I'm done fucking around

There's a separation between inspiration and frustration regarding the field they hope to work in. For me, it's film. I'm running off the grid in order to finish my three projects that I've been putting off via "excusing" myself by circumstance.
To hold myself accountable, I'm releasing daily blurbs of what I'm working on:
1) "Felix" (9 part series)
2) "To Noah" (short film)
3) "After the Wolf" (short film)

Every night before 12am, I will be posting updates until all three of these projects are complete.

Greetings all. I adore exceptional writing, and am a huge fan of "The Leftovers" series by HBO.
I was re-watching and researching last season, and had to stop at a pivotal moment where Kevin Garvey eulogizes Patti after (wont ruin) the climax of their interaction (S1 Ep.10). As a reverse engineer Creative Producer/Editor, I'd like to give my two cents in such a wonderfully thought out scene; of which, Actors Justin Theroux and Christopher Eccleston dominate our empathy with their on point domination of script.

Kevin's acceptance of his situation. His "missing shirts" outlining a past life of confusion. Patti about to be buried which represents a previous tension.



Matt's character development in play. Though the act is brutal, he holds fast to his ideals.














Two hands initially holding the bible. Kevin is in control until he realizes that this is not just another task to simply exist.















Still reading.

The dirt to showcase where Kevin is in this present moment

Then two hands grasp the Bible when he begins to understand why Matt chose this passage.











Matt sees Kevin's knowledge

Kevin sees the point of the passage




But does Kevin fully understand? 



How do we know Matt is not equally putting on a face for confidence in his own "control" of acceptance? 



Regardless, we see a movement within Kevin that is not a situational stimulant.






And we see exactly what we are moving on from




Haza, Kevin actually is human. He does feel the departure, regardless that he has been defined as a non-feeler on the side of community representative



























Take all this for however you'd like. Given the situations we've experienced, I see no better transition than that of proper writing. If you've been following the second season, I implore you to look into the first again. Please see below for video.

play with what's in your pocket - hopeful tech

The update to iPhone includes a predict-a-word-like-sidecar. I typed the word "I" and followed accordingly. Maybe my phone is more optimistic because it's in the know? Either way, heck yus yus for the unapologetic Buddha/Self Realization on; go have fun with yours.

Project Screen Grab Continue

I found these via Vimeo's contest submission page, and was blown away at how this technical presentation (heart transplant experimentation) could be rendered into such a color/texture forward presentation.

There's a moment where a project must come to an end. The below is the result of such a time:

Phillip Seymour Hoffman

These are all images I've found online. There are moments in everyone's artistic endeavor to which the acknowledgement of a superb journey forces us all to look at ourselves. I urge any reader to look past the debate of addiction and realize the success of an individual who succeeded regardless of personal tribulations. Drugs are not fashionable.

Having a focus despite the peripheral is what can be taken away from this sobering event. Please, let us celebrate an individual who's exceptional contribution to trade affected our standard of quality. May Phillip Seymour Hoffman not be subjected to some undermining, self indulging false wisdom. Be well everyone.

None of these images are referenced. If you're salty about it, vuggen google it and get the bug out of your arse. Few wake-up moments like this happens to a generation.
