Adventures in Music for Motion Picture

In this line of work your life style is either comfortable, or pauper-ish depending whether you have many jobs and much money or a few jobs and no money. This is commonly referred to as Feast and Famine. During one of my many famines my wife Camille and I had this conversation- which I am not making up. "...no Micah, until we have cash we can SHARE a toothbrush ". This was in response to my suggesting we use the credit card (which we were using to buy gas with that night instead of Nigel's birthday money) to replace my toothbrush when all the bristles fell out in my mouth. Which is very anticlimactic as far as brushing your teeth goes. You're hoping to get this wonderful clean feeling but instead your pulling little plastic hairs out of your mouth all day. Any way, good times.

The Documentary

First off I should talk about what the doc is. Once upon a time Jacob Hoehne was so fed up with all the urban legends circulating around his Utah home, he decided to learn for himself once and for all weather or not they were true or contrived. So he collected his favorites stories, both LDS urban legends such as "Was Yoda patterned after President Kimbal?", and Utah's own Urban legends such as "Are there whales in the Great Salt lake?", then Report his findings in a documentary. So he assembled a crew of flat feet-ed sleuths, and competent film makers, and got to work. Two years later we're wrapping it up and preparing it for it's debut. Which will be this October 4th, on the TV (I don't remember which network is showing it, I'll put that up later) after the Saturday afternoon LDS General Conference session. So tune in , and prepare to have your minds blown!

Staying Up Late to Reach Deadlines is Hazardous to Your Health

So no post for a while now. But not because of lazy internet habits like usual, this time I had a good excuse that will actually help with my blogging for the next while. I think. I've been trying to make deadlines for a documentary that will be airing very soon. And these deadlines have caused me to miss a lot of sleep, And put many other things, such as blogging, aside to reach them. But a lot of nifty things happened during that crunch time that will be fun to read about I think. So keep on coming back.
