I'm emptying most of my stuff from my apartment today. I tried to clean and pack some of it up last night, but looking around my room right now, it's pretty clear I didn't make any progress whatsoever. I think it might have been the fact that I started watching Arrested Development last night on my computer, thinking I could pack and watch at the same time. But then I ended up just watching without actually packing anything.
There was a pretty amazing storm last night with some nonstop lightning. Too bad I couldn't enjoy it fully since I was too busy watching Arrested Development.
I caught the season finale of Lost, too. It's really interesting, now that I've had even just a tiny bit of experience in shooting a film, to analyze camera angles, movements, and focusing. I never realized just how important all that was. Even with great acting, a show would be awful without some really good camera work. For instance, shooting over someone's shoulder really tightens up a dialogue scene. Cutting to different people's facial expressions during periods of silence is good, too. If only I had a film crew to do all this stuff for me. Dang it, I knew I should have applied to Hollywood School of Medicine. I probably would have been waitlisted, though, for shoddy camerawork.
