In every film things never go quite as planned. Somethings just do not work the way you want them or they turn out better than you imagined. Kris has been trying to do the latter of the two for this film. The house we are in has just about everything we need to bring the story of "Johannes Cabal and the Blustery Day" by Jonathan Howard, to life.
When we arrived on set we went over the plan for the night and then went over one pressing matter, a door at the top of the stairs. There is a scene that Cabal has to run to the top of the stairs and slam the door then go to his lab. As beautiful as the house we did not have this luxury. Lucky for us Kris and Evan are both very creative people. We found a closet door and blocked it out that all we see is our Actor, David, and the door. After we figured this out we set a few things up and left for supper.
When we got back we had one goal, finish all the night scenes. We didn't but we finished as many as we could. We had to stop early because we were occupying the owners master bedroom and it was midnight. Even though we didn't get as many scenes done as we wanted we were able to keep everything taped off and come back the next night and finish up.
The best part of our first night of filming was the connections that we all made. Kris and Evan just work so well together. We all laughed and joked and began to create something that I think we can all be proud of. I took quite a few stills of the crew.
Keep watching for more of our South Carolina filming adventure!
