well the thing is I'm trying to get used to having bigger crews. As a young director I tend to want to do a lot but I know there are many skills that I didnt master as much as I did with Camera, and visual language. Matt Teaches grip and works grip jobs but also likes camera work and directing writing and editing; I tend to stay in the writing directing and edintg and camera work. I mean I know so grip work but I'm not the best skilled at it. So instead of like CPU, were I had like a handful of people this time i had like 20 or so. it can get crazy, but I think I let it get to me that is everyone comfortable, I worry that I might let people down like many younger directors do. So I want to try to keep food and other resources there as a must. Matt has directed over like 20 projects and knows the game... I'm still learning. But man I do worry alot.

I feel you man. Even though I was not at our last shoot I was so worried about our crew being happy. So far almost everyone we have worked with has been great and I want to keep the core that we have since everyone gets along and most are from these boards. The big question is how do you keep everyone happy when most are shooters. How to divie up the jobs where no one feels like they were just a go-for but go-fors are needed too. Then theres the issue of paying everyone so they are happy. I would rather pay everyone the same rate but then does that mean I would take a beating on a feature length shooting for 15 days or more? Im actually in this dilema now trying to figure out what to pay everyone on something coming up and I think the crew will get close to 20 this time. Its a little nerve racking thinking about it but Im sure it will go smooth.

Exactly! I stress out about everything being perfect. I really need a DP, I trust and a Producer. That would relieve a lot of stress.

Aaahh, the chainsaw, the loudest, and there fore, one of the coolest horror weapons. Too used to call copy cat, too loud to be ignored.

I'm still waiting for a killer to go to town (I mean the whole damn movie) with one of those weedwhackers with the blade on it. It would need to be modified, but baby she could make a mess.

Hey spidey,

I'm looking forward to seeing your film. I'm almost done one called, 'Pure.' It's a 17 minute short but I reckon we'll submit a 6 minute version for HorrorFest.
