RST: Shoot - Day 1

Penguin August 21st, 2008

Tuesday was our first day of shooting Red String Theory. It was weird just being the camera operator. I did my best to just follow instructions and give suggestions as necessary, but I didn’t want to be a backseat director. This was Jesse’s shoot.

We started the shoot half an hour behind schedule but still managed to make our day early. I’m used to barely making my day or running a little over. But then again, I usually only have about 2 hrs to shoot.

There were plenty of shots I wish I had either a jib or a dolly. After watching a lot of great films, I realized one of the big things that sets cinema apart from amateur films is the camera movement. They just LOOK expensive.

Our second shoot is Friday, and hopefully, we’ll be able to wrap it.
