As For Resolutions...

As for my resolution regarding posting weekly, may I add an addendum? I want to post at least weekly when not absolutely going out of my mind spending every waking moment on a film set...minus my day or two off, which I spend sleeping, doing laundry, and catching up on my week of life.

Thus, I am resolved to tell you of the excitement, or perhaps lack thereof, on set. Mostly it's pretty slow on this show. But, on a happier note, I have met some really cool people: like Matty Props (for those of you who don't know, you don't have last names in the film industry, it's a first name and then your department...yeah, it's weird). Anyway, Matty smashed his middle finger in a garage door the other day and now, since it's broken and in a splint, he finds it quite amusing to walk around flipping people off. Not going to lie, it is pretty funny!

And there's my fellow PA buddies, they're awesome. We have fun, probably too much. The rest of the AD department are pretty much rockin'. We have parties in the production hole every night. It rocks.

The whole camera department are rock stars. Seriously. The art department are kind of enigmatic, especially when Chris (the production designer) cuts off his luscious locks, and no one even recognized him at first! And, strangely enough, the same thing happened when Andy from the grip department cut his hair...hmm...

The grip and electric department definitely provide the comic relief during the down times. They're pretty amazing.

Darcy is crafty (the person who provides all the snackage), and she is super. She's giving me soup recipes, which I rather enjoy! And, speaking of food, our catering boys are way too much fun, and always provide a smile and a plate of food, which is definitely appreciated.

Then there's Telly Wardrobe, who provides us with enjoyment by writing down all of the random quotes from set. It's funny. Seriously funny. All of the hair/makeup/wardrobe ladies are lovely.

And the above the line peeps: like MB, the UPM, she's always fun. Especially when her walkie starts keying and everyone can hear her conversations... Stephen, the line producer, has been giving me much needed advice regarding my newest hobby that I have yet to actually do: snowboarding. And you know, the director Rob, and DP Geno... I've learned great things from them... like how I shouldn't eat sea urchins and how to smell steak from a mile away.

At any rate, many cool people. Oh, and did I mention Christopher Lloyd? Yeah, the one and only Doc came and was in our film. He was super nice, but quite shy and quiet! Ray Liotta is also here, but my favorite is definitely Doug E. Doug. You know, from Cool Runnings! He's the nicest, most chill guy ever! It's awesome!

So, I finish up this show on Friday... and I'll have a life again. Imagine...
