I can't say the first day of shooting went off without a hitch, but it was great. After we wrapped and broke down and put away all of the lights, I was beaming with pride on my ride home. I loved it.
We had about 8 people come out to work on crew. Randy brought them through his mailing list and organization, http://www.houstonfilm.org. Everyone was professional and everything went like clockwork. We did run out of time, but we did get into the club an hour late. I almost lost the entire film crew. There was a moment there around 45 minutes they wanted to leave, but we decided to wait and we got in.
So we are behind on our shooting schedule. We are already planning on picking up the three scenes that got left out of Saturday's shoot on August 9th, the last day of the shoot.
Also, Nathan's brother, Micky, is playing the part of Casey now. He did an excellent job, as did everyone Saturday. We had close to 12 extras and the club scenes look really good. In fact the opening shoot Saturday, when I saw it on the monitor, I exclaimed, "That looks like its straight off of the CW."
I couldn't be happier with where we are at and I'm just waiting for the second day of shooting now.
Take Care,
Brad Ferrell - Director
