Some things just never change.

Done with the movie. It was a long haul but in the end I was glad for the experience. I feel like I can handle almost anything after the marathon of torture we all endured on that set.

The director turned out to be two faced. I killed myself for him but like most people in his position, he either didn't appreciate it or couldn't care less. Once we moved into post production, he revealed his true colors. Told someone he thought I was green and didn't know what I was doing when I told him no about something. He got the studio involved but luckily I was backed up by an industry vet on my answer - sometimes you can't get what you want overnite and this guy just needs to learn to deal.

Now I'm back to working in tv land - working the same show and also a couple of pilots - all at the same time. Each day is fairly busy but I don't feel overwhelmed as I frequently did on the movie. And I'm no longer an assistant. After having to hire me my own assistant during the movie, I guess boss man realized it was time for me to move up. So I'm just doing the script futzing/clearances/etc stuff full time now. Plus I got a slight bump to my salary. Now if only my brood of animals weren't experiencing a sudden flood of misc. illnesses and ailments, I could actually start to put some into savings.

But as I did on the movie, I'm getting the same old "make it happen, I don't care how, I don't care if its impossible and there's not a shot in hell of it ever happening, find a way and make it come into being." on the tv show. That's one part of the job I don't think I'll ever enjoy.
