0425 steady & fear

0425 steady


alright. today is the 3rd day of BISFF and in the first 2 I've seen 17 short films, some of them 20-30 minutes in length, all of them well made, some of them not to my taste, some that blew my fucking mind, most of them have somehow expanded my understanding of cinema, art, sound, storytelling, life, being, etc.

This week is (almost) all about the festival and when I'm not watching amazing things on a large screen with beautiful sound in a big dark room with people who appreciate more or less what I appreciate (I assume), I'm thinking about, internalizing and reflecting on what I've witnessed. This includes what happens at the guest visits (GV) and guiding commentary by the programmers (PG) before and after the screenings. I deliberately prioritize these to the non-GV and PG screenings. 

Then I wake the next morning and make a piece of music and do accompanying visuals. Today I'm alternating between excited inspiration and creative paralysis due to imposter syndrome.
