one way ticket to midnight

iadeas eh.. i will write down whats on my mind right now but i will promise u the final product will resemble nothing of these word i will write for you. i stay this because soo far every idea i have had has evolved into something completely different than my original idea. So as for research so far i have looked around my house first of to find recording devices that are not video cameras. Both roommate i live with have macs so thats to internal webcams for starters. I have a digital camera myself with video capabilities or stop motion abilities which is something ive been getting into alot. i do have scanner but its not working sooo well so i might smash it with a hatchet. could be part of my video concept as well. I wet on to do more research i saw a commercial about a crayola light pad type dealeo so i ventured to toy r us to look around for gadgets. i did not find the pad but i did go to the electronics isle .. yeh they do have one of those now... when i was a kid they didnt. and i refuse to get my child and cell phone before middle school .. fuck that i was fine .. but instead of toy trucks and star wars toys like i ejoyed every christmas kids now get ipod and hana montana video cameras. anyyyyywaayyyy theres a whole sections of digital camera web cams and "kiddie" video cameras i was quite unaware you could buy a video camera for under 100 dollar i was tempted i sure love that hana's jams but lucky i wasnt sucked in .. yet .. i couldnt really find much to help but i did walk out with a "color explosion coloring pad" and sponge bob ice cream pop.. soo cynical of toys r us to put icea cream right next to the cash register who is gunna say no to there kid right in front of the employees. As for the conceptual aspect i was thinking about a rotoscoping type of idea but i guess there no telling whats going to happen until the 48 seconds is actually counting down. getting a little taste of being timed to film a scene this thursday with the 3d glasses shoot was kind of intimidating. it was much harder than i thought so as for i will keep writing down ideas and hopefully i can inoperate the object cleverly in my concept. i think the biggest thing im scared of is choking at the last second and settling because of the 48 hour limit. hopefully all will be right in the universe for me.
