Where I Face My Age: a video

Posted Sep 26, 2010 02:11 PM
Sure. It looks like a short little video and that's it, that's all. There are a gazillion production details, though - kind of a surprise. Who knew it would take so much getting, learning, adjusting? Camera, lighting, mics. Sound, synching, editing so the synching might actually work. Jeesh. And restraining from using my every day profanity. Oh, THAT's been a tiny little hell (which I intend to give up. It's so not worth it, just to avoid anyone's objections.) That's been a part of the hardest part: making myself comfortable with making myself public. Originally, I meant to keep myself out of these videos. I don't care that this young internet generation is so loose with their privacy. That's their problem. Or good luck. Whatever. But I realize that, as a for instance, you can't visit a place without taking a personality along and using it as a lens. I know this too well about traveling. Send two people to the same city or neighborhood or joint and they'll experience completely different things. Have them read the same book and they'll read it differently. So. I'm still figuring it all out, but the lessons are coming fast and furious and I'm currently almost sure I'm actually learning something. Imagine THAT!

Dear Caren: Cruel. Yes! What a perfect description! And ANY way you spell it (you, not me because I'm not touching that stuff either) it's somehow very wrong. :)

If I want these videos to be honest - and I do - I'm going to have to talk like I talk when I'm talking about stuff that begs for profanity. I'm convinced that nothing wants it more than the above mentioned jowls/jowels. Ha. (But really.)

I LOVE you're going to make a video. (Pretty soon, we can start an AV Club. Oh. That seriously made me laugh. Not the club I expected to be joining.) If I didn't mix animation in, they'd be a lot easier. Have you seen Debra Hadabra's? They're a joy.

Bye. Love, Cris who's off to join your community.
Oh yes the jowls...is that how you spell it, or is it jowels like bowels, I don't even want to know. It is cruel the jowels. I haven't found a way to cast a positive light on it.

Enjoyed your video. It is inspiring me to make one too! I'd love to see the profanity version! But but that's just me.

Thanks for the smile today!
