[gobs story]

:production manager for the olney theatre.
:opening night for steve martin's adaptation of the underpants.

i decided take a chance and shoot film.
low lighting and cramped quarters made it difficult, but it was good practice.
it's not the most beautiful work in the world, but i've made the decision to give this photojournalism thing a try..
so i guess it's time to tell stories.


[even though i love them.. i'll spare you the AP style captions]



jenna.


tiny booth.


reviewing lines and checking the wire.


blocking. [gorgeous stage]


i only caught the last half of the play, but i'd assume the other half was just as good. farce comedy with a flare for feminism and anti-anti-semitism.
olney maryland was strange, but delightful.
tjmaxx, farm land, parking lots, and some weird catering company that made me throw up :]

that's the kind of nice thing about photojournalism.
you have an excuse to do things and go places you would have otherwise had no reason to pursue. maybe i'll end up a richer person.

my core class has been shooting a lot of these hit and run 5 picture stories.
they seem pretty simple, but they're really demanding on the schedule.
to find access to strangers, photograph, and compile the work for each week isn't that easy.
and it has much to do with luck.

i've grown cranky, tired, and lazy.
sick, unmotivated, and bored.

moments and faces.


we'll see what happens. i'm just trying to stick it out.
i can at least say that i know i'm good company.
