After talking this over with my friends, we not only decided to make a commercial but we also got a storyboard, a script outline and shot lists completed. Hopefully we can begin shooting before this Typhoon hits us this weekend.
Well the weather sucked this past weekend, apparently Okinawa hasn't been hit this hard by a typhoon in a few years. This whole island is made of concrete anyways so it wasn't that big a deal.
After like 4 script rewrites, a camera dying on me, and a typhoon to boot we are finally ready to shoot. Just in time too. I can't wait till I can show this to people.
@ncje - Kadena is so-so, but Okinawa is awesome. So much to do, so little time. AFN gives everyone a headache but the new group of broadcasters and their commercials are hilarious.
Well done on finishing despite the diffculties! Judging by your eagerness for people to see the result, I'm guessing that you're pretty pleased with how it turned out. Looking forward to it. Cheers!
