a few days off is good... but wait.. school is starting. Noooo!

So we wrapped the first half of the film. We actually shot the second half of the script first. No film is ever shot in chronological order anyway. I finally have another day off to just relax. I think I might be filming another scene tomorrow but I have to keep checking my emails for the exact call times. It'll be way more chill cause we'll be dealing with smaller casts.

Got some cuddling in lat night, looking more for some of tat tonight. Watched The People under The Stairs last night. One of my all time favorite movies.

I probably mentioned in other posts before this but I am really looking forward to this new years schedule of projects. hella awesome.

I'm gonna eat spaghetti.
This is the cast and crew. I'm not in it cause im taking the picture. But thats ok, thats how I like it haha.

One more day of shooting.

Tomorrow is the end of the first half of shooting for Tick Tock Boom Clap. Theres a bunch of other days scheduled but thats TBA.

I'm so tired. I think I've driven about a thousand miles since day one. I'll be able to have an exact number when its all said and done.

The Acting for Camera class that I work for is about to start next week. Its gonna be a little different cause I'll have a more active role in terms of teaching. damn....

This year is off to a great start. Just worked on a feature length film and I have a ton of stuff lined up for the rest of the year. Among other things, I'm in love with the most beautiful girl. Cheese factor aside I'm not afraid to say.

I finally did my laundry haha. I was running out of clothes to wear to during the shoot.

These kids toys are harder than they seem.

post shooting depression

It happens to the best of us. you work on a shoot for a few days and you get used to the action. Then when things slow down you find yourself with loads of free time.

I'm glad I don't get affected by that.

School starts next week. ehhhhhh. I gotta get to work. On school and as many projects as I can. damn I need to get busy.

I'm glad that all my favorite current shows are back from the winter break. I need to catch up on everything now.

I can't wait till Breaking Bad's new season comes back to tv.. probably in the summer.

Bidness cards

Haha. my rubber stamp finally came in. So that means I'm doing a little factory line in the office. I finally have bidness cards. I cant even recall the many times I needed one. so unprofessional.

I think the hard days are done

This shot was taken at around 10pm on day 5. it was about 40 degrees out here. the cast and crew was freezing their asses off. This reminds me of when I worked on this film called Streets. That was like 2 weeks of cold weather.
the dance studio. We're done at the theater so the next few days is gonna be here.

This shoot is going really great. All the really difficult parts should be over with.. Sifting through the photos, I really like this shot here. I shot this for the entrance of the theater doors. Most plays have stills to let them know what they're about to get into. I was in the copy shop printing some of these photos out and some of the customers and workers were complimenting me on my photography. Its funny cause I never really had any interest in photography but it seems that I'm doing a lot of it these days.

On my day off

To day is the first day off from filming. I shot the last five days, and then I shoot for the next 6 days. Then theres like a week after that sometime in february. I am so tired.

Out of all the people on set, and besides the child actors, I am the youngest person there. All the film crew guys are older gents with loads of experience. The funny part is that theyre all a bunch of character too. One of the cool parts of production is the lingo. Everything has a nickname, it just makes things easier to say.

I had to drop a deuce on set so they're like "Where's Jaime?".. "Oh, he's getting batteries"

So today is all about rest, catching up with the world, cuddling and Shawshank Redemption.

day 1... I'm dead

I am too tired to write about the first day of shooting... So I'm just gonna post these pictures
Captain Hook's other job is being a 2nd AC.

Peter Pan!!!!
Tiger Lily

also this is what happens when you put the craft service table in the same room as the equipment room. The crew goes nuts.

Also this is the rigging for when Pan flys. We're all gonna have a chance to fly when we wrap shooting.
