Things went well on the first day. While it didn't seem like we got a lot done, it felt good to be behind the camera again.

Luis, the male lead, got a kick out of drinking a beer at 10 am. He worked quite well. I still see room for improvement, but he's doing a fantastic job.

Hank, my DP, has been fantastic. He's insightful and always has a good idea under his belt. Not to mention the fact that he's very knowledgeable as far as photography goes. He's got a good feel for it all.

We got some of the first scenes in the script in. The main set up. I think we shot a great deal. I'm wondering, having looked at the dailies, if we're gonna need so much for the intro.

Tomorrow is our shoot at the Rumbo offices. It might seem crazy, but there's still an actor missing. Two actually. I'm going to readjust the script to make the scenes a bit tighter and not require those two missing parts. I think I can make it work.

Here's some shots that Tonya and I took during the shoot.
