What a busy boy

Ms.McBride was kind enough to give me an extension on my self-portrait and WOA#3 challenge so that I would more time to work on my more immediate projects.

So my deadlines are now:

Wednesday, a French quiz

Thursday: A DBQ is due as is my animated short "Between Gentleman" and my live-action short which is still untitled.

Friday: an SQ3R

and Sunday I have to finish and submit my college application to Emmerson.

to finish my short animated film I have to stage everything, put in credits, then censor credits for submission to the Young Arts Festival and in sound and music.

As for my live action short I have to complete two more scenes of it (which I am completing today and tommorow) and then I am editing it at the speed of light and calling it done.

...I'm getting an anxiety attack just talking about all of this


Can I get a Hell Yeah!

The Word of the Weekend is...

I twisted my ankle, and I have a lot of work to do so I guess that's convient. Lets see this weekend I need to finish my WOA challenge #2, push forward with my animation which I thought I might be able to finish this weekend but I also have to work on college essays (who needs sleep amirite?) and study for some school! So I'll have a lot to do and maybe I'll be able to start my self portrait while I'm at it.

I think I need a shave& a haircut
...but that will have to wait

College app, school, life vs art

maybe it's not fair that I compare the two like that, but having to spend a weekend writing papers, working on my Common App and studying for an AP don't exactly move along a process. I got practically no work done this weekend on my animation and that's really upsetting because this was deadline week. I feel overcumbered by school and its hardly even started yet. Maybe if I was able to get more work done on my animation I wouldn't feel that way but it doesn't help things when I don't.
I need to start my self portrait I just need to get a photo of myself (I'll take care of that in class) I'm thinking of an abstract comic it should be pretty interesting.

I'm going to get this out of the way now and say it so nobody keeps telling me this later IF they actually care to read this I WATCH A LOT OF MOVIES
this weekend I saw four movies
A swedish film: The Virgin Spring, directed by Swedish landmark director Ingmar Bergman
A French film: Henri-Georges Clouzot inferno, a documentary about Clouzot art house mess and how that whole ship burned down (thank you Mrs.Grimm for reccomending it to me)
An American film: The Social Network, its really good. It's funny, clever and intelligent
and a Belgium Film: A Town Called Panic,

got to see it, have to see it and glad I saw it!

All these ideas I have in the back of my head for future shorts keep getting weirder and more out there. In a lot of ways I like the abstraction and the ability to experiment, but at the same time I want to make sure I don't isolate myself.
I think I might also want to do a western, that would be cool.


Okay funs over back to school work
