Trying to make you excited. It's ACTUALLY working...

16 hours to go.

Once the first picture is up, I'm opening a can of whoop beer. I meant Root Beer.
 
The Ouija master has awoken
and his hands are supple,
but he must away,
for the time
is short and alas
the call of the art
awaitith

3 1/2 hours to rock and roll time on the set!!

DAY 1 Here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-) :-) :-)

See ya on set Alan!
 
Day 1 on the set was an incredible success.
Big Thanks to DVX'rs: Alan Chang for kicking Butt on Sound
and to Huy for dropping by and helping pull focus etc.

Extra credits go to the three of us in a ultra-small bathroom
scene with an actor, all the camera & sound gear, Arri 500 watt softbox
all in a dark, sealed room at about 118 degrees for 1/2 hour.

It will be further known as the "Film Sauna from Hell" scene!!!
 
Very cool, Tommy! Glad to hear that things are going well. Sorry about writing that bathroom scene. :)

Can't wait to see how it comes out. Have you been shooting stills on the set to share?
 
Saturday itself should be a movie all on its own. Titled:
"Film Sauna from Hell"

HOT, scorchy weather. After the Ouiji was awaken, it became chilly outside and the lights flickered. Had to scram. Sorry Tommy, I guess that was the only reason why I had to leave. Just in case I wouldn't arrive at church the next morning looking stoned from seeing a ghost. If I did, I would need all the holy water NorCal could provide.
 
I know Alan, same thing on early Saturday morning. As soon as the kids started playing with the Ouija the Arri 250 blew, luckily I had a spare for that one.

Then went for take two and that mirror fell over in the back room.

I'm not superstitious, but later on when I got home there was an odd image that ended up on the P2 card between the other two takes I shot. I know I didn't shoot it, and its only a few frames. Unless someone on set was playing a practical joke on me?.. it kinda freaked me out... :huh:

Well back to offloading and ingesting

Think I'll burn this custom Ouija after the pickups...or
raffle it ;-)

Yes, some still here and there, nothing pro. As far as the scene Patrick.
No sweat. Actually lots of sweat, but meant to say IT WILL BE WORTH IT!! :-)
