I imagine this is what Cocaine is like. An excessive amount of something and when there’s a whole lot of nothing you reach for something to grab onto. But your ride is over. And so you have to have it again. You crave something going on. People around you, awkward conversations, random makeout partners to feel good again. A certain emptiness is there throughout but you don’t want to be aware of it. You are MOVING so it’s okay. And this ride you’re on seems like it will carry on forever. And then you get a glimpse of something static while you’re being carried to the top of the track. And you get scared it will be like this. But then you it drops you and you’re on your way again. Los Angeles has turned life from being okay with things into the exhausting downward spiral of the fact that you feel like you always need more. And more booze is on that list. if you want to ignore it all, anyway. I love LA but I’ll most definitely find love elsewhere.

Go, Dawg. Go.
I’m gonna start this thing back up again, me thinks. Might be a little boring but thaaaat’s alright. I’ll make sure and include a pretty picture in each one. :P
The re-kickstart of this blog was actually sparked by a comment from an artist. He seems like a great guy and I’m sure we’d get along. This is not bashing him - just more of a “I’ve heard this 50,000 times and now I want to talk about it.” thing.
I often get e-mails from aspiring or established artists with questions about software or whatever. We all learn from each other and it’s a really great thing. I love that about this industry and our openness in helping each other.

There’s a huge amount of curiosity for me with someone who, in this day and age says, ” I’ve wondered that for years!!” though. Especially such a well documented thing. There is no reason to wonder practically anything for more than 5 minutes (thank you Google, I love you), let alone years.
I don’t ever tell people what to do but as an artist or competent-persona-seeking person, don’t say crap like this hah. You come across like you can’t troubleshoot, research or figure things out for yourself. I’m not at all taken back by this as much as it seems but it is really curious to me how someone can NOT look something up for several years that has been frustrating them in almost every project they start.
For someone who is going to be working on films, I don’t know much about the history of them, the great directors or influential people in general. This is my starting point.
I’m researching every name on the list and watching every suggested movie.
It’s a little weird sometimes to remember there’s some other guy that looks kinda like me, even if he has been my brother forever.
Here’s my wallet that I bought off Christine for 2 dollars about 3 years ago. I have it with me daily.
