It's 2am and we've just returned home from our first night of shooting. For some stupid reason (well it was a good reason at the time), we chose to start with the most important and dramatic scene and work backwards. It should be all downhill from here. Then again maybe I don't want to say that.
Mark, our lead actor with a disability, is a trooper. He hung with us all evening and was still delivering quality lines by the time we were done. We ended with a crane shot 30 feet in the air. Jack, our camera operator had to go home, so I got to shoot from up there.
So we actually have about 6 minutes in the can, so there's only 5 minutes left to shoot and we have 152 hours left (151 if you count DST). And wouldn't you know it's snowing tonight for our outdoor shoot tomorrow morning!
Only in Ohio...
