It's Memorial Day weekend. 3 day weekend.
This means that I'll be doing nothing 2 of the days and cramming homework in the last day. Yeah that sounds about right.
Video is about finished. I've lost a lot of my enthusiasm with this video, possibly just because I've seen it quite a few million times. I don't know. I MUST GET IT DONE THOUGH.
All this video tells you is that I had really dry skin for a while. I have very patchy skin. It's really stupid looking. And Ryan and Roger like to look at the camera.
I feel so fat sitting in front of the computer all day doing nothing. But I get quite a bit of enjoyment sitting here. I have friends, games, the internets, and more games. I tend to stay on just because I like to talk to friends. I stayed up till 2 last night talking to my friend yesterday. I appreciate friendship y'know.
I really have nothing to say. I have to learn to keep these posts shorter because otherwise no one will read them. Sooooooo later people.

Update
Been busy lately doing stuff and such, not as much time to post. This weekend I'll hardly be able to, but I'll update y'all when I can.
I compiled all the footage to about what I want it to be. It seems to flow okay, but it's a lot shorter than i expected. Oh well, it's a good 7+ minutes long though.
I spent about 45 minutes color correcting each individual clip. I made the whole thing seem more blue now, making it sorta look overcast and dreary. That's about all I did yesterday.
So far the editing process is going pretty quickly. I'll say that it looks pretty plain with no music or effects, but it'll look better EVENTUALLY.
Now, to other stuff:
Swimming so far has been pretty damn easy. I'm one of the fastest in my group, along with Ryan and some other swimmers. Though it's not terribly hard, I'm getting more and more sleepy after practices. It might be because I stay up till 11 talking to friends on Google Talk, but that's just a hunch. Otherwise, school's going pretty boringly.
For those of you who play Team Fortress 2, ALL I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT LATELY IS THE SCOUT UPDATE. I WANT THOSE NEW WEAPONS NOW!!!!!! AND I WANNA SEE THE NEW VIDEO BADLY!!!!!!! GO SCOUT! :D
And thanks to my friend Kristin, I have begun to love Arena mode and the Medic. Thanks again Kristin! :D
So yeah just an update there. Thanks for listening and good-day to you all. Seriously. You ALL.

Productive Thinking
It's a long weekend this weekend, thanks to President's Day. All the more reason to celebrate and relax with or without friends. I started my weekend after school yesterday by going for lunch with my friends. And today, so far I've just been playing video games. My sad, sad life.
But I haven't gone without thinking productively. This weekend marks the filming of UNDERFIRE 2. I've been thinking of some things I want to implement in the video for effect. For one, there's a chance it will rain that day, so, hoping for the best, I want it to rain. I'm thinking rain will make the whole video throughout more dark and suspenseful, without giving up a lot of the quality. Last time the footage was so bright and innocent that it didn't seem like the right atmosphere for a firefight. I had to color correct the entire thing for it to look slightly edgier.
Another thing I'm wondering about is how to make the muzzle flashes. The ones in the movies are a large, circular shaped flashes of white and yellow. But the ones I made last time were more "realistic" in terms of how it was blurred and colored. I don't really think it matters, but I was thinking about it pretty deeply for about an hour. It probably doesn't make a huge deal.
Overall, this sequel will be in a sense the same, but in another sense, different. The battle scenes are going to be more dynamic and intense, with some more violent kills and actions. There will be a lot more story-telling instead of just 4 guys running around killing each other with NERF guns. It will be more interesting to watch. Toward the end of the video last time, it was shown in a way that the fighting was getting tougher and slightly more intense. I want it more intense this time. I want more interesting scenes, more facial shots, better angles, better fights, I want it better overall.
Oh yeah, another thing we need is a better ending. The last ending honestly sucked. It's the only thing I haven't thought up yet. So any suggestions are welcome.
3 more days to plan and think about stuff. I hope that's enough time.
And screw homework. I don't need Algebra 2 anyway.
