First meeting with the actresses today. Excited the shoot date is coming near. Its been so long since I did my own joint I feel like this is a first time again.
 
I'm happy as hell. Casting was perfect on this I think. The readings alone brought forth the characters I see in my head. The only hitch that I over looked was wardrobe. DOH! Being a dark location I didn't really see anything descript for that. Took a quick ride to K-Mart and that didn't work so we are heading to Express this week.
My male actor also tore his achillies tendon so now I have to recast. Whats with the tearing of achillies tendons with shoots I'm on. Dale tore his when we did Check.
 
Thanks. Its been a while since my last film so I'm a little giddy that I'm actually doing something for myself again even though its a one location shoot. :)
I'm banking on the characters being strong enough to hold the attention of the viewers for 6 minutes. Then when you see the end I'm hoping viewers will rewind in their heads and connect the dots and then rewind the movie to see if there were any other clues and cues that were missed because at the time they seemed so mundane.
 
Thanks Mark. I can't wait to see your joint too. I love that icy blue tinge you have on your images. I'm still trying to figure out whats going on with that. Looks like blue and a lavender without being too over powering.
 
I think they are fine the way they are. Not too contrasty and not too saturated, the edging isn't too pronounced...
 
Little glitch with the location. They didn't want anything that would put the park in a bad light so there was an issue with something in the script. As much as I wanted to show off the park we may have to shoot it so its looks non-descript. Either that or move one of the scenes out to the street or down the ally the other direction. Sent them the script though and hopefully when they see the reason for the scene they will approve it. Fingers crossed.
 
The guy said that I can shoot and keep the Wonder wheel out of the shot and hes ok with that. I'm waiting on someone from NYU to get me permits for the street shots so we can use the new toys Dennis from CINEVATE is bringing tomorrow. I shoot for them and hope the favor can be returned. If everything falls through we are still shooting there. I have my cop friends coming down for to hold off the dogs anyways.
 
Just concerns with the content of what we are shooting on the park. They dont want bad PR. I think we've convinced them otherwise since then and will do our best not to associate negativity to the landmark.

But the location is still secured.
