Another day.. ..Another ‘Blog’.
Okay this is the second time writing about the ‘Group Project’, and I have done my time in front of the camera as well as behind.
The drama project has begun filming the primary scenes, and re-filming on HD camera the scenes from the ‘online’ promo.
Though there has been some scheduling conflicts and confusion about the use of a room, not anyone’s fault, just bad luck, anyway we will have it for filming later, so alls well that ends well.
Okay on to the daily grind. We started writing out a shooting log during lunch Tuesday the 16th, laying out the needed shots for Tom’s, Jayme’s and my scenes.
Wednesday 17th Acting was never really my strong point, I am playing the strong silent bad guy type, at least for the first episode, in the shooting I repeatedly walk out of a set of double doors, shot from many angles, simple yes? And it made me feel stupid.
Jayme’s scenes were basic set up on his ‘Persona’, in this we tried to show the frustration of a less then successful session musician.
We changed the opening sequence slightly giving Tom a longer scene where he discovers the book, which leads to the exposition, which we filmed in the library.
And yes We were ‘very’ quiet.. J
Thursday 18th we did a few pick up shots, just things we forgot, or just did not get to the day before, and I handed over the HD camera to Tom and Jayme to let them do some of the location shots, but not before making a backup of the filming, oh and I took the chance to film my concept for the ‘1 in 6 ‘audio visual tutorial.
Friday the 19th was a bit of a wash out for me as we were, or at least the guys were doing casting for two of the primary cast and three of the support cast, though I was not available on the day.
That is pretty much it for the moment, so I guess I will leave you with some of the sets.
