To Build A Mine
The first week of set construction has come to a close! The crew has been hard
at work trying to build the most realistic cave set possible! The Crew
took a trip to Gold Country earlier in the week and got the chance to
come face-to-face with some honest-to-goodness mines from the late
1800's! We spent some time inside the "Big Haul" as well as the "Gold
Gulch" mine! The folks at the Gold Gulch Museum in Coarsegold really
helped us out with tons of useful information and even arranged for our
whole crew to go 150ft into a cave! More on all that to come later!
Also be sure to check out the DVD when it is released for all the
fantastic behind-the-scenes info on the making of! So set building is
going great, all the hard work of the design team is really paying
off! We will have pictures to update with early next week.
Fiona
and I have been hard at work breaking down the script and planning all
the awesome stuff to go into the film! I have to say we're both pretty
excited and cannot wait to share with the rest of the crew - we think
they'll be excited as well! Fiona is also acting as our UPM &
Script Supervisor for this project! She's doing an outstanding job and
we're having a lot of fun getting all the details lined up for
production! She's a natural! There will be more on this process later
on.
The crew is in great spirits as things are coming together and we can't wait to get on set!
