Deja Vu

It is a strange time. I have been seeing more and more Deja Vus over the past 2 weeks - it is almost disorienting..It is almost as if I have visited this particular point in time more often.

The past 2 days have been busy but relaxing at the same time. Friday was the last day for Triangle Studio show and since 2 people dropped out at the last moment, Darryn and me had to become part of the crew. I was on camera while Darryn was on Audio. It meant that the day which could have gone towards getting some crucial paperwork out of the way, went into the studio. Made up for that by spending a few hours today and yesterday by going in to school and doing some paperwork... Also need to prepare for this thursday's first evening post lecture.

Yesterday, bumped into Ryan and Frasier from the 2003 batch and it was a pleasent surprise. Later in the day Lance came over and had a small discussion about the next movie and also what all we had learnt from this one and what worked for us and what didn't. Went to Ira's place but unfortunately the copy of Avid did not install on his powerbook..so will have to load up FCP later this week.

Went and saw 'The Aviator' yesterday evening and it was fantastic. Saw it on the Megascreen on Queen street, which was an experience in itself. Any attempts to try and write about the experience will only do injustice to the movie. Martin Scorsese lives in celluloid and thats the best way to put it.

I drove around for an hour - just pointless, driving where I felt like turning. It helped clear up my headspace -something which I needed desperately, so I could re-analyse my list of things to do. Sometimes, there is so much work and you are caught up in the flow of things that it is hard to step away and objectively look at whats happening around you. I think that driving around definitely helped me step away from my current point in time to re-assess.

Time flies...it really does. It is such a relative concept but we do get caught up in it. Just finished watching a low budget sci-fi movie called "The Cube". It was cool...flawed acting but fantastic concept and execution. Definitely worth a watch.

Anyway..am off for now. Got to do some more thinking.
Ciao,
Amit

Cube 2 was better than Cube. I saw Cube 2 first and really enjoyed it, then saw Cube, but wasn't all that impressed with it.

Did one of the teams from this years batch at South Seas use our 'Dodgeball' poster (from the Video Shop) in their street signs???
