Director's Journal - April 2nd, 2005

What could be better than mixing poker with filmmaking? NOTHING. Come on, keep up. We had a very fun scene on the agenda today involving the group playing poker and deciding how they are going outwit their newest adversaries. We rehearsed the hell out of the scene so that it finally was coming off relaxed and fun like I wanted it to. We decided to add a bunch of smoke to the scene to give it a cool look, which Givani and Branden took great pride in with their cigarettes. It looks really sweet on the dailies, but the buildup of smoke almost killed us all. Wouldn't that have been terrible yet tragically funny at the same time. The police find the cast of EA dead in a garage/turned filming studio. A scene gone awry. When we finished the scene and opened the garage door, this huge plume of smoke went outside. With that our neighbors changed their bets that we were filming porn to the new Reefer Madness film. (shout out to chris for letting me watch some of that on his HD TV yesterday). I can't wait to edit this scene, the camera was always moving on the dolly so if it cuts well, wow, Dan will be happy.
