According to my well laid plan of a page and three-quarters per day, I should be finishing Scene 50 today. I got some good work done yesterday after a few days of really dragging (depressed because I didn't get a job I REALLY WANTED, for which I had a second interview - hard to work devotedly under those circs), but I think I am about a day behind -- and I'm not sure I will get much done today. Still, I had some "cushion" days built into my planning, so I'm not really too concerned yet about meeting my Dec 31st deadline.
Which is to say....
I am hereby announcing that I believe that within the next NINE DAYS, the rough cut (picture) of Seeing and Believing will be done! God willing and the power doesn't go out. Now, we just want to see it!
As of tomorrow, and then for four days, I will be house- & dog-sitting. I think I'll be able to do good, concentrated work there. I'm counting on it, in fact. Why wouldn't I? In any case, those are my "big Christmas plans" so it's not like editing will be competing with visiting family festivities or anything.
What I'm really hoping is that I'll be able to finish the narrative by the end of the 29th (Sat'y), and then have the 30th to shoot a couple things (ha! both clocks, actually -- one in the dining room, one to be next to Marissa's detached ponytail) and string everything together. On the 31st, I might be taking a bus to Philly to see me mum, but that might happen on the 1st. THEN, to start off the NEW YEAR right, I will start trying to figure out what's going wrong when I try to export and burn a DVD, because you know stuff will go wrong when I try to do that.
So that's the plan!

So when can we view this film? I'm eager to. Sounds like you're wrapping things up on schedule. Good work. Congratulations
