In Expert Opinion

Early morning procrastination blues... Well, something I really enjoy and recommend to other people is going to the Fox Searchlight's Searchlab website. There are all kinds of pros on there who give out free master classes that you can tune in to. Now I know a lot of us have nice shiny noses we like to turn up at Hollywood with, but trust you me there are many reasons for actually tuning in to these lectures:

1) It's excellent if you want to procrsastinate
2) Sometimes you get to contradict, and that's always good if you're going through a self-depracating, i-feel-so-dumb-i-think-i-go-to-I.K mode...
3) Sometimes it contains useful everyday tips that make you go: huh! definitely never thought about that. For example: Ron Bass the writer of Rain Man who is speaking at the site right now (wow, really creepy image) says that he never tries to write the scenes in the film right away, instead he waits to finish the organization adn the basic blocking so that he is not committing to the first ideas that come to his head... I'm sure Clnt Eastwood would disagree but that's actually interesting to think about.
4) Seriously, you would go to these lectures if they were on campus right? So, why not.
5) What the hell better are you going to do with your time boy!?
