Behold, the solution to last time’s lighting problems. Lights in a bag!
The cardboard helps the lights in the back from being in the bag. For the next scene, we might try using something besides Christmas lights.
We’re also working out how to log our shots so that they can be easily lined up with the sound track later. At the beginning of each line we have written down the frame in which the waveform begins. The marker on the right shows the different camera angles as well. Hopefully we’ll know what all this means a year from now when we’re in post!
And finally, some interesting statistics:
- Estimated runtime: 18 mins.
- Approximate total number of frames: 12fps x 18 mins. = 13,000 frames
- Approximate frame progress: 3.1% (397/13000 frames)
- Script progress: 3.3% (115/3,510 words incl. direction)
- Scene progress: Currently filming scene 1 of 9
- Approximate number of filming days remaining: 12600/220 frames per day = 57 days
- Approximate filming completion date: 57 days / 3 days per month = April, 2014??
Until next time,
-Mike and Steve
