Off to make another movie...
Next, I am off for a 5-wk shoot in Gonzales, TXto work as a camera assistant on another HD feature called "August Evening". First prep day is 18 Aug, and we may shoot through 25 Sept, depending on the breaks. I'm very excited about the project, because I may be called upon to light some scenes and perhaps even operate the camera. What most guys don't realize is that I will make fine cinematographer -- I just need a chance to show it! I finished reading the script last night. It's full of emotion -- more than any other project I've worked on, and it's sure to get noticed on the film festival circuit because of the subject matter. The director loves to shoot in other languages. His last short film was shot in Japan in Japanese (he doesn't speak the language). This one will be mostly in Spanish, and he speaks no Spanish, either! It tickles me to think about how Chris comes up with these ideas. I know I'll have a blast as I camp out with the rest of the crew there in Gonzales.
