Some lessons need to be learned the hard way. I wasn't prepared like I was during the first phase of filming. I let everything get out of control. Never again.
Connor said he couldn't come back for one more day. School and such he said. That sucks. We could go on and do the last scene set in a mechanic's garage.
Mario calls for a...

The next scene was my favorite to shoot. It was just me, Mario, and Nate. Pure guerilla.
It took probably 2-3 hours to shoot the whole scene. Easy!
The next scene is is tricky. It is set in a deserted location (luckily Mario knows a parking lot for a park that is empty) And it is set at night. This is the opening scene so...

The new script is finalized. I put the scenes where they go, and make up a new scene to cover our ass where a big gap would be in the film. Mario organizes a new production meeting to discuss the new shooting schedule. Five scenes. Five days. Stuff I have never done, or thought I could do. Easy right?
We meet at a pizza place...

The worst parts are over. I have the beginning and the end. I just need to film a few scenes in the middle. After everything I need a few easy days of just dialogue driven scenes that can be accomplished easily. But of course I can't have that because it's me. My lead actor Ian informs me his timetable for staying changed. He was going...

Another option would be to Bollywoodize it and throw in a bunch of musical numbers. But it sounds like you have your solution already. Maybe next time? Good luck!

Ha ha! That;s actually a good idea. Maybe next time. Thanks.
Out of the heat, out out of trouble. I have a nice sunburn to remind myself. We're back in the house where it's cooler, but that doesn't count for passions. My unit production manager Barb is back. She is a sweet lady, but on set she feels like she is mistreated, and makes sure everyone around her knows it. She also brings her personal problems...

It is an Arizona July. Temperatures are over one hundred degrees. God knows what the humidity factor is. I can't help but think, "why the hell did I do this to myself and everyone else?" The only answer I have to comfort myself is that this is the only time I have to shoot, this how everyone's schedule permitted them. All in July. I sigh...

The scene is set, the lights are struck, the camera's are in position. My skeleton crew are in their place. My actors know their lines and ready to recite them after I give the command. This scene is set in a garage, and it is hot as hell. Six bodies are confined in a small space, with studio lights emitting heat, with only a small...

God dam Murphy and his fucking law.
I dig this site, I find the women who are on here are more real than the superficial ones in the "mainstream" . I may seem average and boring at first but I do have a wild side. I dig people who are true to themselves and not holding themselves back
