"The Disbanding"

Hello again cheerful readers!

I have started a new and tremendous project that will probably drive me a bit further into complete and utter insanity... however, I am very excited about it! But that's probably because I just started. But hey, this is my united states of whatever. Who needs sleep right? Pshaw.

So anyway, as some of you probably know my film group, Complementary Colors Cinema is disbanding. It's sad, yes, it's tragic, of course, BUT it also gives me a plot for another film! I'm awful, yes but whatever.

So to celebrate the short year-ish we had together I am creating a film, very similar to the first film we made together. It breaks my heart that Tiger cannot be here in Montgomery making plaster people with me but I will trudge on regardless. Her creative madness lives on in my heart.

So the movie will be gin with interviews of all the colors... This will be done over the course of time because some of us are a 1000 miles away. It will be the set up for the next part of the film which will be me creating a monument to CCC, in plaster. After I'm done I will mention how I look forward to seeing how this work and how all of our projects will move and grow and become something better and more exciting. I guess this is just how the six of us operate as people, we grow and change and try to be better and do better. At least that's the goal.

Anyway, so the film cuts to six plaster casts which have dreadlocks growing out of their heads and up into the ceiling (this is because Tigger and I have dreadies of complementary colors when we first started this whole thing) after a some beautiful camera work by moi, the plaster will suddenly be real people! painted while draped in canvas.

After some more set up shots one by one the plaster people (now turned real) walk away. we each go out separate ways, just like the real people, and get on buses, bikes, cars and go away. The blue hair one (me) will be the last to leave. Eventually I will walk out side and toward downtown. the differance with me is that the paint will start to walk away and eventually my canvas will fall and I'll be me as I normally am and I'll just keep going and walking without noticing the final change.

This also signifys that I'll be graduating soon and out on my own and become my own person.

*whew* this is getting long...

Anyway a special thanks to Jazmine, Eric, James, Ky, Nathan, Kyle, Kyla, Daliah and Lisa for being such willing victims... models, I mean models... yeah.

lovelovelove,
Boz

p.s. check back in a few weeks for the full facebook photo album of the plaster process WOOT! Till then here's a taste...


First model! Eric Andrews will be playing the role of Paul Hendricks who is known as Pollywog and represents the color green in Complementary Colors Cinema. I can't say enough how totally awesome Eric was for me.


Jazmine Ogle will be playing to role of Ashley Mitchell who is known as Smashly and represents the color purple in CCC. James Pham will be playing the role of Greg Nishikawa who is known as Dirty Pig and represents yellow/gold in CCC.


Boz will be playing herself! I will be the only original member of this group to be in this film. I go by Boz and represent Blue in CCC. It makes sense to me that other people will be playing the original members... basically people grow and change and this is literately showing people changed. Whatever, makes sense to me.
