  • More pictures later. Just a quick update because I'm cranky and pissed off.



    Shoot was almost disaterous. The kaboom turned out to be a kabang. Kinda like how this entry could be interesting, except it'll turn out short and boring. Kinda like Asian guys.

    My test went well today, too. Had to drive almost six hours round trip from Houston to Austin. Will post images later this week.

    I'm off to post. If you don't know what that means, it means I will be stuck in a room yelling at an editor. Heh, this job has some fringe benefits.



    Other fringe benefits collected on Sunday's shoot:

    - Yelled at a Police Officer and told him what to do.
    - Yelled at a ________ Army General's son all day and made him cry.
    - Yelled at various people.
    - Yelled at an 'executive' for fucking up my shot.

    You should gather that I do a lot of yelling on my shoots. It's fun and all, but weird. It's a habit that has just recently developed in Houston. I don't really like to yell because it affects the way people work.

    But you know how I bitch and moan about 'business men' who want to show that they are superior, rich, have a big dick, etc. even though they don't? Well, that's the type of people these clients are. We agreed to do a no budget shoot at their request, but all day they wanted me to shoot like Michael Bay.

    C'mon, these guys can't even afford film. They probably can't even afford their car notes. I found out all of these guys are living on daddy's money. Fags.

    Anyway, they claimed to have access to explosives and they needed something to explode in this project. I asked for a M1000 since all we needed to blow up was a wagon. They told me they'd get something that'd blow bigger. Fine.

    I shoulda got the M1000 after the first of three times they postponed the shoot because they couldn't get the explosives in, but I figured it was because it was some potent shit. Well it wasn't. Shit was so weak that the caution tape even stated that it was fit for indoor use. FUCK!!!!

    When the time for the 'money shot'(that's what these dorks referred to the explosion) came, they couldn't even detonate the fucker. They complained about it being a dud, to which I replied:

    DID YOU FUCKS CHECK THE BATTERIES ON THE IGNITER?

    It needs batteries?

    WHAT THE FUCK?????? Assholes.

    Before I pop a 9 volt in there, they try to convince me to hook up the igniter to the Humvee's battery. Huh?



    Pop. That's the sound I get. A puff of smoke dissipates in the air. I've blown bigger smoke rings while smoking than the sorry cloud we got from the 'awesome explosive'.

    Meanwhile, the guys high five each other really awkwardly(they're eastern european). Me and my guys shake our heads in dismay. I'm never getting excited over anything anyone describes to me again.



    Thanks to my crew. Efforts were great and the footage so far looks good despite cloud issues. The 'explosion' is a joke, but everything else looks great.

    High five!

  • breathe my friend...breathe...

  • dude I am a yeller too... but it's better to do it without your asian dick sticking out.

  • ps, if you're help is a bunch of dumbasses, then you have every right to yell...

    in my experience, if you want things done, you have to start your sentences with "Bitch"

    example: "Bitch, what the fuck are you doin? Bitch get me a battery!"

  • bitch, write a funnier post.  and have a drink.....bitch.

  • bitch, what's up?

    must be great to shout at a cop.
