One last hurrah!

Went to Target today, it felt a little like home for some reason...

I can't believe that I only have one week until my class is over at USC. A week from now, I will be packing up getting ready to leave to drive to Santa Cruz for two weeks of CAMP! Let me tell you, I love being in the film world, surrounded by the at that I truly adore, but I really am not a fan of living in South Central LA. I'm really getting tired of all the concrete, smog, traffic and general lack of green around here. And it's only been 5 weeks! I mean I know someday I'll be living in LA to pursue film as a career, but hopefully it will be in a different part of LA, like Burbank or Beverly Hills or something. (yeah right, like iIcould afford to live in those places...) So needless to say, I can't wait to get to beautiful Scott's Valley. Seeing the ocean and the forest is going to be amazing after living here. I can't even imagine sleeping in those cabins. I lie in my bed here and I hear traffic in the distance, cars zooming by, people yelling, the buzz of all the neon lights around me. I look forward to lying in a cramped sleeping bag in a bed to short for me surrounded by 8 little buggers (ahem, children) in the cool air listening to nothing but pure silence in the beautiful Santa Cruz mountains... But hey, I'll enjoy what I've got while I'm here...

I am shooting my final project this weekend, which I am directing and I'm really looking forward to. I finished the script with Tony today, and I think it is turning out pretty good. It is a short, sweet little music video that should make you smile when you watch it. At least, that's the goal. I'm still trying to come up with a song for the video...so hopefully whatever I choose will fit the story well.

Sad news: My digital camera crapped out on me and I had to send it home so that it could get fixed, so no more pictures from around here... which, if you know me well, is very sad for me. Good thing this came at the end of the program after I had been to WB a bunch.

I should put posting my commercial here very soon, so look for that.

Allright, our last real day of class is tomorrow. We're starting off with another guest lecture from David Weitzer, the guy who did marketing for the original Star Wars, E.T. and Alien! So rad! (He's the guy who came up with the tag line "In space, No one can hear you scream." for the Alien movies... pretty sweet.) He's going to be talking to us about the marketing for our WB movies...so cool!
