Today is the same as yesterday, slow. I’m starting on my blog earlier than usual because I am waiting for Badesch to get through helping other people so we can work on something for the movie. Nobody is doing a blog anymore. I believe I’m the only one who is doing one everyday. I’m afraid to just sit here and do nothing, but I know someone is going to say something and Badesch is going to yell or something. So I gotta keep a low profile on what I am doing, so I do a blog. [and he does trailers for the movie, learns video editing and helps where help is needed – Ed. Note]

Davis Brothers Back
July 23, 2007
Today, we had our 1st Director Terrell and his brother Lennell back. I guess they talked something over so they can come back. But they are assisting editor Jamal with certain parts, they are having fun on one part. Mostly everyone was working on a trailer or teaser for the majority of the day. We have someone working on the invitations/flyers, and two people working on DVD cover. This day was moving slowly at first, but now I felt it picking up. Yesterday was my birthday and I didn’t do anything but stay home, some people wished me a Happy Belated Birthday today, and some looked at me funny or didn’t talk to me. I feel useless because I don’t have anything to do yet but wait on the video to be finished and that is taking too long. I wish they can finish up, just so I can get done with what I need to get finished

Getting There
July 20, 2007
Today is slow, isn’t much to do today. This is going to be a long boring weekend because my birthday is Sunday. I’m not really excited like I was, but I got to stay focused on work. This program is over in a week, and we have to really rush now. Everyone is almost done, but we don’t need to be done with certain things until Tuesday. Blooper reel is almost done I guess, and I’m ready to go home and sleep. Festivals are almost done, but they need to send in information by Elizabeth Donius. We have the screening for the movie next moth, but we don’t know exact date yet.

Accounting 101
July 19, 2007
Today was a very fast day, because Mrs. Stackhouse (over this program) wanted us to come downstairs to do an accounting meeting on how to manage our accounts. Most of us were wondering why she wanted to do this meeting now, and she should have done this before we got paid last week? But we were down there about 2 hours; I knew most of the stuff they were trying to teach us. They even had us doing math, it’s not like I don’t like it, but I wasn’t in the mood to be doing math problems. I was kind of bored just sitting there listening to someone trying to teach me something I already knew, but they gave us candy. I swear that everybody who was in the room bum rushed the desk at the end to get candy, but they had us in two different rooms doing the same thing. When we got back up here into the room, we went back to our post-production jobs; it was really fast after then. I am practically done with the DVD, but I need to wait for everyone else to get through with editing their parts so I can input footage into this DVD.

Catching Up
July 18, 2007
We have finished filming the movie, and we are in post production. I haven’t done a blog in a week, so here is a quick recap over the past week. We have lost the Director Terrell Davis, and his brother Lennell who was doing soundtrack and was helping the PA’s carrying equipment. But we have recovered from the loss; the new Director was Angelica Allen who was previously mainly working as Producer. It was a hard working week with a lot of attitudes, laughs, losses, and accomplishments.
We had to carry heavy equipment from one floor to another. I swear when we were shooting the scene in the house when Matthew (Andy) was doing the shower scene (he had shorts on people, what type of minds do you have?), the doc crew came up out of nowhere and began filming him. They weren’t doing their job on that day, but they sprung into action when he was half naked. We got paid on July 13, 2007, and everybody didn’t have the same amount because they didn’t come to work on time.
We didn’t have as many extras as we wanted, but we had to make use of them all. We finished on Monday July 16, 2007, and now we have to work extra hard. Now we have people editing the movie, documentary, film festival entries, photos, and me I’m doing the DVD. It’s very confusing, but once you get the hang of it, it’s really easy until you don’t know how to do something else on there. But I have to wait for the editors and doc to finish so I can input some video into the DVD. But once we get through with all of this, the program will be over next Friday.

First Day of the Shoot
July 10, 2007
Today was the first day of shoot for this movie; I was really excited in the morning. I was pumped, but it was really boring at times because people were bothering us while we were trying to shoot certain parts and too many different noises in the background. I had to set up this extra large tent by myself at first; I could only get it half way until I finally got help when they got to the next location. We had the trained animal changed from a dog to a raccoon, most people were scared of it until we started to shoot. While we were filming one part, this old man came out his house and told us to get from in front of his house before he comes outside. What was he going to do? Nag us to death, him and his old German shepherd? They both looked like they needed to be on walkers, smelling like cheap old Pine-Sol. This was a long day; I was tired when I got home because I had to walk down Jeffery to catch another bus. I wonder what the next day will bring us.

Nerves Enter The Picture
July 9, 2007
Today we were doing more practice for the movie, tomorrow is the beginning of production. The money bags of this group, Elizabeth, took art department shopping for food for all week, and for the movie. I was really bored today, I guess because I’m nervous about this week. But I know nothing bad will happen; only I hope. But I got a feeling someone isn’t going to be with us anymore.
