Production Diary
8-09-2004: Edits done. This movie turned out much funnier than I expected. People who dig on smoking fetishes are gonna love it, too. The split-screen effect came out very nearly perfect!
7-26-2004: Recorded myself washing dishes for the foley. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
7-25-2004: Okay, thanks to ready-on-the-spot preparedness and having a car, we were able to get the shoot done tonight. That was cool! Lots of good footage, and learned some more pecadilloes about this camera when doing close-up work. Gotta remember to just insist on using the manual focus. The one thing I don't like about this camera (and I can't worry too much about it because it's old and cheap) is that I cannot manually set the white balance to wherever I want. That's bothersome.
7-18-2004: Another scheduling glitch. 8(
7-11-2004: We were gonna shoot tonight, but Emily fell ill.
6-20-2004: Script complete. Emily agrees to play Cherie.
