Musings of an Idiot

Leaver!!!

Yeah...i guess that's me as I have just left Dan's project and I am no longer the 1st A.D on that. Was it easy? Not at all - i winced in pain and twisted and turned in my bed, agonised for a full hour before texting Dan that I did not want his project to suffer because of me. The reason for leaving - the producer was giving out a really weird vibe towards me and the reason obviously was that she has read and mis-interpreted one of my earlier posts or she has been told about it, and she was just acting plain weird - reminded me of the saying 'Hell hath no fury than a woman scorned' or something like that. Obviously it is a just a really hard thing to just walk up to people and talk things out -if you are offended, and hence the weird body language and vibe from a couple of my team members. And I did not want this whole thing to spill over onto Dan's project and ruin it -especially since it is gonna be a fantastic short film, so I decided that it would be in the project's best interest for me to leave - more so if the producer doesn't want me on the project. I had a chat with Dan and he seems to have no problem with me and I don't have any problems with him but the whole issue as such -however silly it might be - will not get sorted out anytime soon. And so i am no longer on the project - i hope that brings satisfaction to whoever wanted it that way. Which means i will now have somedays to myself next weekend - doing nothing or maybe writing the script for the next short film.

Will be having a workshop with Alan Brash on sunday and obviously shooting the fight scene in the woods for my feature this saturday. Which obviously i need to discuss it through with the actors.

How do I feel right now? Pretty empty - it could be because I have had no breakfast yet, which I will go and get sometime soon. A fresh day and a fresh hope.

will keep you posted.

{just on a side note - i re-read that concerned post again and it does come across as being pretty close to the interpretation which some of my team members seem to have taken. Well, I didn't mean it that way but if you think I did -then i obviously am a prick and an insensitive pig {not that pigs are not sensitive} and it's a coincidence too that a couple of days ago i posted something titled'Calm before the Storm'}
