Movie Diary #2

Well....now I am pissed off and frustrated.

For the moment anyways.

Day #2 of shooting totally sucked.  We got only a few things accomplished.  And by 'we' I mean Matt and I.

After getting up at 6.30 and getting ready....totally stoked for the 'long day ahead,' (I had four pages of script I planned to have finished, which may not seem like a lot, but it is) I was ready to leave my house at 7.30.  I thought I had better give Matt a call to see if Desi and the new cast member Ryan had gotten there yet.  I had told her to be there b/w 7.30 and 8.

I call....no answer.

I wait until 8...no answer.

I thought maybe Matt was still asleep and Desi and Ryan would be outside trying to get in.  So I decide just to go ahead and leave and try to get him up when I get there.  As I'm pulling out Matt calls my cell and I tell him I'm on my way and hang up.  (no service......screw you, cingular)  So when I get there I'm told that "Oh yeah...Ryan can't make it until Noon, so Desi's just not gonna get up."  Yeah....this is information I needed LAST NIGHT.  Now, sure...I had told Desi last night....probably 10ish that I was tired of waiting for Matt online so I was going to go ahead and go to bed (big day ahead) and that I would see her at 8.

So whenever the plans changed....I didn't even get a cell phone message.  Matt was at Adam's house the night before, and could have at least given me a call, b/c I'm assuming he was there kind of late.

So, after waking Matt up when he had little sleep, we just decided to go ahead and try to shoot some bits and wait for Desi to wake up.  We could do a bit more with her, then when Ryan got there we could shoot like some mofos.  Well after repeated calls to her, at about 11:40 a.m. she said she had a rough night and just needed to sleep.  And we had no word from Ryan.

So the only thing we could do was splat Matt's car with mustard.  The Matt got pissed b/c it wasn't coming off after we washed it.  (It's fine now, though)

Sigh...So that's it for "Movie" Shooting Day #2:
1. Matt driving inside car
2. Matt's car driving past
3. Car wash
4. Mustard splat

Famous last words to an Instant Message:
"See you early......long day ahead."
