The Vent Thread

[Castor Troy]

Came home yesterday to a paper duct taped to the front door. I think we're being evicted from our house.

Oh God.

Keep us updated on what happens Jen.

I'm really sorry to hear that Jen.

The same mentally unstable man we had to ban from our apple store caught the same bus as me and sat not only right in front of me and stared at me, but he then say behind me and popped off one of my earphones while I was watching something. I chose to ignore the fucker.

What made this end was rather strange

I stood up next to the door and he got off at the next stop but he walked slow and constantly looked back.

But my happy ending:

I STUCK THE MIDDLE FINGER AT HIM AS THE BUS PULLED AWAY

Less than a year ago, I bought myself a new bicycle. Now it's basically scrapmetal because it got rammed with a car by my dear beloved sister. Frame broken, wheels bent and ~850$ down the drain. FUCK!

I have a headache (what else is new), most likely failed a test, it's doubtful I'm going to do well on the two I have tomorrow, and I feel like I might not get all my work in for the end of the semester. >.>

Also, I have a headache.

I tend to visit mandy.com (a site for film jobs) just for the fun of it to see how bad the job listings are in the film industry and I came across this pile of horseshit:

http://mandy.com/1/jobs3.cfm?v=49054174 ... &terr=uscs

$1000 for 3 months of work to edit 9 web episodes.

Bullshit.

That's not even enough to cover living expenses, gas, food, etc for 3 MONTHS.

I left the industry 2 years ago to make my own stuff, and this bullshit is still going around. Attracting all the poor gullible filmmakers who want to get their foot in the door, only to be abused and underpaid like I was when I worked in the industry.

I love how the description mentions they have A-list talent from Arrested Development and The Scorpion King who were most likely extras with little to no screentime who can be hired for pennies. I also love how they have "a current slate of $280MM of films and TV shows in various stages of development".

Upon doing further investigation, if they have $280MM, then why do they still need a kickstarter page which they surprisingly raised over $5k for (most likely by begging their friends and relatives). Oh wait, they must actually only have $280.00 OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOH!

"One Warm Night has already garnered thousands of collective fans on YouTube, Facebook, Tumblr, and Twitter, and received the “Editors Pick” accolades on both Web Series Channel and Blip.TV - the leading web series platform which commands an estimated 500 million views per month. "

I love how they've garnered thousands of fans FOR A SHOW THAT'S OBVIOUSLY NOT COMPLETED YET BECAUSE IT NEEDS AN EDITOR.

I dunno how 44 subscribers on their youtube page equals "Thousands of fans", but they have nearly 2000 fans on their facebook page? which are easily purchased with fiverr "facebook like" gigs.

These people are the epitome of scumbags.

Fuck you Hollywood. Pay editors what they're worth or edit the damn thing yourselves. idunknowavid hur hur.

WHAT? You mean you don't think a signed photo from the guy who played Annyong Bluth is worth $150+?

Seriously, though, $1000 for three months? How the hell would you even pay rent with that, not even including other expenses?

I didn't realize he played Annyong until now!

I take back everything I said. These people are awesome and any editor is truly privileged to work with footage of Annyong Bluth.

I cannot stand supplication. Makes me sick!
