haha! "Nancy Drew" huh? I hadn't heard that one. I figured that you must have meant J.D. Drew so I looked up his career. Yep!

Anyway, I was JUST SAYING that I appreciate all of this "Mother's day" attention and such but the Pink Bats have got to go! I said the same thing that you said.... the wristbands, maybe. But the bats???? NO WAY!
 
Oh, Jim.... I wanted to tell you. I set up my crane today to try and tighten up that "looseness" and discovered that several of the bolts needed tightening! I was stunned at how losse some of them were. I wish that I would have thought af that before that last shot.... may have made your shot a bit tighter.

I had no idea that the bolts would work themselves so loose, so quickly.

Yes, mothers are COOL.

Pink bats, not cool. It looks like standing there in the box with a giant tampon applicator!
 
I was just informed that the pink bats were used to help support breast cancer. I guess I didn't catch Vin Scully yap about that (he yaps about everything else).

Boy, now I feel like a schmuck! I still don't like the pink bats on the field, though.
 
Well, I am VERY happy to say that the footage that we got on Saturday looks great. I was very concerned about the lighting.... I tell you, I was vowing that I would never to shoot anywhere but in a studio. The sun was killing me... blowing out the background of what was a beautiful forground. But, as I said, the footage looks good. I can definitely use it.

Thank goodness for Charli's Vidleds! Shooting inside of a vehicle is tricky! But that is why I wrote this film like that.... to learn how to do it!

I have 3 more days of shooting... right down to the wire!

Wed. with Arik
Sat. with Audrey
Sun. with them both
 
Hey Ted. Just catching up a little bit here.

Thanks for posting your clips of your "experiences" while shooting. I checked out the van "action" clip. Reminded me (a little) of a shoot earlier this year where I was shooting for a friend and was in the back of a panel van shooting forward at the driver and passenger. The scene called for a stop. So the actor slams on the brakes - and yours' truly almost ended up catapulting between the driver and passenger and through the windshield. Funny ... at least later. Suffice to say that immediately thereafter I put on a harness and everything was good. But that was nothing compared to almost being mowed down by a vehicle in reverse. Glad you guys survived.

As for the cop stop footage (which was great) I do have one question: How did you get the cop to sign a release?:Drogar-Love(DBG):

Congrats on your shoot. It's looking great.
 
Thanks Dapohafilms! I appreciate you checking in.

And I appreciate your experience! I have a similar shot coming up... I will keep yours in mind!

And yeah, I got the cops release... right here, pal! :grin:

Thanks again.

Editing is coming along nicely.
 
You're editing already? But we're still filming, you can't be editing! Noooo! Good luck on the splicing.

I'll be happy to outline what I did to do that! Thanks for asking. Please check in tomorrow and I'll have the info on what I did.

Will do! I'll be online tomorrow (between editing) and will post what I did to make that rig happen.

BUT THE BIG NEWS.....

I think that "thetheatreguy.com" is no longer a registered site for me!!! (I thought that the registration ran out on the 20th!)

Sooooo... no COP STOP and CLOSE CALL videos until I register my new domain name! Sorry!

Links fixed for THE COP STOP and CLOSE CALL. Apparently I need to renew my registered domain name! (though I have on my calendar that it doesn't expire until NEXT week.)

Defcon... I will work on and post the "how I did it" for the car mount today.
 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LARRY R.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
