The Calm
The calm before the storm of SXSW is really not that calm. Because I'm putting together two screenings with AFS on Saturday night. Because I'm trying to get the TFPF application ready to launch at my panel on Tuesday. And especially because my duplex will be home to somewhere between 5 and 7 people for this coming week.
For one, Andrew Bujalski is moving in permanently to my side of the duplex, so I've been moving next door to my sis's old room. Andrew actually showed up last night with about half of his stuff. Due to busy-ness and laziness, I had only cleared out a couple rooms of my side of the duplex for him, so I've still got a lot more moving to do. Then, later on last night, fellow filmmaker Alex Karpovsky, the dude behind SXSW premiere Woodpecker, moved in, too, along with his producer Adam Roffman. Alex may stay with me for up to two months, Adam is just here for the festival. Another three people may or may not be staying in the compound over the festival week. It should be an interesting time. I only wish I had spent more time getting the place ready over the last month. But, like I said - busy-ness and laziness. Two constant and complementing forces in my life.
So much to highlight in anticipation of the festival, so many films to see, of old friends and new friends and soon-to-be friends. But for now, I'll just let the Austin Chronicle highlight what I don't have time to. Everything they're highlighting in this issue is worth seeing.
