Been finally shooting a little more. Got 16 or so pages so far this week. Seven or so left. If the weather holds on saturday, should get another five of those. Need to pick up some various junk but the finish line is in sight.

9:25 am

Went to the lake, it rained. Still good times.

Shot the two brothers and an intro/outro of sorts. Gotta find one more actor and I’ll be done.

Made a production website with some stills: Seven Dead Men.

9:16 am

Finally finished Travis up last week, got started with my next two actors today. Shot nine pages, looks good. Hopefully gonna get the same again tomorrow. <crosses fingers>

1:26 am

Not much progress this month. Cheap, fast, good, pick two.

9:49 am

Well, the moment of truth: the first two days of shooting. Got 15 out of 19 pages shot, good deal. The hvx eats more light than I thought, gonna have to rethink how to do some night lighting.

4:20 pm

Looks like I’ve got all my actors. Drew up an eight day shooting schedule, but it’ll probably end up as four fulls and eight half days in coordinating people. Was gonna start this weekend but looks like I’ll have to push it back one.

11:18 am

Well, managed to get five actors so far. Good deal.

Did a test reading of the script, though, and came in way under what I need. Not sure what to do about that.

10:58 pm

Went up to Columbia to try and find some actors, no such luck.

Been playing a little go. Gotten to the point where I can beat the computer…on its lowest setting with a nine stone handicap. But it was consistently whupping me before so any progress is encouraging.

12:28 am

It took longer than expected, but my first feature script is done.

Now, to find some people and shoot the thing.
