day 3 of a 30-day shoot.
we've been shooting in a lovely old-style house for the past three days. not much of an adventure, except for the fact that the house is by a river, and at sunset the view is beautiful by the dock when the light hits the wavelets and the wind is blowing through the trees. (ahlavet. will post pictures one of these days). but other than that we're in one place the whole day (and night) and will still remain in the same location for the next two days.
numenext level ang script continuity dito ha. they're stricter with getting everything on paperwork. when in the last movie project i didn't rely so much on the digicam as a handy tool for set/wardrobe/makeup continuity, now it's indispensable. i even get to use polaroids now, which i never got to use before, and i would have loved it except for two things: 1) it's too bulky to carry around, and 2) the film is so reputedly dang expensive that you can't use it to your heart's content. bummer, eh.
yikes, getting technical there. but the past three days have been pretty exhausting. not only physically, not really emotionally. i just feel like a really tired soul sometimes. is the fire dying? i hope not. maybe it's just the blahs. maybe it's just the distance from the ones i love. maybe it's just vietnam and the friggin language barriers. i just need some sleep and tomorrow i'll be on fire again.
the best thing about this is that i now get to do a few more things that i haven't really conscientiously done before in past projects. i get to acquire new methods. of course i still am grappling with my own style of organization, but at least there IS a method. and now i get to use polaroids. haha.
day 4 tomorrow. mostly night scenes. we'll start at around 4 pm and will definitely be up all night. maybe i need some extra joss right now. but, like so many other things (and so many other significant persons) in the current life, extra joss is miles away.
hay, miss na kita. extra joss.
