Dear, Diary:

Saturday, November 24th, 2007-
Dear Diary,

I am currently working on the script for my LoveFest entry. I have cast the films two main actors, R.L. Jackson, and Tori Lee. I am pretty happy with that cast considering my available resources. Ronnie (R.L.) is extremely talented, but I'm looking for a character that is not his typical "comfort zone" and will play differently than he is used to. Should be a challenge for him, but I have faith. Tori, is perfect for the role. Neither role is dialogue intensive, but I think they will still be characters with good depth (hopefuly, and this is partly left to the actors) that will be challenging and rewarding for the actors to play. That's the goal anyways. Most of the communication between these characters will go on between the lines.

I am planning the bulk of my shoot during three days in mid December. I believe I have those dates locked down. Dear, Diary. I hope I finish this entry this time. I have faith that i will.

Until next time.... Love Jason

Saturday, December 22nd, 2007:
Dear Diary,

It's been a while since I last wrote to you. Sorry about that... but, keeping a diary is kinda gay to me. I'll try to do better in the future. I do have some new things to say. I shot my whole film and I am determined to finish it this time. This will be my first time ever finishing a film of any length, so I am happy about that. My actors did really well, as I expected they would. Technically, we'll see. I just kind of winged the process and figured things out as I went along. But, I'm pretty happy with the results so far and I've learned a lot along the way.

The edit is pretty much done. I still have quite a bit of work to do on audio, and I'm awaiting Herman Witkam's score for the film.... I love him... I just hope he doesn't cheat on me and finishes my score soon.... I know I can be a bit obsessive and possessive, but I'm just anxious to finish the film. I know he will do a great job... if he doesn't, I'll have to pay him a visit in the Netherlands, and chop his.... well... you get the point.

I guess that's it for now. I'll try to write to you again my sweet diary. But, if I don't... don't take it personally. I'm just busy... with... something else.

Until next time... Love, Jason

Dear Diary... I guess I owe you another apology. I never was good at keeping journals and such, so... sorry about that.

This is likely to be the last time we speak. Just wanted to let you know the good news. I completed my film and submitted it for the festival. I'm very happy about this, and I'm proud to have finally finished a film. I learned a lot that I can take with me.

So, that's all I wanted to say. I'm finished... and I guess that means so are you

Later,
Jason

Ha, ha. Maybe my LoveFest entry should be the p2 guys internet chatroom date... But, then he finds out that the other person uses SxS and tears, cat fights, and hilarity ensues. Eventually, they work out their differences and make beautiful a beautiful S2 baby, and later have beautiful PxP twins....

I'm sleeping now

Later,
Jason

This is my first fest too. I had excellent intentions to enter a couple of previous ones, but it just never happened. Third time is definitely the charm.
