Born: August 20, 1992 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA

I chose to leave public school. I was kind of bullied . . . Everyone signed a petition that said, “We all hate Demi Lovato”.

[on Joe Jonas] He is my best friend. He has always been my best friend.

The only thing I could see myself doing is music – songwriting or producing or something. I’ve never seen myself being in any other business, I’ve been working in this one since I was 5 years old! I could do other things, but I wouldn’t want to.

[on her role in Camp Rock (2008)] It was a confidence booster. My character and I both like to rock out and now we’re not afraid to!

[on Miley Cyrus] She’s my best friend, so you better watch out. I will defend her for the rest of my life.

Happy Birthday: Misha Collins

[on the 2012 apocalypse] Good news! The Mayan calendar ends & we all die tomorrow so we don’t have to plan for the future! Hence, I’m not wearing a condom right now! But now that I think of it I never wear condoms when I’m fully clothed & checking my email.

I got involved [in “Caspian”] very late, very late, literally a couple of weeks before they had to start shooting. I think they were desperate, at this point. ‘Whoever walks in the door next, THAT’S the guy.’ And it was me. (The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, May 13, 2008)

[on how he made Christian Bale and Jennifer Lawrence win Oscars] I would never say that I made these guys win anything. I would say that it was my privilege to aspire and to create a predicament that is twisted and human and allows them to have roles that will show as much behavior and emotion as possible. That’s my goal. I want to deliver that to them. It’s my job. To create a role that is vast and complicated and emotional…

Born: August 20, 1956 in Rochelle, Illinois, USA

I was very shy, but was desperate to meet boys. So my sister told me to be a cheerleader. I didn’t make cheerleading squad, so I thought, “Why not try out for a play?” As soon as I did I found out I absolutely loved it. I could cry and scream and laugh, but in a controlled environment.

Obviously there’s something very seductive about movies, which can be attractive in a bad way if you’re doing them for the wrong reasons – for money, or for fame. I hope I won’t ever do that. I don’t feel at home in LA, I feel like I’m on holiday. It’s nice to dip your feet in occasionally, but I think it’s probably quite unhealthy to spend too much time there at once.

Today’s Quotes: Special Effects Coordinator Donnie Dean (Emmy Winner – American Horror Story)

festreviews Uncategorized

WILDsound Festival's avatarWILDsound Festival

The final episode of American Horror Story: Coven was one of my favorites. We had to perform virtually every effect from the entire season in one night of shooting. The biggest moment for us was the tracking shot of Emma Roberts in the bathtub when the camera comes in and you see the fireplace light, then the bubbles fill the tub, and with a wave of her hand the candles on the floor light spontaneously. There was no VFX required in that shot, although it took 3 takes to get the timing right. Between the time it takes to ignite a fireplace and the bubbles filling a tub alone its a very difficult thing to provide cues. The call goes to the technicians ear (because he can’t see the set) then there is a delay to his hand moving the valves, and then the time for the propane to travel…
