The Brooklyn Circus

Oh no, it's another video!!!  I just really like what Ouigi Theodore said about style.

Wire Man

My apologies for all the videos lately.  But I have another today and this time--I made it!  It's more like a test for something that is in the works too.  Seems like there's lots of things in the works these days but hopefully they'll be wrapping up soon and then we'll start on yet another project.

Happy Valentines Day!

I like the idea of making a video to go along with a receipe posted on a blog. I think I shall try this for Brother Can You Spare A Dime. Conner and I need to get more comfortable with our video camera and some light editing. I think that was one of the various reasons that our Imperchorstra documentary didn't go so well this past year; we just didn't video anything after Dan left and then we lost all momentom. However, we've decided that it's really important to us to finish this project and dedicate to it Dan because we love him and miss him so much. So, it's most essential that we become more comfortable with filming. Maybe I'll try to do one of these cooking videos once a month...to give myself lots of leeway, just to start with.

The Imperchorstra Project

So we're almost five months into this music documentary project and we've made it all the way to upstate New York by way of Colorado and you know what, we have done absolutely jack-shit with this whole thing. It's so disappointing. We've lost Dan too; he moved in with his girlfriend and it's probably a good thing for everyone. He and I weren't exactly getting along very well...the enormity of the project mixed with the difficulty of living with a couple in a very small space would make anyone crazy, at least that's what I like to tell myself to feel better--for goodness sake, we got in a large argument over a spice rack. I mean, who the hell argues about a spice rack?! He also had some medical bills to pay and needed a steady job. So now it's Conner and I and we've run out of money. We're quickly making our way down to Chapel Hill, NC to stay with my folks, get jobs through the holidays, and figure out how we're going to pull this off. We're hanging out with a lot of art students in Alfred, NY and they keep telling me that projects never go the way you want; if it's easy then it's not really worth it in the end; projects only seem to really come together at the very end, otherwise it's a whole lotta mess during the interim. So I'm trying to keep that in mind and realize that's it's not over yet and the fat lady hasn't sung, etc, etc.
The plus is that we did get the one and only grant that I applied for! First one I ever wrote! Now we totally have to follow through with this for sure.
