Today we shot day 8 of Earthkiller. Our call time on set was noon and we got everyone on the 9:32pm train. But of course call time for the set crew was at 9am which meant I was on set at 8. So a little bit of tiredness is going on.

At the same time, I'm very happy with how everything looks. We had some fabulous performances too.

I love the way these opening scenes worked.
I had an epiphany in the shower this morning before coming to set. I wanted the camera to rotate on the Z axis in a close-up on
Helen (Maduka pointed out this is just like the shot in
Psycho, and he's right). But I don't have a rig that will let me rotate the camera that way -- especially not on a tripod.
But what we CAN do is take high-resolution stills and rotate them in AfterEffects. If nothing else is moving in the shot that would totally work. And it did. So it will.
