I'm in a funk and need to get out. I have no problem watching a movie a day, but find it more and more difficult to get my video projects done. Work or scheduling issues seem to keep getting in the way. An artist I know set out on a project to make a drawing a day as a way to deal with these problems. I've decided to use a Flip camera and iMovie to make one short video sketch a day. Some narrative, some not, hopefully some interesting. We'll see what happens when there are no excuses.

3.30.10 – Bridge on a Wire
My favorite bridge is about to close for seven months for repairs and painting. It’s the closest bridge to me, which makes it even more annoying. Often I pretend it’s actually the Brooklyn Bridge (it was designed by the same engineer and looks very similar) and that I’m crossing into Manhattan instead of Cincinnati. It also has that lovely sound as you cross, which made a friend nickname it the “whistling bridge.”
Of course I am enjoying seeing more and more ropes and wires go across it, making me feel I’m part of the circus each time I cross for the next week…until it closes.
