August 1, 2009. Last Thursday, I went to the New Beverly Cinema to watch a new film by Jim Jarmusch; The Limits of Control. The pace and style of the film were right up my alley, which is slow. The pace was so slow to the point where the viewer could actually feel what the main character was going through. I'm in no way going to break this film down by points. But, i will say that I could understand why this film did not have a wide release. The truth, I don't really recall this film ever opening in Los Angeles. Because of the pace and style of the film, regular film audience would not have the patience and open minded enough to give this film a chance.. This leads to my film, Betty I am. During the film, I starting thinking about pace or tempo.. I figured out some edits that would make my film a little more pace friendly to the audience. Plus, the story of my film will be much more refine. And, hopefully by the end of the year my film will be presented somewhere.. Still working on that, every single day.
Lately, I been taking a B & W Photography Class and I love it! So, I'm always looking for opportunities to take pictures of the happenings of Los Angeles. Tuesday, I was a victim of the Nike-Lebron-James picture taking P.R. move. There was this small mini concert in culver city where a J-pop star (Kanon Wakeshima) was going to make an appearance for an album release party type of fiasco. Believing this was an awesome opportunity to take some photos and practice the art of photography. . After only taking one picture which you see below... A hand grabs the front of my camera, a female sony worker (yes, a sony product) tells me with authority that I was not allowed to take photos of Kanon. To make things short, after three songs ..the concert was over.. . The performance was very entertaining.. Another reason that I wanted to attend, its not very often you see someone using a cello instrument in a rock/pop type of act... And, just one more reason to throw out there.. I have a script in the works where it involves a female singer.. And, just seeing how things are after the show. It gave me a great perspective of the aftermath, clean up, crew working to strike down. How Kanon Wakeshima exits the building with her handlers.. It was quite helpful. 
The picture was taken from a website that offer images of inspiration....It just gives me mix emotions...So, I haven't been doing this for a while, and I haven't been writing the amount that I would like to. Hopefully, with this, it would kinda push me and get some things done...
This is a not so awesome entry, on writing terms, but the mind is really scatter.........So, this past week was a little learning experience, by talking and just by talking can improve on writing your dialogue. Picking up the little things, phrases or some slang words can be adapted to your machine of Dialogue making ( I just made that up, it doesn't exist).
Checking bases. Finally, got a lot of things done from my to do list, which always brings me up and more lively to life. In the food department. This new place open by my job.. LC B.B.Q & Burgers. I was highly impressed by the quality of the food. They make their own burger patties, their own! Even though I had trouble fitting the burger in my mouth, it was still delicious and ranks up there with my choices of one of the best burgers in Los Angeles. I still haven't tried their whole menu, but, soon.. The script has finally gotten some life, I found ways to make it more unique or something around the lines of kinda different from other films or stories... But that's asking for a lot though.. Took some time off this week to catch up on talking life tips with a friend while watching a Los Angeles Laker game. Reflecting on your own personal life and as well as day dreams, gives you a small charge in the creative department needed for this script or some kind of creative work. Soon as I'm done with the script, I'll give a small outline of the script/story in pictures. The pictures or photos give out an idea of the many influence for this script that I been working for three months. Finally played SF4! Street Fighter has been a huge impact in my life since age 9 or so, well, considering in gaming world experience. Was greeted by the great hospitality of hijaktaffairs & drunknconfessions this weekend to get my chance to play SF4. This upcoming week, is the Japanese Film Festival, buying my tickets tomorrow.. So may be I should have something up in the coming days. Or, not.... 
I heard this song on 88.9fm late night last sunday.. . something about it, just have to listen to it and decide what's going to come out of it on script form... .
So today.. The sound mix of Betty I Am started! The location is around the Howard Hughes Center, entering the building thinking what's ahead. After raiding their office fridge, with the sugar rush to bounce off the walls, I knew I was ready for a small session. Four hours past, the result was two scenes were finished, sorta..... And, for the rest, it's a work in progress. The style of the film makes a bit difficult for my sound guy, the sound presents a challenge, I was told so.......I'll see how things go after two weeks... . I still need to get this script done... .. stress relief needed soon...
I'd needed to get back to work, while I was at work!.. I haven't written anything of late... When writing, or attempting to write... Kinda weird saying it.. but, "you have to feel it". My life's up's and down's have kept me away from my little black book where my script is being done. Finally, got my mind a little clear... back to it.... When writing, I often get unsure about what I wrote, so I usually start all over again.. This script has too much of my personality, sooo (those who know me, yesh!!) .... Which means that I need to settle down and get back to what make sense and follow a strict story structure.... (This entry was in broken thoughts) Does your personality ever reflect off your work???
Ready to add another page to my script which... This is how it works.. write it by hand to technically make it my first draft then transfer it to my laptop final draft program thingy to make my second draft... .. One good thing about my job; I usually do most of my writing on my lunch breaks.. So.. this is how it works.. (Again) Drive, drive, think and think while driving to figure out script plot points, causes, character wants, what's funny, does it make sense... So, when lunch time rolls around, I have a good grasp on what's going on with the script!! Lot's of cream and lot's sugar...

Well, we're in the middle of the month and I'm at page 54 and a half of my latest script. Don't know the title yet, hopefully I'll hear it in a conversation or something. My deadline was suppose to be on friday. And, Sunday was going to be a day to clean up the script, spelling errors, or just plain errors. . But, the time and quality wasn't there...So....The day before, decided to take the day off and knew that i was not going to make it... I needed to enjoy at least one day out of the month. If you call enjoyment of starting off with the breakfast special at 7/Eleven, it sounds correct. Something about their coffee and food, it may resemble fast food rejects, but it seems okay in my book, because I'm on the go in the morning drive of my job. During my mini breaks of day dreaming 
at my job, I'd figured out how the climax of my script is going to occur. I added a special hobby to one of the characters and it fits in perfectly for the make up of the final act. Once off from work. I headed home to dress up, and met up with a few friends for an art gallery opening at one of places where I usually do some of my writing and at times other viewing pleasures; Royal/T.
