Welcome to my Directing 3 film blog!

I will be tracking the typical process of identity crisis, loss of self-esteem, and downward spiral into madness, all of which usually accompany anyone making a film. Oh, and I'll sometimes update how the production is coming along too. 
  
Today I drove around Colonial near the town of Christmas to go location scouting. I need a lot of exteriors that look like the country, and I don't mean Florida's nasty palm fronds, I mean dirt roads, empty fields, junkyards, trailers, that sort of thing. Maybe even orange groves, which I found plenty.
  
It was a lot of fun and I found some good places so I'm not really sure how to go about the next step of locking those locations. I mean, some fields didn't have houses so how do I know who's it is? Oh no, I'm already getting boring. 
 
 I have no idea who I'm going to use for the male lead in my film. He'll be doing VO throughout so he has to not only look good but have a soothing voice haha. It's going to be tough.

I'm still fixing my script so if anyone wants to look at it and give me pointers before I do a 2nd draft, give me your e-mail so I can send it to you.

  2. BTW - all your questions about location permits can be answered by Dale Gordon when she comes to class.
