Quick update

| Friday, February 19, 2010
It's been a little over a week since I posted, so I figured a quick update was due.  The script is coming along, even though I am stuck on the end of episode 1.3.  I'll fight my way through it, but I moved on to subsequent episodes while I work out that little issue.  Even with my struggles in the third episode, I figure I'm just past the half way point of season one, which is kind of exciting.

I planned on starting the recruiting process (actors, actresses, people with film experience, etc.) this week, but after going through some scenes in my head as I scouted locations, I realized I should wait until our area greens up.  I'm not real keen on shooting scenes with brown grass and leave-less trees.  It's only a month away so I can't wait too long as I hope to get this up and running as soon we are back to green down here.

In the meantime, I've been learning some budget film making techniques on http://www.wonderhowto.com/movies-film-theater/.  I need to thank my friend Victor for pointing me to the Jack Black series on this website.  Those videos were my entry point and are very good, but there is a surprising amount of good content on that site.  If you are as crazy as me and want to whip a web series together, this is a good place to start.
