This shoot is going really great. All the really difficult parts should be over with.. Sifting through the photos, I really like this shot here. I shot this for the entrance of the theater doors. Most plays have stills to let them know what they're about to get into. I was in the copy shop printing some of these photos out and some of the customers and workers were complimenting me on my photography. Its funny cause I never really had any interest in photography but it seems that I'm doing a lot of it these days.

On my day off

To day is the first day off from filming. I shot the last five days, and then I shoot for the next 6 days. Then theres like a week after that sometime in february. I am so tired.

Out of all the people on set, and besides the child actors, I am the youngest person there. All the film crew guys are older gents with loads of experience. The funny part is that theyre all a bunch of character too. One of the cool parts of production is the lingo. Everything has a nickname, it just makes things easier to say.

I had to drop a deuce on set so they're like "Where's Jaime?".. "Oh, he's getting batteries"

So today is all about rest, catching up with the world, cuddling and Shawshank Redemption.

Heres a link to the facebook photo album for all the pictures I post

day 1... I'm dead

I am too tired to write about the first day of shooting... So I'm just gonna post these pictures

Captain Hook's other job is being a 2nd AC.

Peter Pan!!!!

Tiger Lily

also this is what happens when you put the craft service table in the same room as the equipment room. The crew goes nuts.

Also this is the rigging for when Pan flys. We're all gonna have a chance to fly when we wrap shooting.

bored

Rock, paper, scissors, lizard, Spock.

I recently rearranged my room. I put my punching bag back in the office. Pretty cool. I don't even know what I'm talking about. hmmmmm. I am so bored. I start working on an indie feature on wednesday. I gotta prep for that.

I watched a news report today about a middle school in Oxnard CA, and during the standardized testing schedule, a class was watching a movie and during the movie a 7th grade girl gave an 8th grade boy a blowjob... of course the news report said it was "engaging in an oral sex act".. dude, we all know that guy was getting a hummer. But the crazy part is that the teacher just ignored it and some kids even recorded it with their phones... WTF. kids these days. I guess 12 is the new 13.
