We had to go to the equipment house to pickup our lights and grip equipment. We (my producer and I) ran down to the address given to us, and promptly found ourselves sitting in front of the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. Right address, definitely wrong business.
Don't get me wrong, I love a chocolate C stand as much as you do, but once the lights warm up they start to melt.
After several frantic phone calls we found out where this place actually was, and that was on the far, far opposite side of town. So on the day we needed to be speedy quick, we were over an hour and a half late getting started.
Once that was settled we got moving and managed to get everything done on time. However, this brings us to the other issue that has popped up.
Have you looked outside today? Do you see puffy white flakes falling from the sky? I do.
And I hate them. So, so much.
While snow doesn't affect our story so much, just the fact that it's there makes our lives several gazillion times more difficult. If it melts once we've started, our continuity screws up. If it melts, it's gonna be muddy outside. If it stays, it's gonna be slippery and cold and generally miserable.
In short, lame. If you know a particularly effective sun dance, please perform it in worship to the weather deity of your choice, and we'll make sure to give you a credit in the film.
Shooting starts tomorrow, 8:30 am. Wish us luck.
P.S. Isn't is April right now?
