Back Van

Yep, I'm back. Had a hell of a flight home. Delayed leaving Antigua, missed second flight, re-routed through NY, delayed, 4 hours layover in NY, delay, arrived at 2 am (was supposed to be 7pm).

Fortunately though, we got everything shot. It was a pretty close call though! On our last day in Dominica we were attempting for a 3rd time to shoot the last scene that we needed; a scene that had eluded us twice before in Antigua. Well, needless to say, 3rd time was NOT a charm, and what was a quite botanical garden with no one in sight on the day we scouted it became a haven for horn-friendly motorist, 2-stroke wielding gardeners, and major migratory path for a swarm of hundreds of elementary students. So we scrapped that location and we were literally on our way to the airport, with an hour left before our flight departed, when we came across a seemingly abandoned Botanical Gardens which we were able to bust the scene off in, relatively uninterrupted, and we were still able to make it to the airport in time to catch our flight!

So now begins the post-production process. Luke and I are going to share the editing workload, Natalie's boyfriend is going to help us with some of the special FX, and we're still in need of a sound designer/folly artist. I still haven't had time to get those pictures up, but I'm working on it, so stay calm! ;)

Until later,
