behind the camera this time...

...just sticking my nose in the "behind the camera" bizz :))

The movie shootings went on, (and after almost a week of get away from Baia to Cluj), I finnaly came back and the second day I got to assist at the "murder scene" where I was only the photographer this time, laughting and having fun behind the camera :))

It feels good to be behind the camera (it's a total new feeling), it seams that your're going through all the emotions an actor goes, and you almost learn by heart his words better and better as a scene has more than a couple of dubles ( hope that's the term in english...).

Here I am with two of the starring actors, up with Ionut Mateescu -who got full support with lost of kisses :))

- down, with Sanda Sawolski - she was one of the police officers.

...peasants that were interogated by the police... :))

Dinu, the movie director

latest acquisitions...

Every time I go to Cluj ( I spent most of the past week enjoying it), there's no way I could leave the city without a book buy ( at least one)... So this time I got these babes :))

a theatre writer that I love, Visniec... and a poet like Esenin (one of my faves) will keep me busy fo a while...great lecture anyways!

almost at the end...

I had moovie shootings all day... for minor scenes that, apparently, seem to need no worry... there's a lot of work to do behind ...
Here are some pics done in between the scenes where I had to play...
Up- meet Lati, the sound guy,
down- Codruta, designer and Mate, who was helping us a bit ( more playing ...he still has to shoot his scene...:)

told ya... :))
In the second part of the day, I had to change clothes and make up for another scene...my poor hair had to suffer a lot today (although it doesn't seem).
Thank God for the hair masks and treatments!!!

so...the movie is closely coming to an end ... I'm almost done with the shootings. The director told me that I'll have to shoot one more scene, but only if it starts snowing - it's weird...the past years by this time of november we usually already had the first snow... and now it's almost december, and it's not even close to snow. I guess this global warming is starting to get more serious than ever... too bad...

Mon Caprice night

...just going out for a coconut milkshake in a new place that I spotted the past weeks in Baia Mare, "Mon caprice". Apparently I have a new crush on 100% milk drinks...the flavour is every time a new one...cinnamon (of course), coconut, honey...

hhhmmm... just love it!

Despre omul frumos

Luna trecuta cand am fost in Cluj pentru cursurile de master, am intrat intr-una din librariile Humanitas cautand un dictionar roman - norvegian...La noutati insa, mi-a atras privirea ultima carte semnata de Dan Puric....in urmatoarele clipe m-am trezit stand aproape in usa librariei, citind pagina dupa pagina...pur si simplu m-a furat ... Aflandu-ma in continua lupta cu timpul ( mai ales cand ajung de obicei in Cluj) a trebuit sa-mi ating scopul pentru care am pasit in aceasta lume in care ma simt atat de bine... Am lasat cartea lui Puric la locul ei de cinste, promitandu-mi insa ca va fi pe primul plan al viitoarelor achizitii in materie de litere. Intamplarea a facut insa sa aflu zilele trecute ca Dan Puric va sustine la finalul lunii noiembrie la teatrul baimarean o conferinta si un workshop. Nimic mai potrivit...noaptea m-am intors din Cluj( tot Master) si a doua zi am mers la conferinta "Despre omul frumos" a lui Puric. Atatia oameni inca n-am vazut in teatrul in care lucrez de mai bine de un an.... afost literalmente bataie la intrare...sala a fost umpluta mult peste capacitatea ei de 370 de locuri. Sa nu mai amintesc faptul ca am ajuns pe sus pe unde se monteaza reflectoarele intr-o camaruta de un om(eram 4) ca sa-l vad pe acest om. Insa ce mi-a ramas in minte va fi workshopul pe care l-a tinut pentru niste studenti amatori de teatru, grup in care ne-am infiltrat (3 outsideri , sa zic asa ), pentru a mai fura un pic de meserie si-n domeniul pantomimei...si nu numai... Am fost foarte incantata de cele vazute si de cele experimentate, astfel incat daca as mai avea ocazia, as participa fara sa ma gandesc, la tot ceea ce acest om ar avea de spus si aratat.
“Dupa atat amar de bascalie si deznadejde, de autoflagelare, a sosit ceasul sa spuna cineva, patrunzator si adecvat, ca nu este chiar o nenorocire sa fii roman. Dimpotriva. Dan Puric are o alcatuire orfica – aceasta fiind opusul retoricii. Flautul sau fermecat vine din adancurile natiei si are afinitati organice cu interogatiile pe care si le-au pus in acelasi sens intelectualii interbelici. Numai ca nu foloseste semnul intrebarii in interventiile sale publice. Spre deosebire de intelectualii nostri, Dan Puric aduce cu sine afirmatia, lasand dubiile si aporiile pe seama belferilor. Leaga natia de Dumnezeu cat se poate de strans si nu vede in romani indivizi, ci persoane (…). Dan Puric n-a aparut intamplator acum. Cu o vorba a lui Iorga: vremea l-a scos in cale.” (Dan Ciachir)

sensations over facts

...what I've been up to the past days:

visited Cluj, but not for pleasure for bizz

a dense fog covered the citya bit of Sartre lecture...loved the play " Shut doors"
a delicious omlete makes always a good friendship base :)
inevitable...improvised stories with za theatre sport master, Dragos

a bit of penne carbonara at the Iulius Mall food court

not everything came out the way I wished to...so ... I left Cluj a bit disappointed

some of us ( I would of done it too...but...) really wanted to vote for their future president...It was such a madness that they got to vote only at the airport...

my latest find :)

movie shootings

Modeste Mignon c'est moi...

"O tanara fata, cu o imginatie aprinsa, inchisa intr-un foisor, moare de dorinta de a alerga prin parcul in acre patrunde numai privirea; gaseste un mijloc de a-si desfereca gratiile, sare pe fereastra, escaladeaza zidul parcului si se duce sa zburde la vecin.

Ei bine, aceea tanara fata este sufletul meu, iar parcul vecinului este talentul de care ati data dovada."

puritatea sufletului...

" Simt in mine ceva sublim despre care se poate vorbi fara vanitate. Dumnezeu mi-a rasadit in suflet radacina acelei plante hibride nascute in varful muntilor, despre care am vorbit si pe care nu vreau s-o pun intr-un ghiveci de flori, la fereastra, ca s-o vad ofilindu-se.

Nu, acest caliciu minunat, unic, cu miresme imbatatoare, nu va fi tarat in vulgaritatile vietii, el va apatine, este al dumneavoastra fara ca vreo privire sa-l pangareasca, al dumneavoastra pe veci!"

parfum celest

"Se gasesc totusi ... oameni care indragesc o viata in umbra, o munca linistita, calugari rataciti in societatea noastra care nu au o manastire a lor. Acesti mici curajosi poarta in actiunile lor, in viata lor intima, poezia pe care scriitorii o exprima. Ei sunt poeti in inima lor, prin meditatiile lor in singuratate, prin tandretea lor, asa cum altii sunt poeti pe hartie, pe campiile inteligentei si deopotriva ale versuluu."
