‘I’ve Built Robots’: Homeless People In Poignant Video Remind Us It Can Happen To Anyone

“I speak four languages.” “I’ve built robots.” “I have a degree in biology from West Virginia University.” These aren’t statements from renowned business leaders or well-known academics. These are truths written…

Affected Hearts (Appreciation Post)

tumblr_n8q7q2OSg81s90ds7o1_500

In a world, no one can touch 

You’ve drifted into mine

I into yours 

And we’ve created a song of understanding

And Appreciation

We eventually leave

But the memory 

Of which remains

 

Visit what we were 

 

In those rich moments

 

Because I will

 

Never forget

What we shared

 

What you saw

What you let me see

 

How we made one another feel

In the exchange

 

Cuz it’s something.

 

It’s something friend.

Another Piece of Wonder (Composition)

Okay I know this blog is practically almost a composer appreciation blog now. I don’t mean it.

No seriously, just wanted to share and make a record for myself of this.

This composition is an event.

#LeSigh

I am going to work with these guys, later or sooner.  I JUST started fleshing something out today, I thought they’d be perfect on (under certain scenes). I even envisioned how I’d start the story, their music playing.

This is gonna sound stupid, but sometimes I feel a collaboration with certain people is meant. Like a spiritual puzzle piece finding its way into the proper slot.

Two Steps From Hell sort of feel that way to me, I just imagined a collaboration much further off.

But today as I wrote, their music felt right. Then as I figured the timeline for the work (that’s if my new job goes well and I am making a decent paycheck), meaning when I’d like to shoot, I wondered how easy it would be to contact them. So I checked out their website.

EASY.

So I’m going to pitch them when I have the log lines (some of you voted on my latest so you know what that is now). And they might suggest I send them rough cut which I absolutely will, as I figure out what this is gonna cost. Of course.

Now the reason why the starting filmmaker has to do as powerful a work as she can.

So much can happen if you get it there, sometimes people work with you – if they’re moved.

Ah, I’m babbling.

Wanna see their site: http://www.twostepsfromhell.com/

Isn’t it so accessible like? I thought it would be really clinical and expensive looking and I’d click right out. Like …”NOPE ya can’t afford them.” Probably still can’t, but they were nice enough to have someone make a site that is encouraging.
