Check-in: Week 10

I can't believe October is almost over! I still have a lot of website updating to finish (though I'm hoping to get a big chunk of that done today). I've got to write one more "Musing Pictures" post, and I need to see a movie for it (it's the one I owe to www.labeh-er.com, the Jewish-themed one, that I have yet to write this month. I got the film "Waltz with Bashir" from NetFlix, and have been meaning to watch it, but haven't had the time. Again, hopefully today...

I'll be shooting "Just the Ticket" on Sunday! I'm excited about that -- the cast seems wonderful, and at this point, almost every necessary piece is in place for a very smooth shoot. I'll be missing my October deadline by a day, but that should still be early enough that I'll be able to catch myself up in November.

Reflecting on this past week, I don't feel that I've been all that productive. That said, much of the pre-production work for the short was accomplished over the course of the week, so I must have done something right.

At the end of this month, I've got to complete a full evaluation of my year-to-date progress. That'll be interesting. There are definitely some goals that I've got an easier time with, and other goals that I simply haven't figured out how to accomplish. Should be a good process.

Today, among other things, I want to storyboard the short. I haven't storyboarded a short in probably a year or so, and it's a process I really enjoy.
