It’s been too bloody long since my last post here. I have no excuse. This must be the least efficient blog in the blogosphere. Equally proportionate with the number of readers I have. Not that I do not appreciate you dropping by – not at all (by all means).

You can actually make a search for it and you will find lots of entries dealing with the same issue. This blog posts entries regarding lack of entries. Great.

Oh sod it. So be it. Which I think is the same conclusion I always end up with also. Haha.

Hopefully soon I will have some fresh photos up here. My problem has also been that I seem to have some troubles with Flickr and my mail account. I rely on it for posting images here and simultaneously on Flickr. It’s a sort of automation tool I created and it works very well, but my mails does not seem to go through to Flickr. I have been promised an answer regarding this for a couple of months now but all I get i silence. So perhaps I need to rethink. But hopefully soon. Actually, I think I have an image or two lying in the pipeline… Got to get to them asap.

Then what else is there? Oh, yeah. I am preparing for the creation of two small movie productions. One is a behind-the-scenes piece that’s going on a DVD for an upcoming Danish movie (called ‘Remix‘, formerly known as ‘Pop’), and a programme that is related to the film’s theme. A programme that is going to be aired on national television in the spring of 2008. The network needs to approve by 100% sometime very soon, but there should be a 99% chance of that.
The theme? In short: what it takes to become famous. Too many people does not regard professionalism as a craft and believe that all there is to it is the ever famous fifteen minutes of fame, and your life is set. This preached by the media who are spitting out programmes with talentless people winning contests and fame. It seems like you don’t need to have skills, you don’t need to have talent, you don’t even have to work for it. But reality is that only 0.1% end up creating a career out of nothing. 99.9% of creative professionals (75% of them being people you never ever hear of) have made their career out of 99% excruciating, demanding, up-the-hill work and 1% pure, indisputable talent (hey, that’s a lot of %’s). Most of these people never make a living out of it, having part time jobs on the side. At least this is how it is in Denmark, and hopefully my programme is going to show people the facts about this.

Let’s see how it ends up. It’s a huge challenge and frankly, I’m a bit nervous about it, i.e. I have performance anxiety. But one step at the time, I guess…

Stay tuned. Hopefully I’ll ‘see’ you soon. And in the meantime: take care.

On this day...
