New job, new pants, new hair

We've been busy hence the lack of new posts. Here's what we've been up to:
- One application + one interview = one new (temporary) job for me. I will be working for the Toronto International Film Festival in the box office of the industry venue. I'm very excited about the staff movie pass.
- Aren had an all day workshop with Ron Sanders, David Cronenberg's editor (he has edited all of Cronenberg's work except two very early shorts). He is a humble, articulate man at the absolute top of his field.
- Caribana! A little different than I expected, the 'masqueraders' didn't really do anything. They just walked along, eating or occasionally dancing. People were loving it though.
- We have found the perfect binders (Aren got the orangey-red one and I got the black and white one). They are made by Russell + Hazel and we love them becuase they are simple, elegant and practical. It took a little detective work to get them as no one in Toronto carries them (or has heard of them). If only they were made by a Canadian company.
- I started working on the dance show that will be presented here called 'The End'. It's pretty fun so far: it's inspired by film noir and horror/thriller movies so very stylized, all black and white and patent leather. The dancers are really nice too.
- We have watched most movies in the cinemas right now. Pirates, Clerks II, The Road to Gitmo, An Inconvient Truth, The Devid Wears Prada, thumbs up, Superman thumbs down.
- The weather has cooled which we are both enjoying. Apparently, humidity makes it easier to move as the air is supported more of your body than normal.
- Aren got a haircut.
- Today, I bought pants/long shorts/culottey things that fit perfectly. Straight off the rack. This rarely happens.
- I had an interview with the artistic director of one of the most well known modern/contemporary dance companies in Canada. Fingers crossed that something comes out of it.
- Aren is currently doing an exercise at the CFC (production 3) where he will have to edit 4 short films, over 2 weeks, that were written by the writers and directed by the directors. They are being shot in the Toronto Film Studios, inside of a jail cell and an empty apartment. He is also working on 4 script ideas to pitch for an upcoming production exercise.
- There are a few photos of our apartment below: the deck, looking the length of the apartment from the deck to the street, my studio and our bedroom (the living area is just on the other side of the wall you see in the picture).
