Coat Hangers for Strait Jackets

The title doesn't mean anything, I just like it. I suggested it as the name for our production company at work, but we didn't end up changing the name, so it's a title waiting for a home. Since I'm going to post a bunch of random shit, I figured I'd throw it out there. Maybe it's the title for a short film...

So it's been 2 years, almost to the day, that I finished Edit This, so I thought I'd post it.

Can't believe it's been 2 years and I still enjoy it, which I guess is a good sign.

Also, after 7 long months, I have completely a pretty-close-to-finished cut of Okay Great. Between work, wedding planning, and life in general, I wasn't always able to sit down and grind it out, but as friend told me recently, it'll happen when it's ready. There's still some work to be done in the editing room, then get someone to score the film with original music and then do the final audio mix. My goal is to be ready by august to submit to Sundance and then wait for the rejection letter.

A few weeks ago, my fiancée and I went on our official engagement shoot, although we've been engaged for 2 1/2 years. Regardless, we are lucky enough to have Steve Depino and Carla Ten Eyck shooting our wedding and they both teamed up for the engagement shoot as well. We had a great day! Lost of fantastic pictures, (no surprise if you've seen any of their work) laughs, beers, and dinner to top off the night. I'll never be able to thank either of you enough, but know how much we appreciate your work and personalities and that we count ourselves as very lucky to have you be a part of our wedding day. If the pictures from the big day are half as amazing as the engagement pictures then we're in for an enormous treat. If you want to see our photos, go here for steve's and here for carla's.

I've been too busy to get out to the movies and the ones I have seen haven't left an impression on me. I watched There Will Be Blood again, which is on DVD and if you haven't seen that yet, you need to. Yeah that's right, you NEED to.
