Just woke up in a daze and realized I habn't done my jounral for this evening.  I'll do the actual journal tomorrow, but participation now:

100 for helping with taping and masonaite and stuff.  Got one side taped, and helped yo with some of the cube-tracking.  Eurgh,  good night.

"White cats can't jump"

So, this HSPA week is actually proving invaluable on most fronts.  Except for the actual HSPA.  I'm really enjoying sitting in on the directing periods now and again with seniors.  Knowing bits from the other side is helping me some with what to be doing for the acting standpoint.  I guess hearing the lecture more academically rather than as part of a rehearsal put it in a different perspective.  So I've been applying that different viewpoint to my scenes in N3RD.  In between naps.

So, since I was actually in class today, 100 for helping with the camera, getting the boom and cable from the auditorium, and such.  'Twas nice to be in class rather than at HSPA.  Alas, back again tomorrow, but I learned more about the camera today.  Well, not about the camera itself, but about the importing of the footage, and the first step of editing.

WooOoooOoooooOoooooooOoooooooooOooooo

Participation doesn't really apply today, does it.  Huh.  I mean, I did enjoy sitting in on the directing lecture, but that wasn't my class, so whatever.


Okay, constructing the other third of the conversation in scene 9:


I'm here. 
 -Where?
At the final house. 
 -I don't see you.
In the bushes by the front door. 
 -OK,I'll be right there.
Well hurry up. 
 -I said I'll be right there!  Hang on!
My Cologne du Corpse is wearing off. They're gonna smell me. 
 -Dude, can you wait 2 seconds?
Please just get your ass over here.


There you are, man! I was getting lonely. 
 -Yeah, yeah.  You ready?  Let's go in!
Yeah, I'm ready. In a minute. Calm down. Don't you think, um…Don't you think we should wait for the rest of the team?
 -Why?  They're still a level behind.  We can do this.
Yeah I know we can, it's just--l have to check my armor one more time. 
 -Okay...
And refill my Sugar Rush. 
 -Jesus, can we please just go in?
And um ... 
 -Fuck it.
hey, get off the porch, get back in the bushes, I'm not ready yet!
 -Blake, you're just stalling so--
I am NOT stalling--! 

Shit, she makes me insane. 

 -Wonderful.  Can we just go the fuck in?

No, I'm not ready yet. 

 -Stop being such a pussy

It's not about being a pussy you douche--listen--there was this woman. 

 -At your house?

I wish--no--in the game. I couldn't tell if she was a Zombie or a player. She looked like Cody's mom and kept asking if I'd seen him. 

 -It was him trying to freak you out.

Yeah, I thought at first it was Cody being a total weirdo, but. Something was off. She kept saying, don’t go in.  

 -*That's* why you're taking so fucking long?  Dude--

I know it’s lame, but—

 -Why the fuck am I on your team...

Look, shut up--I took care of it! That's her on the sidewalk. I bashed her head in.

Grrrw, I just got the things-are-gonna-change-around-here speech. But nothing ever does. So to hell with it--let's go in. 

 -Finally!

Get up here and cover me. 

 -I got you.

I'm trying the front door ... oh weird, weird ... it's opening on its own. 

 -What's it look like?

I can't see anything inside. 

 -Oh boy

You ready? 

 -Have been for 3 weeks.

OK. 

 -Well?  Go in!

I'm in, I'm in! 

 -Where'd you go?

I'm behind the sofa, come on. 

 -Okay, I'm with you.

Shit I saw something move.

 -Where?

In the light of the television. 

 -What was it?

I don't know--just get up the stairs--it's in the bedroom at the top. Bedroom at the top. 

 -At the top.  Gonna open--

Wait, don't open the door yet.

 -Fucking hell.  Why not?

Do you hear that? 

 -I do now, yeah

Shit, my heart is pounding.

 -I think it's gone.

OK, ready man. 

 -Ready.

Opening the door ... I'm ... opening the door ...

BLAKE: Get out. Get out of the room get out of the house. Get out get out get out get out get out get out shit the front door is locked.

JOY: I locked the front door.

BLAKE: Are you there man? We're in trouble!

    -Dude, calm down!  We can take whatever it is.  We have weapons.

JOY: All night I've heard sirens.

BLAKE: I'm unarmed. I dropped my hammer somewhere on the stairs.

Oooooy

My voice was doing weird things in choir tonight.  'Twas not fun.  And the Part is starting to feel boring.  We did get a performance CD though, and it *sounds* really cool.

So yes.  I left my script at school, but I started constructing the other half of the conversation for my whole headset thing.  I'll be finishing that today.  And I'll probably type it up here as my journal.

100 for today for doing the speed-through, and not messing up too horribly.  Read the other bits for other people.  And so on.

Cue the 80s inspirational rock

So.  I'm looking forward to everything.  Today was, basically, a good day.  I accidentally left my script at school, but that is probably the worst thing to happen today.  I lucked out on the film project, group-wise.  I got to play piano for a couple of hours.  And that was marvelous.  I can't wait to have rehearsal of my own tomorrow.  I feel on top of things.  And yeah.  I'm really excited for everything.

I even got a compliment from Ms. Mack on my choreography.  Without using Mack Money.  That was pretty awesome.

I may have gone through a paradigm shift.  Not sure.  But it's possible.

OHBOY!

100 for working on the film project with Scarlett, Travis, and Mike.  It's going to be awesome.

In the beginning

I'm very, very happy that we're finally starting N3RD.  I really need it.  And I'm just excited to be working on a full character for a piece longer than 2 minutes.  Plus, cannot WAIT for those shoes.  That's going to be super fun.

Anyways.  Philo was really awesome tonight.  I've decided that if Denis does auditions for the bari solo in the Faure Requiem, I'll audition, even though I have slim to no chance of actually getting it.  I just think that would be so cool.

And about today.  I had my script, highlighted and everything, and I helped open the pit, plopped wood in there, and swept most of the stage.  So, you guessed it, 100.

Yay, Gabe becoming a better person!

Why hello there

Not like I'm sitting right next to you.  So.  Anyways.  As I awlways say

Participation at the beginning!

100 for today, for watching the movie and remarking pointedly and accurately.

Aaaaand 100 for yesterday for participating effectively in Francesca's workshop, presenting and working Harlequin, and being Chichi's Mr. M and Scarlett's Creon.

I definitely need to borrow Citizen Kane.  I need to see the beginning and watch it when I can see properly.   And can focus.  But at least I was here!

And Francesca's workshop.  I dunno.  I did enjoy the bit where she worked with Chichi on the whole hissing noise thing.  Sort of makes me want to tabulate the consonants and vowels in Demetrius.  Find the most prevalent noises.  Mrow.

And one final thought

GOATS!
