Musings of an Idiot

Terror Inc.

It has been a busy few days - work at TVNZ + work on fine cut + acting practice sessions. I got the chance to catch up on my sleep today as I have been pretty restless over the past week and I had been waking up at 4.30 odd in the morning while going to bed around 11.00-11.30 each night. So feeling fresh and awake right now.

The fine cut on 'Five' is almost done. I will be watching it again and tweaking it if need be but the plan is to lock the cut down soon, so that work on sound design and score can start straight away. Most of the feedback which came through from the rough cut screenings have been implemented and I have to say that it does improve the movie's narrative/pacing a bit more.

I finished reading 'Terror Inc." by Loretta Napoleoni - a couple of days back and it was a fascinating read. It is a must read for understanding the state of world current affairs and how terrorism has evolved and who is responsible for the funding of it. The book is not political at all - it rather traces the money route and just states the facts based on solid research - and to top it all it is an easy read. A masterpiece and an essential read for sure.

I received a letter from Department of Internal Affairs saying that my application for NZ citizenship has been approved. So once the ceremony is done I will be a kiwi - the date for the ceremony hasn't been set but yayyyyyyy anyway.

Till later,
Amit
