Check out Ambient devices- basically information appliances you put in your room, which are connected to data sources, and subtly communicate information.

It’s about time, really. Although shouldn’t this be 802.11b compatible?

Britney on a budget. I wonder if she does birthday parties.

Lots of new toys today:

• found my 4 pin to 6 pin firewire cable- importing from the miniDV deck now works
• Dolly came in the mail from B&H… haven’t tried it on the tripod yet though!
• tapes and cleaner came from Tape Company
• I brought the rest of the equipment over from the old house, including the bounce
• Kirby found us some cheap halogen lights- now we need to do lighting tests to make sure they don’t make us all look like zombies

I should bring my lighting gear over too, but where am I going to put it?
Maybe the fog machine can live next to the generator in Kirby’s garage.

Development on 48 Hour Film Project:

I met two of our actresses today- Lauren and Sarah. Both of them are so young… their enthusiasm is infectious, however- we took them to noodles and my reservations about their inexperience melted away.

They seem very eager and ready to commit to our production. Now it’s up to the Development team- we owe them good lines and characters they can portray.
