My More Successful Alter Egos

According to IMDB, I'm the seventh of the current eight Peter Chans to have a film credit- not too shabby considering how many people have the same name out there. So, being the vain person that I can be, I've discovered that I have the third most credit after the producer from Thailand with over 20 films under his belt and the special effects guy who worked on the first Harry Potter. They've got nothing on me though, I worked a short film about a gay man who was impregnanted by his one night stand.

Whatever self gratification gets me through the day....

My Ten-Day Syndrome

I've had this theory since my earlier days in this industry known as indie-filmmaking. Much like summer camp when you're younger and college groups when you're older, being around the same group of people after 12-15 hours a day for 3 weeks plus can only result in emotional and/or physical attraction if you're single. This, my friend, is known as  'The Ten-Day Syndrome'. Someone who you thought was a nice girl/guy during day one of shooting suddenly turns into someone who can bring a smile to your face just by walking near you by the time you've reach day 10. 

Perhaps this blog entry is more exclusive to my film colleagues, but I'm sure most people can relate.

My Four-Month Absence

For the few of you who've actually logged in occasionally prior to my extended, unannounced absence, I do apologize. I really should've said something.... 

If you were wondering what I've been upto in the past few months, I got caught up on one of the best sets ever shooting an independent film pending a 2009 release. Besides that, just little things here and there which I'm sure to blog about. I've really missed the constant typing my thoughts here. I know, excuses... excuses... I'm gonna try harder, I promise.
