The One Where I Was Three Days Late

Not much has changed, but I have finished a shot list and I am suffering through the storyboards. Something will be turned in tomorrow :) 

The networking event on Friday was lucrative! There was an excellent turn out and I think most of the crew is now accounted for and the casting is still mostly done. I found a gentleman by the name of Berger which means he may be perfect for the role, and has an appropriate last name. Its all shaping up!

The film I made in undergrad with Van Walker was named an official selection at Longleaf so that has been a big win on a personal level. Hopefully he and I can keep our streak up with Burger Night.

March Madness is almost over.

 Well, time has flown.

That being said, I think his availability is slightly short of the full shoot, which means I may need to get creative with the schedule.    It seems lame to say that I am excited...but I am. This week has made it feel more real than the past few, and I think that it's good incentive for me to start working on the shot lists, etc. In other news, I started recording a song that MIGHT be featured on the radio in the film but only time will tell. It will be decided based on how it turns out.

 Hello again dear reader(s) It feels like a long time has passed since we last spoke, and in many ways- it has. Filming for Burger Night wrapped and a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders.  Getting there was not an easy path. Several crew members dropped out at the 10th and 11th hours, leaving me to curse the infinite void of darkness that is the Atlantic ocean at night. These included my replacement DP (although she was kind enough to find me a replacement in time), my 2nd AC, and both PA's, In the end, it worked out and nine folks came together to make a movie and eat the Moe's catering I ordered for 14. I still have leftovers too! Overall, I am quite pleased with the direction that things took on set, we had a good shoot and it was mostly smooth. The footage looks crisp and I think using the Pocket Cinema instead of the Ursa worked out well, especially considering the size of the room. Sound was mostly good. I think the airport being nearby really put a wrench in ...
