LITM Day Two: More Calabasas
10 May 2009
Good morning! At the start of the second day of shooting, with the dogs barking like crazy here at the Calabasas house, I offer a frank summary of yesterday: inefficient.
Let’s be honest, there’s a lot of waiting on any set. And in almost any new endeavor in any field there are often start-up issues and time killers galore on day one. So I simply did what I could to overlook the down time. In all, I feel good about how I did my stuff yesterday, and that’s what you can do. And it helped in a sense, because Guy is laid-back, but not pleased with how the day is going at his house.
The other thing to say about yesterday is that everybody here is nice, easy to work with, and all that. A good group. Excellent!
Today is Mothers Day, and we’re back in Calabasas, shooting indoors scenes. The cast is smaller today, but the dogs are barking. They weren’t barking yesterday. But it only helps, because Guy has a couple of lines like “Damn dog,” or worse. ’Sall good.
