This is a tough one because I didn't like the kid much before we started. I think I was much more difficult to work with on this project. I would show up about 10 to 15 minutes late every time we made an agreement on meeting times. Russ and I hadn't much experience with Final Cut Pro, or at least he hadn't (I'm just bad at it.) Things took a lot longer than I thought they would. When we would set two hours out of the day to work on something, it would take at least four. Russ is ambitious and always willing to go the extra mile. I was very impressed with his taste and work ethic. There are a couple of changes I would make if I could go back but overall I am very satisfied with the work we did. I found this project more enjoyable then the first one. Every night there was a crazy hippie named Dustin in the lab, he is actually a genius and got us out of problems the entire time. By the end of the project, I started to remember how to use Final Cut. I was pretty amazed with the sounds you can create with the effects on Final Cut. I did not really think we could make anything out of what we were given, I was wrong. Experimental has really allowed me to explore all aspects of filmmaking. I enjoyed working with Russ very much but will not miss him.

You're getting so much FCP practice it will come to you eventually. Like driving a stick shift...one day it will just click and then nothing that has come before will make sense any longer.
And Russ, if you read this, feel free to bop Brad on the head for being rude.
Haha yeah this project helped me a lot and its coming I can feel it and hopefully Russ has the same sense of humor I do and will understand it was an insecure way of giving a compliment. When you meet someone that becomes competition, sometimes trying to tear them down is the only way
