Well, it's late October now.
Teaching really does preclude editing for me -- especially because this is the first time I've ever had more than one "prep," which is to say I'm teaching both critical video production as well as public speaking. I'm finding it rather challenging. Ahem. Nothing left over in my brain (or life) for too much else and I'm worn out. Serious academics on tenure tracks do more than one prep - often 3 - all the time, I know, but notice how I supposedly *left* that career?? Hmmm...
Fingers crossed, it looks probably that I"ll get three sections of the same course next term, which will be much easier on my psyche and my time-wallet.
I write today, though, because I ran into someone yesterday (ouch) who mentioned that he'd seen the little video clip of Scene 6 (posted back in I think Feb), so this morning I went back and watched it, myself. Made me miss all the See & Be folk and the sense of progress on the movie and feel more optimistic about getting back to it. A little distance and it's not so bad. Have graded several student productions by now, too, which of course make ours look better.
Back to grading now!
