The word is on the street that the fire in you're heart is out
So, I've been in a strangely good mood since Thursday.
First off late afternoon to early evening yesterday we had a CAM org meeting for the 6th Inyorai Bidyo Festival. I am plugging it in advanced. Contact me if anybody's interested in joining. It's a short film/documentary/feature/animation festival-competetion.
Next I am still in the process of writing a bleeding scene sequence for le script. It's gonna be good. There's no working title yet but the movie tagline or one-liner thing is something like: We're all gonna die in the end anyway, so why not fast forward it? It's suicide without the angst and depression with a bit of unspoken love on the side, which is where Our Lady Peace's 4 AM comes in. The song fits the film-in-preprod perfectly, as in word for word. I've posted it before but here goes a part of 4 AM's lyrics.
I walked around my room not thinking
Just sinking in this box
I blame myself for being too much like
Somebody else
I never thought I would just bend this way
Then a phone call made me realize I'm wrong
If I can make it known that
I've loved you all along
Just like sunny days that
We ignored because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out what's wrong
But that is not really the theme of the whole story, it just tells a part. However I am in a dilemma as to whether to use my life savings-as-of-the-moment plus parent's money in order to get license for using the song legally. HAHA JUST KIDDING. I'd have to find another song from some indie band :( It's gonna be hard looking for something that communicates the feelings as much as 4 AM though. Anyway... there can always be the not-for-profit version for friends only. Lol.
Wonderwall is fitting too. And so is Talking Shit About A Pretty Sunset by Modest Mouse. Here are the lyrics for the latter.
Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Looking kind of anxious in your cross armed stance
Like a bad tempered prom queen at a homecoming dance
And I claim I'm not excited with my life anymore
So I blame this town, this job, these friends
The truth is it's myself
And I'm trying to understand myself
And pinpoint where I am
when i finally get it figured out
I've change the whole damn plan
Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Talking shit about a pretty sunset
Blanketing opinions that i'll probably regret soon
I've changed my mind so much I can't even trust it
My mind changed me so much I can't even trust myself
Funny thing is, Remika only pointed out after I talked to her about this story that 4 AM is rather fitting. And I only noticed Wonderwall and Talking Shit About A Pretty Sunset are perfect too a couple of days later. I'm taking that as a positive sign that the film will be tackling something ever so universal that, at least I hope so, everybody would be able to relate to. Or people of my generation at least.
Now that I think of it, those are the only two I've been doing. And oh yeah, I've been studying regularly as well. Tadaa. And eating a lot of vegeroni puttanesca hahaha. (I heart Katag, you should all too. And NISMED cupcakes too.)

can I write a song for it (or maybe several so you could choose) once you're done with it? I want that exposure, and i'm feeling kinda dark listening to all that metal.
hmmm ok. hehehe
napipilitan ka lang ata eh. hehe
pramis instrumental lang muna gagawin ko.
nagiisip kasi ako gumamit nalang ng classical eh. i think itd be hard to find something of 4 AM's calibre or something. hahahaha
I mean, ano naman kasi gagawin mo?
ah sure. pero di ba pag classical may copyright din yun? not sure.
hm, you could tell me what to do. siguro baka electronica, or kung hindi. just a guitar. don't worry, i sound like crap.
and i dont want crap. lol classical wala, if nobody owns it that is. copyright holds up to 60 years after someone's death unless somebody owns it. but usually classical yung mga walang copyright.
