Time for five more random things while I contemplate the vast yawning chasm of suckitude that is my lack of aptitude for anything to do with editing video. No really, I'm not good enough to be incompetent. However, I keep getting paired with people who are scared of their own ignorance. I on the other hand am willing to look like an idiot in public, so I keep editing. Maybe the next time I get handed the baby, I'll get someone to teach me how to edit audio. If this keeps up, I may end up being mediocre. Good seems a bit too much to hope for, as my respect for my friends and family members who really are good at this stuff rises.
Anyway five things of interest, for loosely defined values of interest.
1) Even in the midst of editing film, big band still makes me outrageously happy. The film soundtrack ended up being Glen Miller's In the Mood. It makes me wish that I were a better dancer. Maybe like this:
2) Instructions for cocktail making AND any of the creative disciplines at the very same time. A Twist of Lemon.
3) My color theory teacher discussing the particulars of an assignment:
If you interpret tranquility as lots of reds, blacks, and yellows, I can't really disagree, but I will send you to the school nurse.I have considered devoting a section of the blog to this particular instructor's gnomic utterances, but type just does not capture the delivery.
4) "I'm sort of a god in the Twin Peaks community." Later the statement was amended to an unequivocal assertion of TP godhood. However, I think equivocation is funnier.
5) Lapsang souchong is the best black tea for editing film.
