A food revolution

Some nights this whole "post every night" thing is really tiresome.  Especially, nights like tonight when I'm just beat.  The exhaustion all comes down to preproduction.  The next 2 days are all day shoots, so you'd think those would be the days that tire me out.   But no, it's all the preprod, and I have very little responsibility at all.  I'm just running camera and am in charge of the "second unit" which is really kind of funny.  Mainly because the plan keeps changing, like every 30 minutes changing. So I really have no idea what's going to go on tomorrow. I know what we're planning, but all that might change tomorrow morning.  There's a difference between flexiblity and chaos and we're straddling that fence but good.

Changing fences...A few weeks back I read a book called Blink by Malcolm Gladwell. It's all about the decisions we make extremely quickly.  It was quite amazing and I'd recommend it, really to anyone.   I'd post more about how mind blowing it was, but my brain is really just mush.

So I'll post a lecture he gave at TED right before the book came out. It's really quite interesting.
