I just got home from our final day of preproduction. Principal photography begins tomorrow morning!
Today was really busy. I spent most of the morning updating a huge list of volunteers and extras. We've been networking with a few local churches and schools and have found a ton of people who want to be involved in our project.
The cast is set and most of the actors were in town today for a table reading we held this afternoon. A table reading is exactly what it sounds like; we have all the talent gather in a large circle and we read through the script so the actors can get a feel for their parts and the rest of us can see how the film will flow and what parts need tooling. I'll post a list of the cast in the next couple days but they are all very talented and are going to make this film look great.
As I mentioned above, filming officially begins tomorrow morning. We'll be shooting on set in our soundstage at Universal. We'll begin with several scenes in Brady's apartment.
Speaking of Brady, I've been asked to be the stand-in for our Brady actor for the duration of the shoot. A stand-in essentially stands in (duh...) place of the actor so lighting and photography can get everything ready for the actual shoot. I'll be really busy dividing my time between that and casting, but I'm certainly looking forward to it. This whole adventure is one learning experience after another. Maybe someday I'll be the one needing a stand-in...
Please do check back every day for more updates. Now that things are busy and we're filming every day I'll certainly have tons to share.
More to come tomorrow!
