I Changed My Mind...

April 16 2007
I thought I disliked directing and liked editing.

I have changed my mind.

If I am truly passionate about a project and feel confident about it, I think directing and I could get along.

Meanwhile... editing is tough... ha ha... I still like to a degree, I mean, it's really neat to put everything together, but it sure is super frustrating. So maybe that isn't the direction I want to head.

I'm starting to think the writing/producing thing is really for me, and possibly some directing... but not so much editing... I just have these stories in my head that I want to share...

But then again, I do like the control... hmm... well I guess I have some time to figure it all out. I might turn a couple of my summer projects to other people for editing and see how that works out for me.

Speaking of summer projects, I think the first one I'll be working on is a soap opera based on the drama of Facebook. The second will probably be a spoof of various movies. After that or between those two I might try a serious music video.

Oh yeah, and does anyone know a super flexible place I could work at for a second job (for the summer only)? I would want to work only like 10 to 15 hours this week, want a few weeks in the summer off, never/rarely ever work weekends, and avoid food and retail at all costs. Yes, I am asking for the impossible. So do have any ideas...?

The job you described doesnt exist. If you start taking out some of those requirments, eventually you'll come to "remotely humanly possible"
