Just got back from a quick stint in Vegas for the Las Vegas Cultimate National Ultimate Frisbee Championship, “Trouble in Vegas”. The shoot was a documentary produced by T11 Films, Cineflock, and DavidMarcusFilms on the University of Miami team who came with 2 goals- party hard and play even harder. It was a great time [...]

9:15am we catch 12. One of us… won’t say who… let’s just say he has a ‘J’ in his name somewhere- forgot his badge. The ol’ 2 go in, 1 comes out, bathroom swap, and then 2 others go in separately. Basically we Oceans 11ed it. Seamless. If there were priceless jewels on display we [...]

_____8:30am is Holy Rollers. Starring Jesse Eisenberg, and Justin Bartha (the amazing Riley from the National Treasure films) the film depicts the true events of Hasidic Jews smuggling ecstasy from Europe. Eisenberg does a good job, but he’s not the best pick the role. As an AWESOME, EXPERT film reviewer suggested to me, it would [...]

_____9:15am Nowhere Boy. This great film is the young John Lennon story. It’s very well made, and one doesn’t get the hint of independent (meaning low budget) anywhere. The film’s focus is John’s struggle with his estranged birth mother and aunt who raised him. Gets redundant, but never loses focus. Really enjoyed it.  We burst [...]

Wake up early for an 8:30am Lucky. It’s the 27th! The student film pass has finally kicked in! No more lines, now we just flash the badge (well- before 11am and after 11pm) We head to the library, which is a funny theater because there are classes going on for school in the building. The [...]

_____”Dave- it’s 7:45, the movie’s at 8:30.” Thanks Jorge. We bought tickets for this one already, so we’re up in a hurry. And putting on all of our layers, boots, passes, wallets, guides and cameras is a whole event of itself. We call the front desk to call us a cab, but they fail. “No [...]

_____Another slow-to-wake day. Something about the elevation, standing for so many hours, dehydration, layers and layers of clothes… it makes ya tired. We originally planned the day to be a Ski day… but we’re tired…ya. So we’re up, grab some lunch at Maxwells- a yummy buffalo chicken pizza. Now, I think that we’ll be waiting [...]

A take it easy day. We get up at 11 and drool over the tv- the Discovery Channel seems to always be on. Learning a lot. Like what things look like getting hit with a bullet at 1000+ frames per second. Brunch-time came and we through on just enough clothes to make it downstairs to [...]

_____Bus time 11:15am – 12:15pm… these buses take forever. Forget trying for the film. Let’s hit lunch at the Marriot. Oh hi James Franco sitting across from me! var gaJsHost = ((“https:” == document.location.protocol) ? “https://ssl.” : “http://www.”); document.write(unescape(“%3Cscript src=’” + gaJsHost + “google-analytics.com/ga.js’ type=’text/javascript’%3E%3C/script%3E”)); try { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(“UA-12654543-1″); pageTracker._trackPageview(); } catch(err) {} [...]
