I now sleep every other day storyboarding,sleep 2009-01-20T07:52:00-08:00 Now that the rewrite is complete I've got my work really cut out for me--storyboarding. And it always takes longer than I think it will. It's very tempting to rush the process, but the whole idea behind it is to really think about the scene, the characters and what that means for the camera. If you rush it, you shouldn't have bothered. That said, I've been up all night and I only have 34 shots done--out of I'm guessing nearly two hundred. Normally that would be pretty good progress, but we start shooting on tuesday. Ah! We'll see what happens. Hopefully, I'm just all wrong and started with the hardest scene; it's not likely. Strangely enough I planned to be up all night long before I planned to storyboard tonight. Over the past couple days I decided to try something new with my sleep schedule--which has always been a little... off. Maybe a "little" is an enormous understatement. Anyway, I stopped drinking caffeine a while back and that helped a lot, but I had a problem--I sleep a lot! Way more than normal people, and I have way better things I could be doing with my time. It wasn't long ago that I realized it was often easier for me to not sleep than it was to wake up consistently. So I'm trying something based on that: Sleeping every other day. It sounds crazy, and it might be; it's just an experiment. Basically I can kinda get everything I want: be awake at all hours of the day--they all have their different uses--sleep for like 12+ hours straight, and get an average of six to seven hours of sleep per day. Feel free to call me crazy--I always have been. But I'm curious to see how this works... 2009-01-20T17:25:13-08:00 16
