Aaaaanddd, we're off... wherein "we" means "my computer" and "'re" means "is"

So, remember how my computer was turning itself off during rendering? Now it turns itself off during whatever. I get about three minutes after boot before the thing just turns itself off. Then I have to wait for about a day before it comes back. Needless to say, this is going to affect the production schedule somewhat. I'll be breaking into my emergency 3rd credit card to purchase a new computer.

I'm still taking donations and selling CDs, however, so if any of y'all are excited to see this project complete a little sooner than later, by all means, I'm willing to accept help. More than willing.

In other news, production for The Exploding Girl wrapped on saturday. It was an extremely intensive and intimate shoot with a small crew, small cast, and a small budget. Camera department was awesome, and brought me up to speed on the first day. And everybody had to pick up a little slack since we didn't actually have any G&E. I've made some great friends and colleagues on this project, and I look forward to working with them again in the future.
