WONDER TWINS POWER - Activate

You might have been wondering, where have they been? we have they been up to.? So I thought I might start by saying that this is an amazing, thrilling scary, adventure where all the parts of the process have to come together for those unique 4 weeks in January 2008 called the shoot. We are literally in the thick of it all. At the moment we are who will embody LUKE? the voice of BELLADONNA.
So because so many things are happening its almost hard to know where to start.
So here is my last weeks to do list.
  • Write a confirmation letter to the church (one of our our locations) letting them know when we will be shooting
  • Write another confirmation letter to the Naturopath for their location and negotiate the rate
  • Find where we're going to shoot the hypnotherapist room
  • Find the hypnotherapist
  • Cast Mrs Jones
  • Organise the schedule
  • Find the extras
  • Arrange all the details for them, where to go, and for how long, what to wear etc
  • Calculate and discuss contracts with actors agents
  • Have meetings with Make up department, with costume and production department.
  • Find a bar and an Chinese restaurant, negotiate the fee
  • Re do the budget so all things balance
  • Ask my wonderful friend for the use of her car
  • Walk though all the locations to see what the look like at the time of day where we are going to be shooting
  • Make sure there is enough parking for everyone, at all locations
  • Organise food, where, who, how, when...dairy free.? vegetarians?
  • Project that it might be 37 degrees when we shoot and what impact will that have on actors crew equipment.
  • Drive through all the driving scenes and see what can come up, eg. The road is too busy... looks bad at certain times of the day... get day passes if the road is a paid road.
  • Call all the actors that are not suited for role.
  • Say thank you to all the lovely souls that are helping.
Marcus has also been very busy building his steady cam and vest, which is looking mighty fine...he almost agreed for me to film him so stay tuned to see him being fabulous. Will be back very shortly. Cherio
