zemekis on cbs
the zemekis piece for 'polar express' that i sat around for aired this morning. i got up in the middle of the night and turned on the vcr (see, ancient technology is still good for something). i went to bed.
i got a call at 7am from janeann and one at 10am from my mom. wandered out, watched the piece.
its a shame - they only used 2 pieces of footage. the first is describing 'the next spielberg'. this is sad cause zemekis was talking about it in regards to new media and digital stuff. cbs cut that bit out.
the second is better, because it is me. they didnt make me look stupid (thanks cbs) but instead made me look like one of his graduate students he advises. but there i am with an isight on my head and rocking my fantastic four shirt. go nerdiness!
im not complaining too much - it did get me on national tv, if only for 10 seconds of so. you at least hear part of our dialogue as he wanders away from me.

Celebrity is such a disappoinment. I have no interest in the public personas of these people. It is their creative mental landscape that entices me.
