Harley…

Posted by on August 28, 2013 at 7:06 am

I have a new short that’s coming together called Harley. The story is an important one to tell for me. I really love it. I’m in the process of casting it now. I have all the Rome costumes ready to go, but still no location. This is why period pieces are so difficult. I don’t […]

Location Lost…

I checked out the location for Rome 444 today, and unfortunately the space is just not going to work for our purposes. It’s not worth doing the scene if it doesn’t look right. It has to be delayed, and I do not know when we will be able to pick it up again as we […]

Rehearsals…

The setting of the lobby at the Roosevelt Hotel Hollywood was a perfect choice for Rehearsals. It’s old world architecture put everyone in the mood, and all the actors did incredible. Josh and Amber have a great chemistry together, and I can’t wait to capture it all on camera. Gabriella is perfect as Antonia. My […]

Last night I got out my sewing kit and went to work on the costumes using ones I had bought with material to embellish it. This is Queen Camilla’s costume Before and After… I hadn’t sewn anything significant since I was a girl scout, but it all came back to me. It was fun to […]

I went to a Fabric store today to buy some fabric to embellish the costumes I chose for Rome 444. I will be sewing on the fabric tonight, and I found some GORGEOUS gold ric rac braid ribbon for Queen Camilla’s costume. As soon as I saw it, I knew it was the perfect adornment, […]

So Much to Do, So Little Sleep…

There are a few tweaks left for the color and sound on J&B, but it is essentially done! Woohoo!!! It looks so wonderful, and I can’t wait to share it with everyone! All that is left now are the effects shots. Yesterday, I worked on a trailer and have now handed it to Brad to […]

Location Secured, and Costume on the Way!

Posted by on August 17, 2013 at 5:17 am

We secured our location to shoot Rome 444. FINALLY! It’s been an extensive search that has led me to some very expensive places. You need a big budget to rent any place in this town. Now that we have a place that was actually somewhat affordable, I am so relieved. It was getting to the […]

Possible location

It looks like we may have a possible location for Rome 444. I should know by tomorrow. One of the scenes that I’ll be shooting is one of my favorites from the script. It’s a very impassioned fight that turns into a very passionate kiss. Brad is working on J&B right now, doing some of […]

Visualization

Posted by on August 13, 2013 at 6:02 am

As a very visual person, I always see the shots flash through my brain as I write. Knowing the story I’m writing is out of my budget can be a real downer, but I try not to let that affect everything I write. At least my brain can think up these amazing images that are […]
