Business Plan - Day 004

the grind.

today i realized how difficult things are going to be. it's not that i lack the drive to do this. i absolutely am committed to this, of that i'm sure. the problem comes with the fact that i'm not going to be producing results any time soon. when will i actually feel as if i'm accomplishing anything. i mean, at the moment i'm not far enough along on the business plan to feel like i have accomplished something. but i'm beginning to think that i won't feel that way until the whole process is over, which might make me feel a little subdued about the whole thing in general.

but i will finish this, of that there is no question.

on a different note, and more related to the actual business plan, i've received word back from my contacts in the film industry. indeed, studios do maintain archives of call sheets in some form. all of my contacts, however, are uncertain how often they are purged. this is something i'll need to know soon. so, on my schedule now is to contact the studios (and Academy library).

i probably won't get around to doing that this week, unless i can via e-mail (something i'll look into soon), but it will definitely happen next week at the latest.
