considering my new mini-movie is only about eight minutes long...i suppose i didn't really need a trailer for it but it gave my second unit something to do...i think it might actually be better than the movie...
i'm working...a lot...so much in fact that i've been sick for the last couple of weeks and whilst sick i've had barely any sleep...me and the rest of my crew have been working 14 hr days whilst still balancing our school schedule. i'm pissed that i've yet to see slumdog millionaire. if i'm not working i'm in school and if i'm not in either...i'm probably at a bar somewhere but it's late at night and i've probably already missed the last screening. it's starting to get painfully cold here. it's awesome! it really is but it's also painful. i'm wearing up to three layers of clothes (and i hate layers) every day. by january i may be up to five. i'm on a steady diet of chicken soup, dayquil, nyquil, and booze. i feel alright for the most part...until i sober up. then things get a little fucked. but anyway...
sophia and i at work... shooting a ridiculous "party" scene. (fancy photos by fancy daniele napolitano)
antonia and i ... also party scene...
on ben's shoot in central park
ben's a really talented director and the stuff i'm shooting for him is stuff i'm pretty proud of.
working with matheius on set in battery park.
a bed fell on me while we were shooting...i have some bruises on rib-cage. OH! and a second after the bed collapsed on me, whilst i was underneath it...a light fell down onto a pair of my pants (i wasn't wearing them ... they were just used as set dressing) and lit them on fire. i guess every shoot i have has to have one moment where everything falls apart...
i've been working with a really really really amazing crew that served as my "adhoc" team for the last two weeks. we all seem to get along pretty well and they're all skillfully trained-bad-ass-assassin-movie-makers.
when he's not a rad-ass director...ben's an amazing assistant director. this was the first day shooting my mini.
more pictures by daniele from the set on our last day...
ya'all probably can't tell but in order to give sophia the "what dream girls are made of..." look, i modeled her get-up after diane keaton's "look" in annie hall.
and just to reassure everyone that some things never change here's some super ass ugly pictures of me:
...anyway, for those of you on the west coast...i'll be shipping out rough cuts of the new mini-movie to friends over there so if any of ya'all would like one...lemme know. hope yer all well!
