Breaking a Leg...

Xmas doing make-up
Greetings everyone,
I hope everyone is doing well. As scheduled, we've started our filming (Production) on the 5th. A little rocky start but we managed to get through the obstacles and had a productive weekend. Which brings me to thank all of you who worked last weekend; you guys totally rocked everything and made it through the whole day. Posted through out this post are some shots that Alex took and emailed me.
  

Getting the camera white balanced.
Now, next weekend will be a little more hectic and a little crazier. Saturday, we are planning to film all the EXT shots (Road trip) to (Rest Area). Always keep in mind that a lot of things can change at the last minute, so be ready for it. On Sunday, we will start from (Warehouse/Chop Shop) and will visit (Rest Area) in the afternoon to film the fight scene there. This weekend, we will be filming around more actors and more scenes, more complicated scenes with difficult camera angles, so I would like to remind everyone, to jump in and let's help each other, so we can stay on schedule and wrap up on time.
Ready to Roll.
Saturday - We will meet on location at 7am, I will email everyone the address. We will film the "Road Trip part" which requires Jack & Jenny on the set - (Dave & Kristin). There will be a lot of moving around; First, Jack will get on  the road and head down to pick Jenny and THEN Jenny and Jack will get on the road to the REST AREA. So, the plan is to meet at 7am, set-up, get the make-up done & have breakfast by 8am. I would like to start filming before 8:30am and finish on time by 3pm. If there is a problem with the time frame, please let me know ASAP.


Taking a break
Sunday - We will meet on location at 7am, I will email everyone the address once things are finalized and if Saturday goes according to the plan. We will first film the Warehouse/Chop shop scenes, which requires EVERYBODY - The Boss, Jack, Paulie, Jimmy, Sam and Jenny and in additions (Couple Extras to play as FBI agents to bust in on The Boss). The plan is to knock the warehouse scenes, including the Flashback in the warehouse which includes; The Boss, Paulie and Jack before 12pm - so we can move to the REST AREA with Jack, Jenny, Sam, Paulie and Jimmy and film the scenes where Jack gets his butt kicked and Jenny gets taken by Mobsters. We can start by 1pm and hopefully finish by 3pm/4ish.
