I just woke up from yet another weird dream. The first part involved perhaps a foreshadowing of what is to happen today - the supposed final shooting of my 3rd short (or perhaps 1st A.I. [after id.]) as I think I remember seeing the actor and my production partners in the film there. However, at some point in time, I don't know how it came about but I was suddenly watching a live shooting of an animated film. Yes I think I remember seeing animated people move and go about. It was Keanu Reeves and a girl (who may either be the real actress I'm working with right now or Winona Ryder [who is in fact the former's co-star in A Scanner Darkly, the film which I think I am watching, which I realized just now that it isn't because I don't think that film had any romance in its theme; it was more like my perception of the film that would succeed Before Sunset only more... I don't know, thrilling - just like my work {Gobi for instance and my other film noir ideas locked up in my head}? {so in fact, my analysis that I could probably be involved in the actual shooting might actually have a sense of truth}] I don't know) who in the last scene were sitting in perhaps a dining room of a small unit and then a man who is stealthed, looking like an exposed picture, appears and gets a gun then shoots Keanu and then the girl. After that I felt a combination of shock and depression for artistic reasons I have yet to reflect on. Soon after that I woke up to see my actress asking me to wake her up in case her alarm clock fails to do so.

What a beautiful way to begin my day. This day has indeed been the most anticipated day for me this year. I am hoping to accomplish everything I had established in reality and in my head. Otherwise, I might have to get myself a revolver and shoot myself or get another person's girl and let the guy shoot me or better yet, just pray that I die like Gandhi - have an assassin shoot me three times whilst I whisper the words "I am a filmmaker" (in Indian accent of course [like Apu!]). I am psyched to finish production and thanks to my dream, start writing another one.
