with time to spare

Last week I did another 48 hour film fest and we finished our project with an hour to spare. It felt good to turn it in a bit early and then sit and watch as other teams scrambled to make the deadline ;)
Overall I’m very happy with what we shot, the story isn’t the world’s greatest, but for 48 hours its pretty good. The visuals however are amazing, we have a very real chance of winning best cinematography.
I got word earlier this week that we did make the top 20 screening which is tomorrow, I’m really excited to see how ours stacks up against the competition.

Here are a few pictures taken by a friend during production. Note: This probably won’t look right on Facebook, follow the “view original post” link above.

All of a sudden I’m busy again. I’m not sure how it happened, but if I’m not in class I’m working on something and if i’m not doing that I’m rushing to finish something else :|
My current internship looks to be winding down for a the time being but I got another one this morning so it looks like I’m staying busy for a while. The company I’m going to be interning for is one of the better production houses here in Phoenix and it looks like I’ll be able to learn some new stuff from some very talented people.

I’m headed to Vegas this weekend with a couple of my roommates. We are going to watch a heads up poker tournament and probably chill around some casinos. I don’t really gamble and I’ve never really played any casino games but I’m planning on taking a little bit of money to lose at a card game of some sort. I’m really not a bad poker player as far as amateurs go, but I’ve never played at a casino so I’m sure I’ll be asking a lot of questions. I’m also looking forward to just watching some poker, I’m totally down with a weekend where I do nothing but sit and hang out. I don’t really see my roommates often either, so a whole weekend with them will be good.

Obama is kicking ass these days and I couldn’t be happier. This picture pretty much speaks for itself.

I’ll post some pictures from Vegas if anything abnormally interesting happens,
