the film

so the film i'm working on is rather fantastic. it's always wonderful to be a part of something that is great.
i'm sitting here in new mexico (trying to sleep since we had an early night) reveling in the fact that i am actually working on a movie. it may be independent, but the story is compelling and interesting and a total chick flick which of course, i love! we are doing the pick up shoot this week and it has been the most tiresome experience in my life (i think), but so worth every moment. this is what i am passionate about. good storytelling and being a part of something that has huge potential. the lead actors in this film better make it big. they are rather talented. hollywood is so fickle though. actors get chewed up and spit out so easily. it's too bad because i know some pretty incredible actors who should be getting the big deals! seriously.
anyway, off my soapbox and back to the film... it's about this small little county with this radio talk show host, lauren, who gives horrible dating advice, telling her callers to compare their prospects to cars. along comes jack, this hot shot (and totally adorable) california radio guy who happens to get lost in this town where he ends up challenging lauren and this county to bring magic back into love and relationships. it's a very charming and hopeful film and i am so thankful to be a part of it, even late into the production. it's been an amazing experience. i've made some pretty great contacts and have become even better friends with the guys producing the film, also, my bosses. haha. i enjoy working with people who are passionate about what they do! it encourages me and challenges me to keep going after all these dreams i have to be a writer.
again, back to the film...you should go check out the website: coyotecountyloser.com. it needs to be updated....but go look now as it will give you a really good idea about the film!

well, i'm off to bed to rest since i have another crazy day tomorrow of shooting. I believe I get to operate the camera tomorrow. how amazing is that? my job is the ultimate hodge podge of things. i've done practically every job on this shoot. it's completely insane.
and i got sunburned. fantastic. but i'm still smiling and snorting of course.
