Whoa!<\/p>\n
What happened to August?<\/p>\n
I was doing so well at updating this thing weekly and then… Post-Production. What can I say? My sincere apologies to my loyal readers – both of you – I’m going to do better from now on.<\/p>\n
So the big news (for me) is that I’ve officially finished posting the movie! Until I watch it again a month from now, hate it and decide to change everything. But for now… For now, it is blissfully in the can. From script to final viewing in seven months. Not bad next to my track record. At this rate I could bust two of these out a year (or so)… And look forward to a heart-attack and the ripe old age of 35.<\/p>\n
Well, my head’s still in a flurry so I’m really just checking in here to say, I’m back… Back with nothing much to say. That’s not entirely true but the rest will have to wait a little bit. Though the movie is done the fine art of getting the word out there is only just beginning and that’s actually what’s got my head in a flurry.<\/p>\n
We’ve got plans. Oh, yes.<\/p>\n
I’ve spent the last week trying to hack my way to a couple of Myspace pages<\/a> that don’t look like total gash and I’m happy as could be expected with the results<\/a>. Bottom line, it’s Myspace, so it’s always going to be fairly crappy looking and have the functionality of a one-armed semaphore signalman; however it’s also Myspace, so I’ve had to learn to suck it up. Ditto Facebook, who seem hellbent on making my life difficult (right down to covertly editing posts to my FB Refrain group<\/a> without notice to remove offsite links – I shit you not). They may be networking monstrosities but they’re also networking monstrosities, and to try to shut them out of promoting this movie would be putting pride before productivity and I think I’ve made my position on that clear in previous entries.<\/p>\n Hey, look at that, turns out I did have something to say after all. When in doubt, kvetch.<\/p>\n So that’s what’s been going on. That and the search for festivals. More on all of this soon. Til then I invite you (both) to have a look around at the growing Refrain<\/em> network! You can start here:<\/p>\n
