GOODBYE TO ALL ,,,,,,,, MAYBE I WILL JUST FIND TWO LADIES AND BUY THEM A WRAP DRINK NEXT TIME ,,,,,,, If there is ever a next time ,,,,,,,

JUST CLICK on OLDER POST below ,,,,,, to see ALL THE SHOOT DAYS

1 DAY LEFT ,,, and this is it THE LAST DAY ,,,,,, We start with some phoney shot to get warmed up ..

THIS SHOT IS JUST 2 PHONEY FOR WORDS .............. I do like translights ,,,,,, We have the playback from the matching shot on the monitor and just go for it ,,,,,

Cant actually shoot with the non moving waves in the BG as needed ,,,,, we did find a useable angle ,,,,,,,,, It wasnt really needed in the cut anyway ,,, I am told ,,,,,,,

Now for the day shot ,,,,,,,,

Still phony ,,,,, No not in the long lens REAL shot ,,,,

Scott has to get up out of his Stand In Chair and actually stand up on an apple box for a bit ,,,,,

He is getting motivated ,,,,,, it a real shot ,,,, 'Now do I press the buttons first then lift the phone or lift the phone then press the buttons' he he he

Poor Scott ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Christopher is not impressed ,,, he is reading the Film trade magazines to see what other jobs are about ,,,,,,,,, Mike is thinking ,,,,, 'Scott is going to blow this take and I will have to load a New mag just for the last few shots' ,,,,,,,,,,,

Scott is thinking ' I think I can do this shot' Its a real shot ,,,, I am Not just a stand in ,,, I am a star ,,,,
Did they say 'Press the Buttons First ' ??????

Dammmm someone give me some motivation please ,,,,,,,,,!!!!

Dammmmmm I am much better doing the Sit in Stand in Thing ,,,,,,,,,,,,

Hey here we are in the Lounge Room ,,,,,,, after playing with phoney shots

It just seems like yesterday that we were Shooting at Jesse's Favourite place ,,,,,

Mike And Paul ,,,,,,, Sort out A & B camera ,,,,,, Where is B camera ,,,?

Lets do the Pouring shot again ,,, Takes me back to my extensive commercial experience ,,,,

Scott likes these shots because he get to sit down and rest a lot ,,,,,, Thinking up his next funny line I suppose ,,,,,,,,, Not ,,, he he .

Am I wrong or is everone looking like they want to phone someone here ,,,, even the Dog ,,

Now what is Ella thinking here ? ,, mmmm 'Is this really the Last day' Or if she was fortelling the future ,,,,,,, 'Why are they not employing me on the next one' ,,,, he he ... NNAaAHHH ,,, she is looking at the scotch and thinking ,,, 'I am looking forward to wrap' and maybe ,,, 'If Gribs is going for a wrap drink at the Shoe ,,,,, I am going to say ,,,, Yes I"ll be there and then just not turn up ' he he he he ,,,,,,,,,,

And Tom is thinking ,,,, 'If Gribs is going for a wrap drink at the Shoe ,,, I am definitely not going' ,,,, he he
And Gribs is thinking ,,,,, 'Wow look at that shot of the Last bit of sun before the Big storm is coming' ,,,,,,,,
Gribs is thinking ' I better shoot another one' ,,,,,,,,,,,
And then MAYBE ,,,,, I wonder if anyone is interested in a Wrap Drink at the SHOE tonight ?

Shit that must be a wrap ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

2 DAYS TO GO . Dont you just hate Reshoot insurance days ,,,,, Everybody has their wish list ,,,, And you do bits of EVERYTHING from the FILM

Here we are Back at the Dreaded AST ,,,,,, Paradise Police Headquarters ,,,, For some reshoot Abuse ......... Here is the Lovely Christopher Porter ... ( Who so kindly agreed to break from his Camerman schedule and help me by Gaffering the Show ) He is learning here to Beat up the Sound Department ,,, A requirement for some Cinematography these days ...

But how could you ...... To the more Lovely Jane Porter ....... No relation ,,,, I think ?

Here we go again ,,,,,,, Thank you Mother Fogger ,, Who ever you were ,,,,, Thank you for sending us back in time to redo what was fogged

Was it better the second time around ,,,,,,,,,,,, ??????

Could he be saying ,,,,,,,, For GOD sake dont Fog this UP ,,,

OOHHH This again mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Looking at this Frame ,,,,,, You have to concentrate on JUST the frame you are shooting ,,, Dont be put of by double Venetian shadows just out of frame ,,, You cant waste time on stuff that is not seen ,,,,,, But be very sure what you are going to see in the scene ,,,,,,,

At least here you can see what it takes to give a Lady a soft key ,,,

I have a Big Feeling of Dayzarvu ... ,,, 'Day' being me and 'zarvu' being ,,, doing it again ,,, From the Franco Latin Root meaning to be stuffed up the Zarvu by the Lab ,,,,,,,, he he he ,,,, Do I take it Fogging personally ,,,,,,, No Way ,,,, Not me ,,,,, he he he . Pardon my French ,,, as my mother used to say .

Same Same ...
Same Same ,,,,,,, Lets move on TO >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

We have to shoot another Car interior before moving to the Studio set

Its another straight through the Windscreen ,,, I make it a Soft frame right behind camera ...

And then another another Quick hand held set up from Chris Ball ,,,

Christopher Porter ,,,,, Gaffering this set up ,,,, not many days to go now Chris ,,, It has been fun ,,,

Back to the House of DOOM ,,... How many years has it been now ,,,,, A set with steps going down ,,, easy to shoot off the ceiling ,,,,, I got a foot added to the top years ago ,,, Thank you Chapman ,, But we do know this set well ... Translights and all .......

We get in a few setups before the day is done ...

Look at that low ceiling ,,,,,, Time to stop looking and wrap for the day ,,,,, We will be back tomorrow for the last Studio wrap day ,,,,,,,

3 DAYS TO GO .... A Beaut SUNRISE to wake up to ,,,, Just have to look to my left and there it is

I have seen quite a few Sunrises from this window ,,,,,, another interesting one to start the day ,

We start off in the Church interior with a Longish lens shot ,,, Trying to keep the Golden look that I first observed duting the recce ,,, but on the otherside of the church ,,,,,

We get some interesting shots with A camera tracking and B camera long lens static .

A couple of 18K help out with the weather ,

This is a Shot from the Recce ,,,,,,, That gave me the look of the Gold light ...... Who is that guy ? He keeps getting in all the location shots ,,, I had better warn the security to be on the look out for him ,,,,,,,, I feel we are being Stalked by this Man ,,,, I look around and I see him everywhere ,,,, very unsettling .

This was our A Camera Dolly Shot and B Camera Static long lens set ups ,,

This was the other half of the Stitch frame ,,,, if you know what I mean ,,
