Last Saturday, we filmed out on the quad. I knew we were going to get a lot of attention from students because we had a huge rig and crane set up right in front of the Student Center. It was a cold day out, but all of the extras that came were amazing. We ran into some difficulty using the crane, but Cody and Zach did a great job regardless. Since we were getting a lot of attention from students wanting to know what we were doing with a camera attached to a crane on the quad, Vinny decided that we needed to put up signs all around campus explaining what exactly "The Mercury Cycle" is. And I'm glad we did, because every time I walk around campus, I see one and I know that other people are seeing them too.
This weekend was insane. We worked from 11am until 1:30am on Saturday, and then 8:45 am-5pm on Sunday. I am so proud of the entire crew, they were all amazing through out the entire weekend. We did a lot of shots with David Thomas McLaine (Shamus) on Saturday and with Jessica (Lana) on Sunday. It is coming together so well!
We are filming this weekend in New York, and I'm excited to see how that comes out!
Good strategy to publicize the project's name while working on campus. The footage from that long weekend looked good.
