The shoot was so much fun! I was sort of dreading it; I have a lot of bad memories of shoots in L. A. and I thought I was done with all that coming out here haha. Luckily everyone made the day super easy and painless, and though we didn’t get everything done, I think we had a really productive day and I’m exciting to see how the first edits turn out. I was also nervous to act (once again, because of my past in L.A.), but everyone was super supportive and made me feel like a total A-lister. The craft table was well stocked with bagels and schmears too, so I hope me saying my lines over and over didn’t fill the room with a toxic scallion miasma.
As always, lots of little details that were tricky to get right and get consistently right, but I feel like everyone had a good time working it all out. Hope to get some more practice behind the camera next week, since out of acting, editing, sound, production design, writing, and shooting, I’m definitely least experienced being a DP.
I’m definitely keeping the wigs.
