    Or Not To Shoot...

    We just weren't feeling it, so instead of shooting, Chris, Brigid, and I got dinner, talked about the film, and rescheduled the shoot for Thursday. After dinner, Chris and I did some tests using the new wireless microphone, which just arrived today, and got excited about the potential uses.

    I love making movies this way. I love being able to cancel the shoot and have dinner with friends when we aren't up to it. I can't imagine having to forge ahead and shoot anyway because we have to "make the day" or anything like that. It's much better this way. The stuff we will get on Thursday will be a lot better than what we would have gotten tonight, and we got to have dinner and enjoy each other's company. So yeah, it was a successful night, though no footage was shot. The camera tests with the microphone were quite helpful though.
