ICEBREAKER, DAY 7
Today’s shoot is taking place in Minnehaha Park in Minneapolis. The scene calls for Sam & Tina to be sitting on a bench talking as several different types of men pass by.
Crew call is 10am. After lugging all the equipment from my Aztec and Eric Lee’s truck (Eric is helping with the generator and other duties today) we begin setting up. The location is simple- a park bench with the park in the background.
The generator is not quitest in the least. We decide that the best location for it is down a stairwell. We lug it down and Eric implements the ICEBREAKER NOISEBUSTER (patent pending) that he built which will act as a noise filter. It worked great. The generator was totally inaudible from where we were shooting. We ran the power cords up through the woods and we were in business.
At 11:00 one of our featured extras, Brad Hatzenbeller (playing sexy GQ guy) showed up followed by Dawn Brodey (Tina) and Emily Fradenburgh (Sam). Nicole got them through make-up while we were blocking and shortly thereafter we were ready to shoot.
The shoot went very smooth. Everything was in place. The weather was awesome and the crew was dead on. Our fetured extras did a bang up job, Brad as "GQ guy" and Henry Cho as "Married Man" with his dog Sam. Thanks guys!
I can’t wait for everyone to see Chad in his cameo. It is hilarious. Stay tuned.
There was a homeless guy with a boom-box wandering around wearing a shirt that he had written: FUCK BU$H on. I had to bribe him with ice for his alchoholic beverage in a McDonald’s cup that he was carrying aorund so that he would leave us alone.
Like I said, the shoot couldn’t have gone better. Here’s to hoping that Day 8 (also at the park) goes as well as Day 7. Good job everyone!!!
