Rehearsal was good

So once through tonight and we were done - full lights, sound, costumes, Bree taking some of her clothes off and a fake beer being poured on my head - sure its not time to cash in some of that vay-kay and come out to Cali!?

The show opens next week and it has been one of the more fun pieces that I have gotten to work on. I feel like I am doing some really good work - some of the best since Macbeth (for those that came to see that) and I really dig the writing. The work that everyone is putting into the show is amazing - Bree is doing such a wonderful job, both acting and producing the show (with next to no money!), I wish you guys could all come and see her. So funny, as she always is, and she steals a scene or two with her realistic wit and charm. I have some pictures of the set and I will upload them on Monday (as I have not the time right now nor the desire to wait for them to load from my camera to the computer)

She got her contract for the TV show this week and so they should be hammering that out anytime now and starting production soon.

Her WD-40 callback went good and I think the Nintendo thing was a no-go - the producers loved her, but they didn't end up using the mom character and so I guess she is going to have to do an Xbox 360 commercial to spite them! =)

Work has been good for me, as you have seen from the last few posts and I have to work tomorrow/today and Monday. Bree is heading to the theatre to clean tomorrow... it is kinda dirty and then rehearsal again tomorrow night.

Well... it is late, Bree is getting ready for bed and I should too - Jabez is already asleep... we just got a late late late dinner and I had three cups of joe... not the best idea before bedtime, but then again I am not always the smartest cookie!

Good Night True Believers!

So rehearsal last night was long but tons of fun.

I got to the theare around 6:30pm & left at 3am this morning - we ran thru the show once, did some resets of the lights & sound, hung our super cool backdrop & then did a cue to cue.

After rehearsal I got to come home & do more sound editing work, which took about a half an hour... Not to bad considering I had to do work on three sound files.

So you might have noticed my myspace has gone back to being very plain - I am doing some work on it & it should be updated with some new blog info & pics & stuff... I am trying to make it into more of a biz tool like my website that Scott is going to help me redesign. He is going to do some flash work on it - Scott, did you see the comment I posted about my thoughts on layout, colors & animation style? I am going to send you an email about it on monday with some more ideas for it. (Since I am working all weekend & in tech, I'm not sure if I will have time to write before Monday... Depends on how slow work is) As cool as the superman theme is - & I do love the man of steel, I felt the need to update it - so in the meantime it is going to stay kinda plain - look for an update & some new pics early next week.

Well, I just got my 2nd table of the day & should do something at work besides blog :)

Later kids!

Part Two: So work went well and while the CD is burning (the V2 of the soundtrack I fixed last night) I thought I would post today's blog - So off to rehearsal tonight, going to be another long one!

Thanks to everyone that has put in their two cents about the photos - for those that haven't, it is not to late - get your votes in! =)
