GPOYW - December 2, 2009

In the midst of a S16mm shoot, sleep deprived, sick, but happy edition.

Boneless remixed by Grizzly Bear
originally by The Notwist
(via copycats:undertheradar)

“The new treatment casts aside the original track’s upbeat piano for slightly catastrophic dronescapes, hurried drum hits, and forlorn woodwinds. it’s perfect music for a late fall day” —UtR

I definitely like the original way better, but this isn’t too bad. Reblogging because I love this song, I love the Notwist, I love Grizzly Bear, and I like how dark this sounds.

(via karenabadmfa:Two down, three to go.)

This is the last (hopefully) film that I will Direct/DP. It’s really difficult and entirely way too draining to do both at once. I learned my lesson from my first thesis shoot and actually got an operator this time. It’s so eye-opening to have someone operate while you DP…I need to get out of this auteur mentality and learn to give up some of these responsibilities that I take onto myself so I can focus on more important things like cinematography/theory.

…to be continued…

…and then I parked the car in the middle of the single-lane road on the edge of the cliff so that we could look out at the vast expanse of emptiness that altered the horizon. In those 15 minutes, the sky transformed into every colour we could have ever imagined. Our eyes had not lied to us. I shifted gears to drive and we continued as if nothing had happened at all.

That moment belonged to us.

I’m wearing this shirt right now. It’s hilarious.

Dino: OM NOM NOM NOM!

The cupcake, Popsicle, and ice cream cone are NOT amused.

Currently listening to the Fantastic Mr. Fox soundtrack. Alexandre Desplat tuggs at my heart strings.
