Expectations on a Shoot

The following are a set of expectations while you are on a shoot.

  • Were you on the call sheet? Only those that are called or asked should go on set. Some locations may not have enough space to accomadate everyone. By bringing only the people who are required, we should keep from tripping over each other's shoes.
  • Are you in the scene? If you are in the scene, wait for the director to say "action", nod, or give some sort of indication to begin. Then wait a two seconds before starting the scene. When you're think you're finished with the scene, do not stop until the director says "cut" or gives an indication the scene is over. Stay in character!
  • Are things the way they were before you got there? Before we leave any location, whether it be church or someone's house, it is imperative that we leave it the way we found it. Moved furniture, items that we brought, garbage that we generated. We want to be courteous and a good witness so we will be welcomed back.

Call for 1/20

Abel Zhu, Sean Pham, Nancy Chan, Wey Wang, Preston Chang

Weekly Calls

After our shoot today, it's apparent that 1.5 hours isn't enough to
shoot everything. In an effort to try and everything done in a
reasonable time frame, we're going to do weekly calls. What that
means, is that I will send out an email with who we will need for the
shoot this coming Sunday. If your name is on the list, be at the drama
room at 2pm. Everyone else will start at the normal time.

Cupid's Chokehold: Day 2

We had our second day of shooting today. We also worked on the robot suit. Originally, I thought it would take 20 minutes. Little did I know that it would take the whole time. But we got some decent footage. Principle photography should take 3-4 weeks.

Thanks to Jimmy for helping out with preproduction stuff. We should be ready to roll into the next project once we're done.
