“Crushing Violet”
I have been on the set of “Crushing Violet” this last month, an advanced directing project at USC.
The main crew is made up of students all excelling in their individual crafts. There are two sound people (Ian and me), two director of photographers (Abe and Mike), an assistant director (Dawn), a production designer (Victoria), two producers (Josh and Annie), two editors (Amy and Thaiha), and one director (Joe). We all work together to make the movie happen! We have received amazing compliments from actors, crew and faculty about the environment on our set and how it is very professional. We are all very respectful of each other and listen. We also joke around a lot and have tons of fun!
This upcoming weekend is our last principal weekend of shooting (meaning, the last weekend to film our movie!). We may have pick-ups in a few weeks (a weekend of shooting anything we missed in our principal weekends).
Here are some production stills:
Christian, our second assistant director, Dawn, our assistant director, and Victoria, the production designer, smile after a long weekend of shooting!
On a sound stage lighting the car. The director of photographers made the sound stage look like the outside of a house. It was amazing!
Since the actress has blond hair, I often have to be her “sit-in.” They light me until they are ready for her to come onto set and rehearse.
