Day Three of Filming: News and Notes

Another day of filming is behind us. Things went very well. We only had two scenes for this day, as we had to be done early for schedule reasons. And we were able to continue our streak of completing our shoots either early or on time.

We began in the bitter cold of the morning at the apartment of German and Cullen. Cullen was there to get us what needed and keep the coffee coming. This shoot marked the beginning of photography for both Brittany and Holly. They came in and were able to bring a real fresh breath to the production. The shoot itself wasn't as smooth as it could have been. But that was not due to the actors, whom all did a great job with a scene that had a quick pace and multiple changes in tone. Ultimately though, the production was very successful. And as the opening scene of the movie, it should set a great pace for the whole story.

After that we headed to the campus of the University of Washington for a shoot in a bathroom. There Gerald was rejoined by Calvin. This was a makeup shoot for one we had missed out on the weekend before. Things went great. Gerald and Calvin worked fast and were able to really get into a scene that could be a little difficult. Ultimately the scene existed soley for the purpose of exposition, which is always difficult to not have feel boring. They had a great chemistry between the two of them and were able to make it fun while doing so.

This scene does mark the completion of filming for Calvin. He did a great job, and brought an energy to the movie which was much needed to balance out some of the other characters. We look forward to working with him again in the future.

Our next shoot is this coming weekend as we are set to wrap production. We have a lot of things going on this weekend so stay tuned and if you're interested in getting involved just let us know.
