AHA!! Flextrack! I knew it had to be something funky going on there, cuz you kept on moving and moving and I was like "wtf? how is he doing that?" cuz I knew you utilized the slider greatly.

I don't do zooms so that particular trick is out for me. Only time I ever zoom is to get a tighter frame.

Yeah... all you have to do is ask.:laugh: ...and zooms, I only use them for the "Zolly" shot. (dolly in,zoom out)
 
Hmmm... not a single peep outta ole Rodney for an entire day... he must've fallen off the face of the earth... now who's going to feed all these damn winged monkeys and pick up all their poop?!
 
I was forced to kill him and feed him to the rabid dogs I keep in my yard. He pissed me off. Said somehitng about Jello and pudding...couldn't really understand him with the gag in his mouth....

My, my... what a temper. I can't believe you got pissed off over jello and pudding... we've been discussing those this whole time... go on, you can tell us what he REALLY said! :happy:
 
Okay you turkeys...enough with the jello/pudding situation! Crazy boys!

Thought i'd put in a little update: Rodney is currently out of Toronto so he has Damien getting myself and Robert in line. We are organizing to meet up either tonight or early next week to get our first read through. Since I was told that the last revision of the script hasn't been quite tweaked yet...it should be interesting reading a script...without a script...haha!
 
And I'm baaaaaack!

The drive from Atlanta to Brooklyn is a long one especially with a 15 month old. Wow. Stopped through Washington, DC though and missed the perfect shot of a lifetime. I was standing at the bottom of the hill heading up to the monument (the big fricking obelisk), taking pictures of the White House with my wife... when one helicopter flies by... fine, no big deal. Showed my son (his first chopper) and I hear more copters appraoching. Turned around and this is when the perfect shot begins:

From behind the hill and the Obelisk comes one CHINOOK HELICOPTER, sun in the background. It flies fast and low at about 100ft from the ground... and right OVERHEAD of me. I could have drawn a line right down the center of the helicopter I was so perfectly placed.

Then a sound... I turn back and TWO MORE CHINOOKS follow the same path directly overhead... and heading for the White House Lawn. The President of the United States was returning to the White House.

Flew directly overhead of me... and my HVX was in the car, 1 mile away.

Anyway, that was one hell of a hot day. And it was yesterday. Today I'm in Brooklyn and wishing that I had a great story to go with this great house of my dad's. Flower takes place in a warehouse on the outskirts of town, PLUS we're filming in Toronto. Too much in motion right now to even consider a rewrite or a location move. But it's such a great location I'm kind of upset that I didn't write anything for it.

Oh well.

Got an email from Meredith a few minutes ago (she's the artist doing the monster illustrations for me) and within contained the first conceptual drawing of my monsters. SWEET! Gotta get some things tweaked, but looking pretty good!
