Preproduction and TinyChat

Preproduction rolls merrily along with the help of Carlos’ great find of Tinychat, a free chat room and video conference website.

With me in Los Angeles, Carlos in Seattle, and our cinematographer, David Berry, in Austin, we could still go page-by-page through the script. Our goal is to create a unified vision for the look and feel of Judas Kiss.

After three production meetings, and almost twenty hours of debating, explaining, yelling, crying, laughing, and yelling some more, we are just about done with only a handful of pages left to work through.

So many productions have these same questions arise during the actual filming of a movie. I believe it’s so much more productive (and cheaper) to deal with these things now.

We’ll be going through Judas Kiss again with the intention of creating a shot list. But until then I’ll be off to Canada on a very special business trip with Carlos and some future business partners.

Stay tuned! We’ll be making some very special announcements in the weeks ahead.

Arguing these things out ahead of time is definitely better than when you have a cast and crew standing around on set. You know it’s going to happen, so do it the inexpensive way, between just the three of you.

We await it patiently.
