My Life to Live

Last Day of Conv. 27 Production. Just the living room. Yay. I took the job in stride. Nothing much to do except worry about the hard wrap tonight. I actually had time to sit and watch the shots thru video-assist. The shots are nice. Even though the team may have bickered over some details of the production, it's going nicely. Everyone agrees that this may be the best Full Sail film yet. Really.

With the end of final handheld shot, the production was OVER! I couldn't believe the moment had come. Everyone shook hands with everybody. The emotion was high. The camaradeship shared. I may make more films, but this was the moment I will remember for the rest of my life.

Sobo pulled great prank at the last minute, by dropping fake reel on the floor, exposing the negatives, causing panic attack on Tom. When I saw it, I just couldn't believe it just happened. But for Tom, all he could think was what was in that can and what shots needed to be reshoot, if there's such plan if it actually happened... Great laugh all around.

The wrap party at Ryan Allen's house. He got freakin' big TV! Everyone's so happy that the production is over, mingling over the liquors and smokes. Everyone let themselves go including Adam and Ron. I was nominated to have the smoothest legs--don't ask, in the group. Fun party for the fun people.
