jedi mind tricks?????? hmmm i wish i posessed such powers. that or the ability to vulcan mind meld

Charming people , who talk too well, can be intimidating. Or maybe that's just me.

Got to hang some lights yesterday in class... I have an installation piece going up on the 12th... Ug.

Break a leg!! (in general - because people don't say it often enough!)

You know you love practicum, every bloody minute of it... (Or at least when you're in props). I enjoy practicum time, but free labour for shows on top of class work gets ridiculous. Still... there's no business like it.

Existentialism in a set design? That RULES. You'll have to take pictures so I can ooh and aah.

Sounds awesome!!!
I LOVE meeting cool theatre people... And thinking of all the fun projects!... Getting PAID is even better!!

The Props guy at U of A worked on Hedwig the play... Not nearly as impressive as Star Wars, but it meant a lot to me, since I LOVED that show.
A cosume designer I've worked with also worked with Kubrick and Erte!... Also met the design asst. for Quills and Sleepy Hollow.
How I would KILL to work on shows like that!.... Someday, someday.

So was I.

Nice picture, by the way...

btw, you ever get into any of that classic rockabilly? you know, Perkins, Duane Eddy, Gene Vincent, etc.

Also, you ever hear about how Carl Perkins (who wrote "Blue Suede Shoes") had a stroke of bad luck that cost him the title of King of Rock n Roll. Apparently, he got into a car accident on his way to perform on a TV show. Months later, Elvis took the similar sound to the TV and rest is history.....

I hate to be an ass...but you've requested my friendship twice. My general rule is you gotta leave a comment or something before doing that...just so I like, know who you are and crap.

Nothing personal

You definitely made the right choice not to go into social work. You're friend painted a VERY accurate picture of what it's like. Although I worked with domestic violence victims who are disabled. I was the deaf/hard of hearing specialist.

As for going back to school...no shit! I spend my day surrounded by 18 year old little boys!! Half the time it feels like I'm getting a second chance to relive my childhood. The other half of the time I just want to sit alone and think adult thoughts...whatever THOSE are! And since those little boys don't want to hang out with the old biddy in the class...and since I moved far away from home to do this...I have an AWFUL lot of time to myself to think those thoughts. (still not sure what they are)

Anyway, thanks for leaving me a comment I hope there aren't any hard feelings or whatever. I'm just a cranky old lady that way

Who designed it? That rules! I'll have to find a photo of our crayfish pour vous.

The highlight of my week was the props shops! The head of props is francophone, so I even got to practice my French around him - amidst all the leatherwork for Beau Stratigem, laster this semester. I'll be stitching, soon, as well.

Happy Props-making!

Robert? Ha!
He designed South Pacific at Red Deer College when I was there. It looks as though I'll be taking a class with him next year, as well.
The version of the show I worked on by designed by Colin Winslow (also of U of A fame). He's now my drawing prof, and I lurve him! So scathing and great.

Yes, I think most theatre people are quite mad. It's comforting, really.

Whoa! That's awesome! Just stopped in to see what you've been up to. I especially love the glowing skulls. Everythings cooler if you make it light up. At least in my humble opinion.

Glad to here your grandad is doing well.

There are enough opportunities in graphic design, but I'm not even sure what I wanna do with myself. I really want to work more with animation or even 3-d.

tomorrow I have to present my proposal for my degree project yet again. I han't even got a clue as to what medium I want my work to be in the end. Good luck comming up with your next project idea!

Hah, in my former appartment I had to keep reattaching the chain from the plug in the toilet to the floaty thing with a paperclip.

'night

hey.... hope everything is OK....

Thanks.

Nice tattoo! It must be crazy to see something you've drawn on someone's skin!

How did the skulls go?

As for Los Straightjackets, they are even better when seen with The Pontani Sisters!

Her tattoo is kinda weird to look at, cause when I do i see the entire process ... what I erased, what I added. I still love seeing it though. But she's gone to Thailand and asia for at least a year. She only missed the Disaster by a week to return for the holidays, she had been there (asia) for 18 months.

I'm still working on the skulls im doing a half cast of just the fronts so my prof said to make a plasticine dam & now I'm painting on layers of latex & cheese cloth to a bout 3/8" thick.

Take it easy.
