Sorry for not updating in a while! Don’t worry I’m still working on the project. I finally looked over the script with Siraj and the script is now 100% complete. I’ve been reading articles on cinematic storytelling and directing in general. As I move from position to position for this film I am slowly learning the different aspects. Siraj says I should not be running all positions but I feel most comfortable and I feel in that way I can make the story truly mine. Of course I have a few assistants, such as script revisers, grips and definitely actresses. But, I am really running all things technical behind the camera. I picked up a book from the library entitled “Cinematic Storytelling” by Jennifer Van Sijll and I can’t wait to finish it. I picked it up after I read a sample chapter off her site.

I won’t be filming until after labour day because I am awaiting for my Zoom H2 to come in the mail it’s really a remarkable piece of technology. It runs on a SD card, has four condenser mic capsules, and it fits in the palm of my hand. At least this will give me time to prepare and learn before I begin filming!
