What I've Been Doing
First off, this is not the entry that I promised my mom. That will come in a few days. This is just a basic update on what’s been going on with me lately.
To start things off, I graduated from Full Sail. Yes, that is correct. I now hold a BS in Film. It feels pretty good. It was an intense 21 months of non-stop schooling, but it was worth it. The farther I get from it, the more I realize that I got a really good, really valuable education. Granted, it was very expensive, but I’ve really been applying much of what I learned to the couple of jobs of taken.
Actually, to be honest, neither I, nor Jon Morfino, attended our graduation ceremony. Why? We had a shoot. We were the documentary crew on the Fireball Run, which is a cross-country rally for the Child Rescue Network. That was from September 27th- October 7th. Graduation was on the 5th. It was a the best reason to miss school ever. It was shot on HD, and is in the editing room right now for Discovery Channel HD. SCORE!
After I got back, I went on a three day victory cruise with my friends. It was awesome. The room service was free, and 24 hours a day. YES. From there, I went up north to visit the family for a week.
Last week, I went to Tulsa with Gorgonzola and Sonny to shoot a live webstream of the ABA Grand Nationals. It was really fun. I made a good bit of money for that, and, boy, did I work for it. Two days after that, I ended up on another shoot with Gorgonzola. It was a profile of Brian Johnson of AC/DC for a Formula 1 show overseas. We got a work with a director from Hong Kong named Dean Head, as well as mingle with a lot of wealthy people.
Now, I’m home. Just taking it easy for a few weeks.
