Figured it was about time?
So everyone's doing it, and I'm such a follower. My friend Steve had made reference to my in one of his posts and I thought to myself, "Adam, isn't it about time to reveal your unsubstantial thoughts and beliefs on the web?" Yes. Yes, it is.
The aforementioned, Steve, is doing a lot of the scoring/composing for my short films. He has this really unique styling that I am in love with. It's like a mix of my favorite musicians: M83 and Radiohead, specifically. I mean the kid is good. I know the short isn't going to be a Tribeca award winner, not even Athens International Film Fest quality but I know the music will be phenomenal, which makes me happy.
I'm a little let down though, I've been going to college for 3 1/2 years now, and this whole time I've been working on random films, television shows, writing, lighting, art directing, directing and even acting-so I could direct this spring. I found out yesterday that this won't happen. My teacher doesn't have the faith, and in all honesty I'm not sure many do have that faith in me. This so-called "many" does not include the people who put in a lot of time and effort for me in last quarters short film. If any of you read this, I wish whole heartedly that we could work together again and if I did, I'm sorry I let you down. You are all amazing, and such great motivation for me.
Now I'm Directing Photography, I operate the camera. This isn't new to me, but it's not something that I've given my college career to. I have big shoes to fill in one of my best friends here at school, D-Vo, he's the man. I'm going to give it a fighting chance. Maybe I'll find out that I'm not too bad at holding a camera? Who knows? I won't get my hopes up again.
Hey Steve, if you're reading this, thanks for everything again and Rilo Kiley does make me want a girlfriend, okay? haha
I'll leave you all with this:
"i used to think if i could realize i'd die
then i would be a lot nicer
used to believe in a lot more
now i just see straight ahead
that's not to say i don't have good times
but as for my days
i spend them waiting
crash sites keep me up at night
impact division it splits in two
directly underneath you" -riloKILEY
