well that's just plain fun!

ACTING!

LOL! Thanks for the laugh, Wil.

Funny very funny
How is your back? Hope it is better.

Man, Sounds like some hard work ;)

:P

Yes. Fun!

I have become disturbingly addicted to these updates.

hope your back is better. sounds like acting is a hard job. I guess I should try it somtime. It is my birthday (25). I feel old.

Cute!

Now I have this image of Wil ala Jon Lovitz on that SNL skit. "Acting!"

Wil, I'll need your address for my therapy bill.

Sounds like you're all having way too much fun on this movie.

Hope your back's doing better, although, it could come in handy for some of the key emotional scenes. Just make sure you're sitting in a really uncomfortable position and baby, go with the pain.

The cameraman had say over the lighting! Wow, that's thuper... glad to hear the director isn't a control freak. :)

Cameraman doing lighting? Seriously? Heh.

I use the term "Cameraman" to refer to the "Director of Photography," who is in charge of the look of the film. In addition to composing the shots, he works with the Gaffer and the Key Grip to set the lights, and create the visual "mood."

Some of you may be confusing "Cameraman" with "Camera Operator," who is the guy that actually runs the camera.

Forest.

Trees.

HTH =]

Or, if you've worked on a PBS set... "Cameraman" means "Director of Photography", "Gaffer", "Soundman", "Production Assistant", "Cable Puller", "Guy sent to get doughnuts", etc.

;-)

You're such a clown Wil!!!

I know you're just joking around and trying to lighten the mood, but having worked voluntarily on many sets in my young time, including as cinematographer+camera person+lighting+doughnut runner etc :) I would like to say, *please* Wil, be nice to the D.O.P, they just wanna make y'all look purtier on the screen - you could act as dramatically as hell, but without the proper lighting no one would see it :[. Have a look at the lighting and the framing of the shots in your favourite films - see how much better good light and frames make the performances look. Use it to your advantage - don't knock the poor person on the other side of the lens.

Ok, I'll get off my ex-filmmaker high horse now :).

Very funny, but I would really like to see a more detailed posting as to why you left Arena. You will be missed there.

Genius!

I want some of what you're having to ease your back pain ;)

I don't know if you mentioned it before Wil, but I saw a infomercial you did for X-3D early yesterday morning. Cool piece of tech there, though *not* Mac (oldschool or OSX) capatable.

awesome, wil. Just awesome.

still havn't seen that infomertial- yet and I am always up late---

Jon Lovizt-- "I was mearly Acting!"
one of my faves along with-
- "I'm married to Morgan Fairchild Yeah that's the ticket!"

Feel better with your back? i agree i want some of what your taking for that back pain... :P

Wonders if that story is meant to be funny? Glad you're able to do camp. Nevermind me...I'm just jealous cause I'm not making a movie for Pax.

I wanna see the informercial! Maybe there's some sort of website?

You have to be kidding about Arena. Ugh. No offense Wil, I think you did the best you could turning turds into pearls, but the show was a bad idea. Actually, G4 is a bad idea too. The whole network should be a show on TechTV, not a waste of cable TV bandwidth. I mean, this channel manages to make videogames look boring.

I look forward to seeing you on Pax. Sounds like the energy and humor is good. Bodes well. Any hints as to story line?

Doesn't it bug the fuck out of you when girls come on here and pretend they know you? **giggle giggle** that's acting for you Wil...**giggle giggle*** that's for the laugh Wil. Oh God...gag me!

Nothing at all to do with the post but for all you Americans out there FOR THE LOVE OF JEEBUS VOTE TODAY!
The rest of the world is watching and hoping like holy hell!

"well that's just plain fun!"
"LOL! Thanks for the laugh, Wil."
"Cute!"
"Genius!"

I know I can always count on this website when it comes to sycophantic fools.

Hehehehe.

So Will, what did you vote?

(funnyyyyyyyyy scriptlet, btw) :)

Looks like the 'ole back is better, if you can go around stomping your foot on the ground and engaging in hilarity.

Brilliance!

Acting!

Thank You!

Wil Wheaton, you so crazy!

So have I. Pretty fun to see a movie from the other side of the camera.

I love this stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dork

This person who is in charge of the bell ringing sounds like a powerful position to have on a movie set. But one open to the creation of mischief if he has heard of Pavlov.

I did my part today by voting...I second the former comment and encourage all in the US to go out and vote.

I was forced to vote within a church that condemns me to hell, but I showed them....I voted for Satan. (Well, from their perspective I probably did.)

Hey, Will. I'm surprised given the Iraq link you didn't put a note at the top of you site about today being election day.

So go out and bote early and often, folks!

You too Will...tell 'em to hold the set until you get back.

Grr...sorry about the typos folks.

For even more drama, I suggest:

FADE IN

Wil Wheaton, sitting on a chair and dramatically back-lit, discussing TNG. Intercut shot with Patrick Stewart, then interview with Patrick Stewart, as if discussing the definition of "drama" for TNT.

Reverse to WW, then to PS again. Dialogue ensues with both actors praising the work of the other. Repeat several times, intercut with scenes from WW's final regular cast appearance on TNG, as well as an episode featuring WW and PS from season 2.

Touching farewell scene between Crusher and Picard, final comments from WW, final poignant (sp?) from PS. Captain gets the last word. Move on to Marina Sartis (she's cuter now than she was then - selling point!).

Yes, I just picked up season 4. Dude, I gotta say your hair has definately improved.

Very nice. My teacher would of given you a B+. Glad your up on your feet.

I'm amused.

Can I go home now?

check out www.televisionwithoutpity.com they are doing a poll on which former Keifer Sutherland costar should do a guest shot on 24.

Let's get out there and vote for Wil!

Yes, well...

Wil,
What did they give you for that back? That last post was so dramatic.

FG

The link for the other day should have read

http://www.googlism.com/index.htm?ism=Wil+Wheaton&type=1

Sorry about that....

Also... visit http://www.christopheraedo.com please :)

You're a goofball!

And Brandon: I sympathize! I'm the director/graphics creator/video library logger/editor/crew supervisor.....

That's funny! It's even funnier to me because I just went through something similar to that this weekend. My brother is a film major and asked me and his friend to be in his film.
So,we're shooting, at 9 in the morning, and it's 45 degrees outside. Me and my brother's friend just kept dancing to keep warm and singing songs.
"slide to the left(slide, one hop now ya'll (hop), two hops ow ya'll (hop hop)."

Your blog is great Wil, I wish mine was half as interesting and funny too.

Can I have your job?Its sounds like alot of fun and all but I know the work is hard and can be grueling.. :)

My bad, I usually associate "Camerman" with Camera Operator, yes. A D.P. is a D.P. to me... That which we call a D.P. by any other name would smell as sweet. Or something.

awwww Wil i find that so cute

First! yay/....

When I watch the movie if my friend says, "Hey, Wil's not acting dramatically enough!" I'm going to say, "It's not Wil, it's the lights! And you'd know that if you had read Wil Wheation dot Net! You wet end!" Yeah, that'll get him. Whanker. Bad mouthing Wil like that. Maybe I won't even watch it with him.

I got your back, Wil.

OK. And what exactly are you trying to say?

Oh for *fuck's* sake, people.

Could just *one* day pass without someone here commenting on STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION? Or, if the gremlins here can't manage that, may I ask politely that you stop shamelessly kissing Wil's' lily white ass? This is an awesomely entertaining blog, folks, but Christ, it ain't *that* funny or *that* blazingly insightful ... or even *that* movingly honest. The level of teen-level worship I read here daily is sickening. Are the only readers of WWDN twelve-year-old D&D fans? I mean, try to come with an intelligent comment once in a while. Believe me, the boot-licking is embarassing to all who read this site, and, well, Wil doesn't give a shit about any of you, beyond your status as a test market for his "acting comeback."

I'm not really expecting a miracle here -- just a modicum of fucking perpective is all.

Sounds like your having a great time.

I just popped in to say hi. I am such an idiot. I have visited here a handful of times and never realized...you were Whil Wheaton from Star Trek TNG. Ooopsy. Well, you have a very nice website. :)

NO WAY!!!! You were Wesley?

But... but... you're a funny guy! How... how...

ggggg...

gg..

rrr..

I take exception to the comment above from Ken. (about four posts up) We are not all D & D fans, I never played it in my life, and I beg your pardon, I may look 12 in my pictures, but I'm 15, so there! As far as ass-kissing, well, I'm sure you have a little of your bosses shit on your nose sometimes. LOL I love WWDN, it is funny, and a look at making movies nobody ever gets. Thanks Wil, most big stars don't take the time.

What? Someone on a set made an offer to act??? I thought directors had to fight to get them to act. Man, any wonder they offered you the part Wil ;).

Ken is way too uptight!

(*psst* Ken... I think they noticed the thumb up your ass)

Lol...makes me wanna become an actress just by reading how much fun you have!

Shut up Wesley!
