This really brings me back to the old days … when all I needed was a microwave, some popcorn, and things to set a camera on to make a movie …
The new Filmfights is live and there’s a slew of amazing entries!I really really love Griffin’s late-added entry. Watch it for a good catch-up on FF history …
Sick of Writing Your Name On the Milk? ▒FLY SOLO▒ A TRUE BACHELOR PA →
I MUST LIVE IN THIS BACHELOR PA.
YES I AM SICK OF WRITING MY NAME ON THE MILK!!!
Small freakin' world
So my stupid Time Warner internet has been out for like a month, and I’ve just been too busy to actually call and get it fixed. Since we have a backup connection it’s not a huge deal, but Time Warner is much faster than crap Verizon DSL.
I go through a weird automated help-robot which (duh) fails to fix my problem. They transfer me to an operator, who checks my signal and determines they’re going to have to send out a tech. The whole time I’m thinking, “man this guy has a strong midwestern accent …” he informs me they now have a faster service called “Wideband” and I do want to sign up? Heck yes I want to sign up! We set an install date, wrap up the call, and just moments before hanging up I ask - “Hey, so where are you from?” so which he replies “Oh, I’m calling from Wisconsin.” I laugh. “I’m from Wisconsin! That’s funny! I’m from a town called Eau Claire - where in Wisconsin are ya?” to which he replies, somewhat stunned … “I’m calling from Eau Claire.”
Holy cats! Immediately I respond … “The Charleton Group?”
“Actually, yes!”
Holy cats! “I actually worked there for a year! At the mall across from 53!” “Small world!”
After re-iterating the increase in my bill each month, he asks me if there’s any other questions I have.
“Nah, just eat a Potato Ole for me” “Haha, will do Mister Johnson, will do.”
*click*
Small freakin’ world.
This kind of thing ever happen to you?
“All the Words You Can’t Say” The Laarks (via 99dollarmusicvideos)
This is a music video I directed for my friends The Laarks - a band in Wisconsin. I shot this on a 6 year old Canon SD400, lit with clamp lights, and generally did everything as cheap as possible to come in under the $99 budget. My friend Doig is a teacher and gave us textbooks and the location in Bed-Stuy. All in all, fun!
Gimme some love in the comments section!
Film Fights has been re-launched! (almost!) Check out submission rules for the Oct 2nd fight!
This is the “Making Of” video for the music video I directed that’s coming out tomorrow! (featuring my boy Doug Cheesman and youtube celeb Caitlin Hill)
I made it at the last second, delerious from lack of sleep, and I think it shows … which means you should check it out.
And ‘like’ it. If you like it. Music video tomorrow!
Oh, one note - when I said ‘tomorrow’ … yesterday … I actually meant ‘tomorrow’ … today. So that means it comes out on Thursday. But you should still check this out if you haven’t seen it yet!
