And history rewritten by an ape.

I'm afraid that I didn't have time to eat this morning and ended up editing on an empty stomach. Twitchy, I think, and banging my head against the inpenetrable façade of Final Cut Pro. We're mostly done, really down to the nitty-gritty work of putting the sound in, making sure the volume for each piece is audible, and fine-tuning the edges of things. It is a maddening psychodrama played out between the Perfectionist side and the Desperate side. The desire to splatter electronic guts everywhere--

But otherwise, the film is shaping up. Steph and I toyed with a concept for the music video, centred around my long time desire to do a "rotating shot" at a Chinese restaurant, with the camera on one of those rotating table platforms. I think they have them at Ming's.

And tomorrow is Michael's birthday!
