The System Shoot: Day One

We just wrapped up our first shooting day at Keldon Ancheta's apartment, and we only broke one end table and a few capillaries. I guess we'll be making a trip to IKEA early next week. Sorry, Keldon — but thanks for putting up with all the chaos.

On set today: Director Juan Antonio del Rosario, D.P. Bo Hakala, Sound Technician Bill Prouty, Stand-in D.P. T.J. (yes, that darn Bo left us for Germany), Actor Nathan Christopher, and Host Keldon Ancheta. Oh, and me. I guess I was there, too — probably bitching about not moving fast enough.

First Full-Cast Meeting

Ok, so it wasn't really a full-cast meeting. Our full cast just doesn't fit in the back room of the Wilde Roast — and those Wilde Roast scones are to die for — so we met with the main players.

Thanks to Chuck Olsen for taking this photo, which I so boldly (translate as "grossly") swiped off his flickr page. Chuck is going to be playing a Nerve. It's just so right.
