From emotional to... fiscal...? Jun. 4th, 2008 @ 11:24 pm
Damn, have the gas prices risen! It's almost doubled since first year college and it doesn't seem to stop! So. As a sign of the times (and of my age), I've decided to only use my car for shoots and oculars. It doesn't make sense to pay for toll, gas, and parking anymore. It's just too much to spend on! So it's back to commuting for me. I'd gotten a good groove with it in Cebu, and I'm sure it won't be that much of a lifestyle change for me. It'll be more hectic and there're way more routes to be learned, but what the hell.

I'm saving for my future, and a future with her. Time for a lifestyle change. It's for the both of us.

My personal debrief. )
» Laying all my cards down.
Pupil's Monobloc music video shoot's in seven hours.

I've taken lots of notes, I've studied all the pegs, and I've planned out my lighting diagrams as well as i can. I'm using all the tricks I've learned over the (gasp!) three years since I decided on cinematography as my career. Pulled out all the stops. Every project is supposed to be another rung on the ladder of skill. No matter what lights you're able to use, you should incrementally get better. And this project's definitely one of those rungs that have been sawn through close to breaking. That one rung that you've got to tread lightly on, lest you snap it and come tumbling down a few feet.


I've got a lot of professional pride riding on this, and I will not allow myself to fail. The outcome of this project's gotta be a step up from my previous work. The best even. It just has to be. ANd it'll be there for everyone to see. As best said by Vaughn Cruz in our thesis film, "This is me, this is all of me."

I know that as a DP, I should be biased towards dance, but I think voice is so much hotter that motion.
