It is currently a little after four-thirty in the morning. I am going to be going to sleep in a few minutes. I have started yet another blog after doing several and letting them fall to the wayside. I plan on keeping up with this blog from now on as I get things ready to go with my studio. I will be posting some reviews I have written from the Blu-ray website over here. I plan on slowly copying and pasting them for you to read here; as well as share news from the studio front.
I am finally deciding to make the jump and getting a new computer for editing and studio work. My piece of shit Toshiba laptop that I have been stuck with for almost three years is giving up the ghost. It took it fifteen minutes to boot up tonight after I clicked "Restart". I am looking for a desktop and basically just getting a tower. I have decided on passing on getting a monitor and having the tower hooked up to my Vizio via VGA. My television's HDMI ports are both occupied by my Insignia "Region Free" Blu-ray player and my PS3. I could get an HDMI switcher, but I am too strapped for cash right now.
Today is payday and after I get my checks in the bank and have them go on my credit card, I am going to be ordering some stuff off eBay. I am going to be getting an ethernet CAT-V cable to connect my PS3 to the internet and getting 100 feet of speaker wire to have my ancient sound system completely hooked up. Five of the seven speakers are currently connected, but I need to get wire to have my two big speakers connected in the back of the living room. I am also keeping my eyes peeled on a Multi-System VCR.
In the next week or two, I will be listing my DVDs up on Craigslist and other places. I am selling them off to pay for equipment and put some of that money towards getting film and shooting on my Super 8mm camera. I will also be putting some of the money towards getting my film print of Nosferatu transferred over to HD. Even though shooting in HD is more simplistic, I would love to shoot on film and to go through the whole process of having the film negative transferred over and edit it digitally on my computer.
Going back to Nosferatu, I am excited towards getting it out on Blu-ray when the time comes. It has been a favorite of mine for years and since it is Public Domain, I am happy to add it to my legacy. It is the granddaddy of all Vampire films; it's the first film! I stumbled across the copy of the film when I lost out on a chance to get Night of the Living Dead. As soon as I saw it listed from the seller, I notified him and paid up A.S.A.P.
Well, it's getting late. I got to get some sleep and then pay for some video tapes I got on hold for me; one being the Indonesian rip-off Lady Terminator. I will be giving some updates on Saturday about the horrific process and a great update on my first feature Traumatic Possession 3D. Stay tuned...
