The Business


3/29 – The group meets to discuss the location for the Thursday shoot.


3/31 – The class meets with only the members who are going to be present at the shoot that night. Jayy, C.J., Ann and Jon arrive at the Rotunda at Pellissippi State’s Goins building to set up for that night’s shoot. The four actors arrive and we try to shoot. C.J. is on boom, Ann is on Camera, Jayy directs. Due to constant interruptions from people passing through the area that we are shooting in, we scrap that nights shoot and re-schedule for Saturday at 1:00 p.m. at the Rotunda. Ann finishes the script for the TnCIS script and gives it to Jayy and C.J.


4/2 – Jayy, Ann, C.J. and Erik meet with the four actors to re-shoot the scene in the Rotunda. A wedding is supposed to take place there at three o’clock, (much to our surprise) so we set up quickly but run into problems with the audio. Jayy and Ann set up the audio, first to a Marantz through a mixer, which proved unsuccessful, and then through the mixer into a camera. C.J. ran the camera responsible for the audio while Ann ran the main camera. C.J. also had to hold a battery door shut on the wireless microphone to keep the actor’s mic on. Erik was to monitor the audio. Although the shoot was unpleasant at times, we got it shot and in the can. A stressful but successful day!
