WatchSo… it’s over half done. Two years later. I wish a good, proficient editor followed this shit and wanted to become my editor. But, at least I like what I have. I just have no time to/don’t spend enough time editing this beast. I like it so far though. It’ll be done by year end no matter what.
Anyway, here’s something I made while procrastinating last month.

WatchThis is not part of the movie. This is just an outtake I used as an excuse to procrastinate.

The Weather Outside is Weather
February 12, 2010
Pretty sure we’re only two weekends from wrapping the film, but the weather is stretching it out. 100% chance that it will snow tonight—I had already canceled tonight’s shoot yesterday—and now it’s looking like there could be four to six inches of snow. This weekend was supposed to be full of exterior shots, so…
Fuck. It only snows on the...
Trapped in the Closet
February 7, 2010
Chris came up with a joke today, probably a reference to me — Q: “Why do you not want to share a blanket with a director?” A: “Because he always gets too much coverage.”
Re-shot the twelve pages we shot before, this time with Chris. Already knew what I wanted (and what I had over shot before) so it went a little bit quicker this time. Felt...

Baby, We Should Sit Down
January 30, 2010
Not shooting this weekend because of the weather. After a week of sunny days up to the 60’s, today everything is covered in ice outside. There hasn’t been a clear weekend in almost a month, and that doesn’t help our shoot of only weekends.
Gives me time to do some more re-writes and tweaks though. Did the math, and we have 47 more pages to shoot. If we can...
I Am Anxious
January 20, 2010
So I haven’t been updating these accounts. It feels like every time I have a spare hour to write, I’m insane if I’m not re-writing scenes to shoot. Features really are marathons. And I’ve never been good at long-distance running.
But with that said, things are still going pretty well. There has been a whole hell of a lot of luck on this project. ...

Day One
December 21, 2009
It’s Monday. We shot our first scene of the movie Saturday, and I couldn’t be happier with the footage we have. We ran in to about as many problems as I expected, but I think we handled them all pretty well. It’s so much work to be the person in charge of a shoot. Thank God I have a producer, but I still have to let him know what we’re going to do so...
Casting
December 12, 2009
We had our first reminder that this is a movie shoot last night. The writing process wasn’t too painful. Finding the few locations we’ve already locked down was easy. Figuring out a vague schedule took no time. And most of the characters in the script were written specifically for friends. But yesterday was our first attempt to cast Meghan, the [sorry to say it]...
