Tempus Fugit on Twitter

Good grief. Time has flown by since I updated this blog last. I've got a couple of good reasons - one being the ongoing post-production struggle for my most recent short film, the unfortunately titled "Undone" (Larry, my A.D., has long suspected that I've totally jinxed myself with that one... I choose to be less superstitious than that). More on that project later.

The other reason is Twitter.

I doubt I have anything new to say on the subject (of Twitter in particular or social networking in general), but I will say that when I finally embraced Twitter it was with the intention of becoming part of the independent film-making community. And I'm there. I've seen films I wouldn't otherwise have seen, films made by passionate outsiders to the commercial filmmaking industry, driven by passion and commitment to their craft - dream chasers all. And I'm proud to count myself among their number.

I could go on and on about what I've seen and who I've encountered on there... but it's something you have to experience for yourself. Like blogging, or in fact anything in this life, you get out of it what you put into it. If you haven't already, dip your toe in the wide river of flowing information on Twitter. There's something for everyone there... Maybe join me... @d0kk... Everyone I follow on there is absolutely worth following.

And 'Undone'? We're getting there, inch by inch. I approached this project as a neophyte producer, determined to learn from my mistakes. And I've made plenty. But we're nearly there. I'll keep you posted as we approach the first public screenings. Stay with me. It'll be worth it.
