Production Update #2: Camera Test 6/12/04

The 16mm raw stock has arrived from Kodak and is chillin’ in Bob Sapora’s refrigerator.  This notice is to confirm that we will indeed shoot a camera test this Saturday (6/12/04) from 10am-noon at Bob’s home south of Westminster.

We will be testing the range of our film stock -- Kodak 7246 -- under full sun, full shade, and interior lighting conditions. We’ll also be testing wardrobe, particularly the wedding dress -- and skin tones to see how to best light them with this stock..

Confirmed talent & crew for this day:

Jonathan Slade – writer/director

Bob Sapora -- cinematographer

Gordon Masters -- production audio recordist

Novia Campbell -- lead actress

As I mentioned in my previous email, camera tests are notoriously tedious -- but this will also be an excellent opportunity for students and volunteers to get a feel for what it's like to be on a film crew, and to meet other members of the team. Also, we will finally hammer out some solid shoot dates (so if you come, bring your day planner so you know when you'll be available...)

Hope to see you there...
