Anna (sister for those of you who don't know) flew over to visit for a week. We originally were going to fly out to New Zealand together, but those plans fell through. She did however get the chance to see all the famous sites as well as my personal favorite, Katoomba/ the Blue Mountains (see entry "Katoomba). We also were able to take her to a few Hillsong Sunday Services. For her last few days with us, we got spent the night in a hotel in the city and went to the zoo. I was really glad she managed to get some time to come see us, I wish heaps of my friends from back home would have had the same opportunity.
Today, I focused completely on my short film. Before today, I had only pieces of my script actually shot, but after six hours of straight shooting, I am thrilled to say I am almost done! The scene we shot today was the last and one of the more complicated scenes. It was the finale act and required everything we all had not only to get it done, but to make it a performance worth watching. Needless to say, my cast brought their A game today (even though one of the main characters was casted the night before) and I am completely satisfied with what we were able to capture. I am utterly exhausted. When I got home I crashed on my bed and didn't even roll over till two hours later.
Tomorrow, I will hand off the footage to my editor who is hard at work pasting together and polishing up a finished product with the materials I have already handed over to him. Because the project was delayed due to recasting and reshoots, he is editing and receiving footage while we are out shooting it instead of me being able to hand it all over at once.
In the mean time, enjoy the visuals. Remember, they are raw and unedited, they will be cleaner and more stylized in the finished product.
