Screenshots: "The Job"

Shmello. I am running on two hours of sleep (and to be honest, it's not even for a good reason... no bananagrams, no connect-the-dots, and worst of all, no vanilla wafers...), so I'm posting these screenshots and then promptly passing out!

So without further ado...

Dana (Laura M.) is dreaming of a true love's kiss.Pollock (Aaron M.) has 24-one hour increments to save the world from a constant terrorist threat.

High school spanish teacher Georga (Laura Q.) forms a singing club filled with talented misfits. Hijinks ensue.

Dana (Laura M.) and Pollock (Aaron M.) begin a journey to unite the various Arabian desert tribes against the Turks.A newspaper-mogul/dog (Frederick) dies in seclusion, leaving many to question the signifance of his last words.Marcos (Marcos), Georgia (Laura Q.) and Jason (Jeff B.) all think it was you who stole the cookies from the cookie jar.Jenn (Jenn D.), a firey and spoiled Southern belle, copes with life, love, and death during the Civil War. "I know it was you Pollock. You broke my heart.""Whoops. That's not supposed to go there..."Grandma Julie (Sheila M.) is not impressed by the flower in your hair.Someone ate Dana's (Laura M.) sesame cake.

I got nothing...

Hey Ryan, way to take an extraordinarily long time to do this.

Anatomy of a Shot-listing Sesh

So, this Friday night we start shooting for the short film The Job. Everything is hectic but looks like this bad boy is gonna go off without a hitch... In fact, I just finished a major shotlisting sesh with my dear friend, compatriot, and d.p., Eric. 

Also, I am so blown away by the gloriousness of his iPad, that I had to take a photo and post:

Shotlisting Sesh1. Semi opaque "white"-board to draw terrible representations of beautiful people

2. An Apple iPad serving as a script reader (also side note. with the new RED cameras, they're making software to go on the iPad to stream a video signal from the camera via wiFi to use it as a live monitor. Crazy? One-up time: you'll also be able to (1) smart slate with the iPad and (2) use it to control the camera's settings such as aperture, shutter speed, etc! WHAAAAAAT?)

3. Old-school white printer paper serving as a script for those unfortunate enough not to own an iPad

4. A MacBook Pro to play rehearsal videos and actually type up the shotlist... because that's the only thing the iPad can't do 

5. A busy man

I swear this will look better with real people in 4kThe end! Until next time. I'll be getting no sleep...
