やはりいつかはそうなると思っていました。毎週ブログを更新する予定だったけど、二週間も更新しませんでした。すみませんでした。実は更新しなかったのは、数日前まで日本で仕事をしていたからです。まあ、確かにインターネットが使えたから、しようと思ったら向こうでも更新ができたけど、毎日の撮影と翌日の準備とそれなりに大変な時差ボケで仕事以外の事をする余裕があまりありませんでした。
でも、久しぶりに日本で仕事ができたのは良かったです。もう三年以上も日本で仕事していなかったけど、やはり六年間の映画、テレビ、そうしてテレビゲームの経験がある御陰でそれなりに信頼されている気がします。ロスではそうとは言えませんね。こちらの方はまだまだ新人に近い存在で、毎日頑張らなければなりません。それはそれでいい事なんだけど、かなり疲れます。
残念ながら今回日本に行って撮って来た作品名がまだ言えませんが、その内発表します。上手くいけば、今後もこういうような日本で撮る仕事が続きます。そうなったら皆さんにも伝えます。

So it was bound to happen, but I must apologize for missing a couple of weeks on my blog updates. The reason for this was that I up until a few days ago I was working in Japan. Alright, yes, I did have an internet connection and could have updated from there, but I'm afraid that between a full shooting schedule, preparations for upcoming shoots, and a healthy dose of jet lag I didn't really have the energy to deal with much else.
All complaining aside, it really was great to be back in Japan working again. It had been over three years since I had worked on a project over there. One thing that I can definitely say is that it feels really nice to work in a place where you have a substantial body of work to speak for you. With six years worth of movie, television, and video game experience, most people that I work with in Japan have a pretty clear idea of what I have done and what I can do. That really isn't the case here in LA. Here I am still very much trying to break into the industry, and while it is good to not just sit back and become complacent, it can definitely be very tiring to have to prove oneself all over again.
Unfortunately, I can't tell you what I was working on while I was in Japan, but stay tuned and eventually I will be sure to let everyone know once it is released. I am also hoping that this trip might lead to similar work in the future, as I have always wanted to work in both America and Japan. I will be sure to keep everyone updated on those developments as well.
