Yesterday was the shoot date for our flagship short film Hear Me Now.
Eighteen sandwiches were made, costumes were donned, makeup was applied and troops and kit alike were marshalled. We made our way from Unit base along Crane River for about 30 minutes (not in point of fact ten, as I optimistically recollected from the location scout) on foot to our beautiful location. The sun was shining; the Gods were smiling too, for the most part. Admittedly we had a few unwanted extras (and I know they always said not to work with children or animals, but if they will insist on swimming into frame what can you do). But intermittant holdups notwithstanding the shoot went extremely well, and looking back on the footage I am thrilled to bits with the performances from my brilliant cast, as well as being very satisfied from all technical standpoints. I'm looking forward to doing an assembly edit tomorrow.
So....so far, so good.
Cast and crew for the shoot were fantastic. I'm very grateful to everyone for their hard work. Some behind the scenes shots can be seen in the collage above, courtesy of Seán Branigan.
