so there's two gorillas sitting in a zoo
Lets just say for every mistake we made during the course of shooting, we learned from it. This means, mistakes made in all departments. Not that there were a lot of them, but there were some and we learned from them. Actors can me late sometimes, equipment may have been forgotten, crew members may be late, images may be too dark, camera moves may be too difficult, the sun is all up in your grill, things get stressful, a few times pushing people to almost snap, crew members disappear at lunch leaving the set short handed, people get tired, flustered, confused, crazy, they laugh, have fun, and say the F word a lot, these are just the kinds of things you face when filming a movie. I learned a lot. Just working with a full crew was a new experience, and we were a crew long enough to adjust to one another, like/hate each other. Because of this, in 7 months when this movie premieres, even if its crap,( not that it will be) but if its a huge failure, it will mean something to everyone who worked on it. We will be watching the screen saying on yeah I'm totally hiding just behind that box, or I was holding that reflector that made that shot look awesome, or that was my camera move. And then to yourself you will say "Son of a Bitch... I made a movie."
