Shot from todays time on set. We managed to get all of the cafe scenes for Aarons film shot, however it required a lot of organisation and direction from myself to keep things moving. Props werent fully organised, one person had a breakdown, one person shutdown mentally, and only one extra had been confirmed at last minute as the casting call was only put out late last night, amidst a huge misunderstanding with the 2IC of the cafe in Queens park. I played damage control and managed to clear up that situation with her but I still dont think Aaron fully understands just how bad that situation could have been, purely because of the way he approached the conversations.
I am starting to feel like a director, producer, props master and production manager all smashed into one, considering I have organised 80% of the props and locations for all three films so far and I have no doubt that if I take a step back next week, there is going to be major time delays with everything and filming is going to drag out even longer. Which is the last thing I need, as I am struggling to keep up with everything schoolwise as it is. Herding cats is the current analogy that has been running through my head the last couple of days.
