Production Update #9: No shooting this weekend

It looks like a number of folks will still be on vacation this week, so we'll have to put our shooting on hold.  We've already had 3 very successful production days and I don't want to lose our momentum, but it's important for all crew members to understand that this is THE greatest challenge of independent film--matching schedules of those who so generously donate their time...

Here's the good news:

* All the film has been processed and it looks -- and sounds -- great

* I've begun editing the film in the McDaniel College Film Apprentice Edit Suite. It’s one of the perks of being a full-time professor. They expect you to undertake crazy summer projects like this. If you happen to be on campus at any point, please stop by and check out the cut. I’m usually here editing after 1pm on most weekdays.

Up next:

* We'll be shooting all those rural walkbys that we missed in the first 4 pages...

* We'll be shooting a night scene in a barn (Talia sleeps in her wedding dress)...

* We'll be shooting a few pick-up shots at a local fireman's carnival to make the "Barnyard Bingo" event look more populated...

Thanks again for everyone's enthusiasm -- just 4 more days to shoot this summer... Stay tuned to your email for late-breaking production notices...
