Production Update #28: Another great shoot!
Tuesday, June 26, 2007 at 3:03PM Last weekend, we rolled another 400 feet of 16mm film stock in downtown Lineboro, picking up inserts for 3 already edited sequences, and shooting a 4th new scene. (Favorite shot of the day: A close-up of the winning cow pie at Barnyard Bingo... well, okay, it's wasn't the ACTUAL winning cow pie; we needed to wrangle up a stunt pie... but that's one of those loopy movie story...).
As usual, I'd like to thank those who were curious, dedicated, or just plain crazy enough to volunteer their time:
Kenny Ditto -- for handling slates, tripod, and lights on Saturday. Couldn't have done it without you.
Kenny Ditto (left) talks with director Jonathan Slade between set-ups.
Linda Kirkpatrick -- for showing up for your cameo.
Gordon Masters -- for getting almost as much sunburn as I did, and editing down all those audio takes onto a single DAT.
Bob Sapora -- for showing up to shoot even though your family reunion was that day...
John Krebs -- for continuing to deliver a wondrfully authentic performance -- even if your scene involved holding a cow turn on a pitchfork in the hot, hot sun...
Novia Campbell -- for putting on that wedding dress on yet again. I promise to write a scene where you burn it...
And, of course, to Lineboro firefighters Will, Keith, and John who reprised their roles from previous shoots. Thanks so much.
And now for the remaining summer production schedule, as best we know it:
Friday July 20, 2007 -- TBA
Saturday July 21, 2007 -- TBA
Sunday, July 22, 2007 -- TBA
Friday August 3, 2007 -- TBA
Saturday August 4, 2007 -- TBA
Sunday, August 5, 2007 -- TBA
I'll keep everyone updated as the locations and scenes become apparent. Independent filmmaking lives in Maryland... At least, for now...
