Update on life

For the last 2 weeks, I've called the couch of a good friend's family in Atlanta, home. They have been absolutely wonderful hosts, and I feel like a lazy slob spending most of my day working from their couch. I'm going to have to get them a nice, little Christmas something.

So this Sunday is pretty exciting - my old professor and good friend, Jason Maurer, is having his feature film, Delgo, released nation wide. Unfortunately, I'm in Atlanta, so I'll have to see it here, but won't be able to see it in Savannah, where Jason is planning on seeing it with everyone. It doesn't feel like a huge deal, which is odd. Perhaps it's due to knowing Jason on a personal level. In reality, though, it's hardly the case. This is huge for Jason and the Fathom Studios team. Working as hard as they did to make this, it's good to see their persistence and dedication to the film has finally paid off. Knowing what I do about major distribution (which is honestly very little), I know how hard it can be to get your film noticed nationally like that. I hope Jason and the rest of Fathom Studios gets some well deserved street cred, or some returned profit income.

Anyway, life moves ahead for me. Still working contract on advertising projects, applying to animation and storyboard studios around the country and abroad, trying to work my film into various festivals and showings, and dealing with corporate America and the ever tightening belt of economic recession. But, post-college awkwardness can't last forever, right? Right.
