rinueStoryboarding is the most tiring thing I've ever done - more tiring than packing, or moving, or having an argument. I think it requires more of my brain, all at once, than other tasks - much more than simply drawing, writing, or directing - perhaps because of the effort of first conceiving and then translating to two dimensions, even though you can't really because there's movement and rhythm involved that you can only suggest.
I have discovered a wonderful book called The Faber Book of Movie Verse. As the title suggests, it is full of poems about film, stretching back to the twenties. There have been a surprising number of filmmaker poets, and poet filmmakers. We are not alone.
Yesterday, Ciro and I set up our laptops in such a way that we created the illusion of lying next to each other.
