It has been a busy week of preparations. David has been out all week because his family got sick, and their house was hit by the storm. Praise God for his protection-they are all starting to feel better! Jenny and I have been working on pre-production all week. Setting up Elizabeth’s room, taking photos for the house, making prop lists, getting schedules in order. Lots of minor details.
Since we’ve had a few set backs this week, we haven’t filmed anything yet, but it was good to get some of these other details in order. We are scheduled to film tomorrow a really fun montage scene in a public dirty restroom which I’m excited about. We also are auditioning someone for one of the lead police officers and are taking some promo photos.
Today we went to the wig store…so much to say, but don’t want to give anything away. It was a very strange experience, but hilariously strange, not awkwardly strange. Betty’s Wig Store is a really cool store in downtown davenport. You should go check them out, if not to wear a wig for real, for a party or something. It’s actually really fun to have a completely different look for the day.
Another great company you should check out is Whitey’s Ice Cream. They are amazingly generous and are helping us out so much! We couldn’t be making this movie without them and their support. It’s absolutely wonderful to see who God has brought in our paths to help make this movie possible.
We made a lot of graphics today as well, which was productive.
I think thats it for now, tomorrow is a long day and I should call it a night.
Until next time,
MelissaJo
