To bask in the desert sun and to wrap up a music video for <a href="http://www.brianlopezmusic.com/" target="_blank">Brain Lopez’s</a> “I Pray for Rain”. The video has been in the works for over a year now. We’ve had numerous setbacks, including some of the worst <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/texas-fires-kill-4-destroy-more-1-000-230345872.html" target="_blank">wildfires</a> in Texas history, but we have persevered.  </p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx585gTTgp1qz508q.png"/></p> <p>Half the video has already been shot in the beautiful town of Marfa, TX and the rest will be shot at a TBD location in Tucson, AZ. To finish this, we will need all the help we can get. We still have some pretty elaborate scenes to film which will need lots of actors/extras. So, if you are in Tucson and would like to contribute to our video, please contact me at: slimcinema@gmail.com </p> <p>The planned shooting dates are January 7th and 8th. </p>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/15149410532http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/15149410532Sun, 01 Jan 2012 18:55:09 -0500filmmakingmarfatucson<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axel_F">Axel F</a>: <p>One of my favorite movie themes of all time. </p>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/13500912724http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/13500912724Tue, 29 Nov 2011 10:01:05 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvej6f6Too1qz508qo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Packing (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am" target="_blank">instagram</a>)</p>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/13483777764http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/13483777764Mon, 28 Nov 2011 22:03:00 -0500catpackingchristmas sweatertravel<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_luv14jkF521qbvanto1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://www.magnificentruin.com/post/12967515618/marc-bijl-the-party-is-over-2003" target="_blank">magnificentruin</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Marc Bijl</strong><br/><em>The Party is Over</em><br/>2003 </p> </blockquote>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12988517242http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12988517242Fri, 18 Nov 2011 19:36:19 -0500<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lu4b053NWr1qz508qo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Sarah stands in the Big Green.</p>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12314811399http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12314811399Thu, 03 Nov 2011 23:57:00 -0400filmmakingGreenchroma keygreen screen<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltw3nxsUe51qz508qo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Sleepy Cat + Jealous Dog</p>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12122428410http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12122428410Sun, 30 Oct 2011 13:41:40 -0400lazy sundayChihuahuasleepy cat“Only dullards crippled into cretinism by a fear of being thought pretentious could be so dumb as to believe that there is a distinction between design and use, between form and function, between style and substance.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.stephenfry.com/2011/10/06/steve-jobs/single-page/" target="_blank">Stephen Fry on Steve Jobs</a> (via <a href="http://minimalmac.com/" target="_blank">minimalmac</a>)</em>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12090299784http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/12090299784Sat, 29 Oct 2011 18:12:08 -0400steve jobs<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltnhdxglfe1qz508qo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Although it might be appropriate to read it on my iPad, I prefer hardbound with a book like this.</p>http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/11933351110http://blog.ryanglenn.org/post/11933351110Tue, 25 Oct 2011 21:56:00 -0400steve jobscurrently reading<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltlq23KS8G1qz508qo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>@sarahnewby on wardrobe.
