K is the Kick in the butt I apparently needed!

Well, you know how hard it was for me to figure out the k scene right?  First the shoot from hell.  Then the insane search for a date, actor, and shooter for the re-shoot.  Thanks to Bob Stefanov, I was able to get a great duo, Matt and Brian who I worked with long ago, to shoot and edit the K scene.  The plan was to have them shoot it and bring it to Devon but they explained that it would be much easier for them to work with the files on their own editing system.  I said OK, I'm sure Dev could use the break.  So yesterday I went to their studio and we put together the cuts for the K scene.  Next up was sound.  Usually I'm there for every single moment and we do it in one session.  To be doing this the day after the shoot was rare for me.  Matt took the footage and planned to do the audio clean up last night.  I really thought I'd wake up to the posting of the JKL but it was more like late afternoon in Ohio. OK, so that goes against all that I learned about posting on youtube but live and learn, right?

The last scene that gave me this much grief was the G scene.  I hope this doesn't mean every four scenes I get a huge pain in my tookus.  I'm not that into it.  Yesterday I was talking with The Jimmy and he said, "I'm waiting for the post that says you just did a scene and learned nothing".  We both chuckled.  That's not going to happen any time soon.

Also, I recently lost a few gigs that were going to contribute to my bills, gas tank, and fridge and the grand total of money lost is ... $26,000!  OUCH!  Is that insane or what?  I really made the error of adding it up and now I so regret doing the math.  I truly feel that other opportunities will fall into my lap to replace that money but as I pay for all of the goodies that come up during my project, it was untimely to say the least. 

Don't wanna end on a sour note, never do.  Hmm, so what's good?  Well, the J and L scenes are definitely good and the K scene is much improved.  I'm going to finally eat vegetable fried rice for lunch today!  I've been craving it for about a month now so I just hope my lunch partner doesn't expect too much conversation because Miss Pettigrew is going to eat and wait for the email that says JKL are up and it's what's happening!  Have a beautiful day my peeps.

WAIT, I almost forgot.  My sweet behind the scenes angel, Carla, told me about Kickstarter.com.  It's a website that helps projects like mine get financing.  I submitted to them and after a couple of tweaks got their approval to launch my project on their site for investors!  Isn't that great?  I have to create a video that describes my project.  I could just post the original video about A to Z but I think it's a bit dated.  Hmm, creating another video that has to be edited with music (like the samples I saw) is not what my energy is into right now but it looks like I have no choice.  I am so sleepy and hungry.  I gotta get it together my peeps!  Any ideas you have for something clever, that looks mass produced but takes little effort would be welcome.
