London's National Theatre Puts Trailers on YouTube
The National Theatre is promoting its productions with trailers on YouTube. They're not great, but the idea's definitely got potential(from Guardian Unlimited).
Thank You Notes
I've bought some nice cards with my name on them to use for some of my thank you notes instead of photo postcards. Everyone uses photo postcards for everything, and I figure a real note on real stationary is more personal. I'll have my picture on the mailing lable on the evelope, and a card (with my name in raised lettering) the inside. I bought mine from FineStationery.com (affiliate link) they're less than five cents each (including the envelope), plus a little for shipping. I'm very happy with their work; I recommend them. I also would recommend trying not to use the UPS option of shipping; UPS can't find my house all the time, which is odd since it's always in the same place.Labels: submissions

Many Shoots in Town this Summer
With "Batman 2"/"The Dark Knight"/"Rory’s First Kiss," "The Return" (starring Rachel McAdams) and "Wanted" (starring Angelina Jolie) shooting here this summer, everyone should be busy. Meanwhile, "ER" might be stopping by and the TBS series "My Boys," which has been pretending to be "Chicago-based," might actually, finally do some shooting in Chicago(from Screen Magazine).Labels: filming in chicago, temp
