So I almost wrote “week dos” in the title, but then I thought, this
is a psuedo-French movie. Anyway, I can’t believe we are on our third
week of pre-production.
Last week we had a lot of PreVis meetings and just tried to get
everything organized to continue on with casting and locations. We
figured out the art department is going to need to do a lot of tests
for set walls, makeup, hair and costumes. Those have to come in the
next few weeks.
But for all that to happen, we need a cast. Tuesday, the producers
and I spent 3.5 hours watching 42 people audition and we filled a lot
of our background roles, as well as our main girl character. Have a
couple of possibilities for the main male character. The art dept is in
desperate need of sizes for wardrobe.
We still have a lot of PrePro to get finished in the next three-four
weeks (locations, screen tests, etc). Our first shoot day is April 1st.
