....and Action!

Ok, so the blog's updates will be a little lax during photography....

It's 1:34pm on day two. Our call time tonight is 6.30pm.

We finished day one early this morning around 3:30am having started at 5pm. First we recorded all of Megan's V.O. with the Cargioli brothers and then Meg Lansaw and I recorded the V.O. for the infomercial that plays on the television (o.s.) during Henry's front room scenes. Our schedule then had us shooting all of Megan's scenes first and then switching to the front room and master bedroom for the characters of Henry and Caitlin. Our actress, Ms. Dorothy Reynolds (Megan) did a stellar job! We ended her shoot by having to wake her up our of her (well deserved) sleep to shoot the last scene which (conveniently) was her waking up and walking in to talk to Henry. I could not have asked for a better actress to work with.

We switched our shooting schedule around as we picked up a lot of the close up shots of Henry's eyes and face which meant we would had to of relight the whole room tonight. This also worked to our advantage because by 3am, Bill Ladd's eyes looked exactly like we wanted them too.......comatosed!

Today we have two scenes left in the front room then we move into the Kitchen for the arguement scenes and then the Jimmy / Henry scene to end the evening. Last night we shot 10 scenes, tonight we have 8.

Then tomorrow night we are on location. Cape Fear Memorial Bridge, Muter's Alley and EXT. House.

Rolling!
