The Painting is over

After much procrastination I've about finished my home studio so I can begin recording. I'm trying to pick out the perfect song to start with. I'm thinking of one that I wrote about New York City a few years back. It's pretty simple, just some acoustic guitar and some mild electric leads. I'll have to sequence the drums using Logic Pro but that shouldn't be too bad. Recording can be tedious at times, only because I'm so impatient and I want a finished product NOW! I've seen some really good films this week including: The Revenant, Tender Mercies and Let me In. I'm trying to pay closer attention and really analyze the film as I'm watching instead of just...watching. I'm looking forward to beginning my screenplays for school this semester. I've got quite a few ideas but like recording the project usually takes on a mind of it's own when I sit down and begin to work on it. It's interesting the correlation between recording and screenwriting. In recording you have this idea and a basic structure of the song but when you recorded it you add little fills and other instruments. Screenwriting tends to be a lot like that because you start to see things that weren't there in the beginning. You begging to write things down and the scenes become more clearer and you get a lot of new ideas when you're typing away.
