Woke up at 4:30, checking account was showing less money than was budgeted for…Van was on empty…I networked until some gas was donated to us. Turned out that nobody could print the script out for refference, so we downloaded to our smart phones! And to top it all off, it was like 40 degrees and the heater went out in the van lol! All of this occured before our 7am meeting at Huddle House! This should give you a good indicator as to how the day went lol!
We all met up for breakfast, looking as tired as we were…
Kevin Moss(Director of Photography)
Dylon Kiker (Producer,Director, Actor: Book Kaiser)
Danny Ford (Producer, Actor: Doug Kaiser)
Around 8 or so we rolled out to get our first shots of the day. These shots were for some driving scenes, and required footage of the van coming into and away from camera. This was accomplished by a process we came up with…called Stop-Go’s. Kevin Moss, Director of Photography, drove ahead of the van and posted his camera. We would drive past, pull over and wait for him to go up the road a bit. He would post again, in a spot he thought looked cool, and we would drive by again.
We repeated this process more than a few times, with Danny Ford and myself in the semi warm van…and Kevin posted out in the cold! They don’t call it “suffering for you art” for nothing lol!
Here are a few screen shots…
After all this, we made our way up Cheaha Mountain…where the shoot got even more out of hand lol! Check back for Part 2 of of this blog…if you don’t I’m gonna tell my mommy!
