Catholic in Film School

Some updates on life:

• School is over and done with. Got my grades back and did well per usual. I’m a senior in college now. (OMG how did this happen?! I need a panic button.)
• Since the semester is finished, so are both of my internships, though I haven’t technically left either company. I’m helping out with the Angelus Student Film Festival, a subsidiary of Family Theater Productions. Basically, I’m just a juror for the films. And let me tell you, I find myself more entertained by the artistry of my fellow student filmmakers than the crap coming out in theaters this summer. Just sayin.
• Things are progressing at Origin. I’m not modest in saying that I am the best intern that has ever graced their office…for reasons I’m not legally allowed to write about itjust yet. I took a month-long vacation but will be going back to work in a few weeks. Yay me…cuz Lord knows I miss seeing the 90210 kids all the time.
• The various ministries I’m involved with are blossoming beautifully. If you’re in the SoCal area, please do make your way to a Catholic Underground LA event one of these Saturdays. We have an awesome summer line up.
• I suppose it was sort of only a matter of time before my two blogs collided. I start production on my summer project next week. Decent Exposure is a formation series for Catholic teenage girls where they learn about modesty, chastity, fashion, and womanhood from Catholic models, actors, and random people of interest like myself. After four weeks of formation, we will be hosting a modest vintage-inspired fashion show in Orange County. In addition to helping with the actual program, I will be directing a reality show of the series to be put on DVD for parishes, schools, parents, etc. We wanted to do a webisode series, but there have been some legal conflicts and it may not be able to happen. (I should have gone into entertainment law…that’s where all the money is…)
• Oh…and I am making an honest attempt to finish my screenwriting portfolio. I’m trying dearly to be disciplined about it…writing during the summer is tough for me.
