Utah, Oregon, and other randomness.

It’s been a busy few weeks  and I’ve had no time to update my blog. So I’ve devised a plan to write shorter blog entries. They’ll be less intimidating to write and easier to read, and hopefully I can keep up to date easier.

That’s the plan anyway. So here’s the skinny on what I’ve been up to:

After returning from NYC a couple of weeks ago, I had to turn in an edit quickly. After I completed editing the video, I had a day to pack and then flew to Moab, Utah and then to Bend, Oregon to shoot outdoor adventure content for REI. I am going to write two separate blog entries for those trips in the next couple of days.

I returned last Friday night and have been busy editing the footage. I must say I am happy with the results of the first two, and I can’t wait for you to get a chance to see them. Hopefully I’ll wrap up editing this week and will have a couple of weeks before my next assignment.

I feel so fortunate to have REI as a client. They send me to such cool places and they are easy to work with. They have faith in my creative choices, which gives me a lot of pride and sense of ownership in my work.

Over the next couple of weeks, I want to work on other creative endeavors such as a comic book series that I began writing for young children. I’m writing the scripts and am working with my friend Ron who is a comic book artist and bandmate from The Tobasco Donkeys. I’ll keep the details secret until release.

I also will be stepping up my marketing for The Philmont Documentary Collection for the holiday season, and pursing other freelance filmmaking leads. I’d like to work on songs for the next Tobasco Donkeys album, but that may be pushing it.  That gave me another thought for a blog post idea. How I manage my time, my daily routine, juggling several projects at a time and making the most out of every day. It’s something I am very proud of. I can’t stand wasted time and so I have every day scheduled to the hour. This may seem dull but since I have been doing it for the past few years, it has been immensely rewarding. There are so many goals I want to complete before my time is up, that I just want to make everyday count. I’ll call the post, The Tao of Larry.

Thanks for reading my randomness. I swear I’ll be more focused in future posts. I’d be thankful if you subscribe to my blog.

Cheers,

Larry
