Tails

“Tails” refers to the tail slate, the clap at the end of a take when things get flipped around—and this blog is just that: a flipped-around peek behind the scenes of my second feature.

Fixed some major location issues today. But we also found out that the food situation with our first location is not what we thought it was.

Maybe found a solve for an animal issue I was going to have. We’ll see how that shakes out. Don’t write animals into movies. I knew that rule and I didn’t listen to it. Now I’m paying for it.

Learning how to use scriptation. I think it’s going to make a huge difference in keeping my thoughts organized when filming and to help me edit in post.

Just remembered I have to learn Resolve for editing.

Still having some issues with casting. it’s taking so long to close the long form deal with the lead. And costumes is desperate for sizes. I tried casually texting the actor about their sizes today and I think it only led to shutting down my chat with her.

Hoping I can resolve some more casting issues tomorrow.

Crew continues to be amazing. I don’t think I’ll ever shut up about them and I won’t apologize for it.
