...really helped keep everyone "in the moment".
 
the place looks great! -- especially after the mess we left it in...
i meant to apologize for that.

i'm delighted to see bullis posing next to flowers, it really adds another dimension to his already multi-faceted mystique. (aura, persona... umm... -------- hell, it's just Bullis)

Looks like fun! wish i could be there again! Tell Scott hey from Stebbs!

Hola, mates ... We are, indeed, off and running. Yesterday afternoon (Friday) we commenced shooting our first scene here in Rancho Cucamonga. Geoff Reisner and Matty G. are consummate pros and it was a true pleasure having them operate as a team.

We finished up close to scheduled time and headed up the 15 to the high desert for our second location. Anyone living out here on the East side of the so-called "Inland Empire" knows that going north on the 15 on a Friday afternoon is a crap shoot. Crap. We got slammed with a wreck in the middle lane that backed up traffic and put us behind immediately. We had made arrangements with a restaurant at the location to cater the meal and they were gracious and understanding with our late arrival.

After dinner we moved to the shooting set and F*CK it was cold! Many, many, many props to the crew for being such troopers - - especially Tim, Geoff and Matty, who pretty much had to be operating at all times during the exteriors.

Blaine is a line producer's line producer and he has my unending sympathy for having to try and keep the schedule in some semblance of order when we started out behind the power curve immediately. It was almost a mini-reality show watching the dynamics going on between Blaine's efforts to time manage and Tim's efforts to get the shots. Fortunately, no blows were thrown and no loaded weapons were within reach. Kudos and muchos gracias to our cast for being willing to shoot until 2 a.m.

I'll have to let Geoff answer (or no doubt somebody here will recognize it). It's powered by the same DVX/HVX batteries and was really sweet. Geoff is racked out upstairs but when I do reveille in a bit I"ll ask him.
 
Hey man, no lie! It's a WHOLE nuther planet when you go up to the high desert in January:
