In the spirit of comedy, I took almost five months away from this blog just to see if anyone noticed. As expected, they did not.<\/p>\n
In any case, there is a little bit to update. I wrote a new short called Love and Respect<\/span><\/a>. Bonus points if you can figure out the inspiration from the title. If I ever get to make it, I plan for it to be pretty stylized and hopefully awesome.<\/p>\n Ah, there we are. Reread the last sentence of the previous paragraph again. If<\/span> I ever get to make it. I’ve been, if not overcome, then certainly blindsided by a continuing comedy of errors.<\/p>\n The main concern has been entirely of my own doing, or at least is exclusively my problem. Aside from Love and Respect<\/span>, I haven’t done fuck all for months. I don’t know why this has been a problem; traditionally, I tend to take on a lighter workload in the winter, for whatever reason, and get a lot accomplished in the spring and summer. Now, though… nothing. For months. (Well, as previously mentioned, there was something<\/span>, but the point stands.)<\/p>\n Past that: still no actor for Transatlanticism<\/span><\/a>. The storyboards have evidently disappeared from public view, as well. The camera front has been no better. I waffled on buying the Canon HV-10<\/a> because if was missing a few key features that I wanted, chief among them a 24fps speed setting. So what happens? They release a new model, the HV-20<\/a>, that addresses every concern I have with the HV-10.<\/p>\n And then my source of funding runs out. So no buy camera for Full Contact Origami.<\/p>\n All of this has led to a monumentally crushing insecurity. I finally had to start doing stuff that normal people who don’t have to work for themselves in their free time do for fun. It’s interesting, I think. I bet it would be more fun without the god damn crushing weight of guilt that I should be doing something other than, say, playing Frisbee in the park or whatever. To alleviate the frustration, I’ve been rebuilding the Full Contact Origami site<\/a> as a way to feel like I’m getting something done. It’s been working so far, but now I’m almost finished, and when that happens, I don’t know what I’m going to do with myself.<\/p>\n It’s all very annoying.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the spirit of comedy, I took almost five months away from this blog just to see if anyone noticed.
