The pre-production for Vivre Sa Vie! is not going well. That would be an understatement. Sobo bowed out due to hectic schedule revealed for the next last two months here at Full Sail, and Luke doesn't want to either. UPM is not fun job. Most of logistic parts to take care so that people can actually make creative decisions to execute a film production. Nope, I couldn't see it myself in it, but I maybe pulling double-duty if I want to make this film as an UPM. There are not many I can trust with this important position...

I found that I have to talk to Dave Franco, the head of feature film course, in order to get some support from Full Sail making this film, like borrowing rooms for pre-pro meetings and casting sessions, etc. I send him a pitch email but he's a busy man. I will have to go in and talk to him face-to-face.

Part of me wants to throw in the towel because it would be easier way out of this messy situation. I easily make a mistake of judging a task easier than what it really requires of me. I've gotten better, but this is my first film production endevor, and won't be my last. It would be a great practice, yet... like the guys bowed out of the UPM position, I also have to finish homeworks for the courses, look for a job, not to mention re-edit Silent Witness that was lost by some freak computer accident, look after a place to live after the graduation, finish scripts, etc. No, I can do this. Even Korean soccer team won then-impossible first win at World Cup today... actually yesterday. I will prevail.
