Today is a day I should mark on the calendar. It's the day I'm convinced I will be a success in film. Not for the money, but to be my own boss, to create my own fate. I missed an audition because I was at a job interview at a tech support call center. They put me on the phone with an agent to listen to typical calls. So an hour in I didn't even see the interviewer! so I rushed to the location I was suppose to meet Rachel. they took off without me and I called the casting director. "We are too busy to reschedule. Send me a photo and acting resume" Fuck might as well give me the kiss of death. (As I was writing this Rachel told me it wasn't worth the trip.)

Anyway today I will form a plan to build a production company. Get in the Film Summit and pitch my feature like mad.

THE PICTURE IS GOING AHEAD, I'm a 1000% positive, hell or high water. $5000 dollar budget or $125000. 5000 is a minimum for a 6 weekend shoot for craft services. $125000 is a small independent feature estimate if I pay everybody. If it is volunteer (NB Film Coop style) there will be valid deferral contacts that will mean something. It will take a year after production in the film festival circuit, but I guarantee dividends from being my own distributor. I have a long fuse, but today's running around for nothing is not my idea of living. I want to live on my on time. wanna talk to me? YOU see me on my schedule!

"One Wheel for Canada" will be on-line shortly, the greatest internet marketing ploy for a film since "Blair Witch Project".

Today October 21st 2008. Joseph Dennis Poirier is officially a career filmmaker
